Note from Betty: This is my great-great grandfather, Folkert W. Gerdes. His
tombstone says Folker W. Gerdes, died Feb. 26, 1884 Aged 49 yrs 4 m 3d. Based
on his birth record in Germany, I think the age at death is not correct. Church records there have him born
Oct. 20, 1833. When he died, his widow Mary E. Ray married William Franken.
