*According to Wisconsin birth records, the Crummie (or Crummey) childrens' parents were John Forrest Crummie and Lillie Eleda Edelstein, so Grace's mother had been married before.
The Crummie name was spelled two different ways for the two children above: Jennie birth was listed as Crummey and Leonard's birth name was listed as Crummie

In 1910 the Wilson family was living in Madison, Dane, Wisconsin.
