    Other Events and Attributes:

    • Census: 21 Apr 1910, Stevens Point, Portage, WI
    • Census: 2 Jan 1920, Stevens Point, Portage, WI
    • Census: 3 Apr 1930, Stevens Point, Portage, WI

    Notes:

    Birth:
    The Kroll genealogy lists John's birth year as 1884 although all census data (1920 & 1930) indicates a birth year of 1886. His tombstone bears the date of 1885.

    Note:
    The Kroll genealogy lists the marriage of John and Caroline as 1915. The 1920 census at 510 Franklin St., Stevens Point, WI lists John and Caroline with 5 children: Erwin, son, age 10; xxxxxd., son age 9 (illegible); Richard, 5; Norbert, 2 11/12; and Loretta, 4/12. The 1930 census states that John was first married at age 25 or between 1909 and 1911 depending on the birth year used. It states that Caroline was first married at age 31 or between 1912 and 1915 depending on the birth year used. I find in the 1910 census at 408 Franklin St., Stevens Point, WI a John S. and Josephine Worzalla with a son, Erwin aged x/12 (illegible). John is listed as a salesman for a dry good store. The Stevens Point Journal lists the wedding announcement of John S. Worzalla and Josephine Dayo. John is listed as being from Winona (MN). Listed as attendants are Vincent and Mary Worzalla, brother and sister of the groom and Frances Dayo, sister of the bride. They are to make their home at 408 Franklin St., Stevens Point. Josephine is the daughter of Stanislaus Dayo of Stevens Point. An article in the Stevens Point Journal lists a real estate transaction between John and Josephine Worzalla occuring in 1912. An obituary is available for purchase, printed late March 1914 for a Mrs. John (Josephine) Worzalla from the Portage County GenWeb site. The obituary of Richard Worsalla states his birthdate as Mar. 7, 1914. An obituary for Stanislaus Dayo in 1928 does not list a daughter Josephine as surviving him.
    My guess is that John Worzalla was married twice, first to Josephine Dayo and second to Caroline Kroll and that he had three sons by Josephine.
