    Walter James Hogan was the son of Lewis Eugene Hogan (who was about 75% German and 25% Northern-Irish ancestry) and Annabelle Surber (who was about 75% English/British and 25% German ancestry).

    As usual, there is Swiss-German and Alsatian in her family tree.

    Mary Lafreniere was of French-Canadian descent. I don’t think Walter’s currently listed parents are correct.

    No Irish with a surname like Hogan?

    Huntsman may sound German too but I will check it later.
