Note: Agget's maiden name has been difficult to pin down, as family trees on Ancestry show it as MAJEWSKI, MAJACESKA, or some variation thereof. Nicholas' obituary gives her maiden name as SUMANUK. To date I have not been able to locate them in the 1925 Iowa State Census, which would list her parents and clear up this matter. They are not named on her Death Certificate, which simply lists them as 'unknown'. Interment was in St. Joseph Cemetery. -JS
