Irvin and Cora also raised 2 foster sons:
Jean H (b 1915) and
Linton M (b 1917-1990) whose parents were Helga (Bang) and Karl Miller from Denmark. Helga died in 1919 and Karl for some reason couldn't care for the boys so Irvin and Cora took them in. Not sure if they adopted the boys but the boys did use the surname Olson instead of Miller.
