    Notes 
    • Olive, Alfred's daughter. remembered stories Alfred told his children about "Dynamite Pete, Scout and Grizzly".
      Celia was much opposed to these stories, as the four girls, Olive, Lola, Edith and Edna would all be to scared to
      go to bed and would all be in bed with dad when Celia came up to go to bed. Alfred worked as a telegrapher
      for the Union Pacific Railroad. He also worked at the Boys Industrial School teaching printing. In 1904 Alfred
      and Celia purchased the 'Hohneck House' a Bavaria, KS. landmark (then, it doesn't exist today). They used it
      as their home and as a restaurant/hotel. By 1907, (another record says 1905), they moved to Salina, KS .. and
      purchased the 'Pacific House', which was at the time a well known and popular hotel/restaurant and continued
      their home/restaurant business. Alfred took care of the children while Celia would over see the work and close
      the Hotel and cafe for the night. They moved to Kansas City, Kansas in 1912. Alfred's obituary states that he
      was a night watchman at the Griffin Wheel Company for 20 years prior to his retirement in 1935. Funeral
      records show he died at St. Mary's Hospital in Kansas City, Missouri, at the age of 71. The primary cause of
      death was pulmonary edema and the secondary cause was a strangulated hernia. Notes from Ceila's bible state
      that he died from a hernia operation at St. Mary's hospital, Kansas City, MO. His address at the time of death
      was 206 No. Valley, Kansas City, KS. This was the same house that Gordon May Jr. later purchased and raised
      his family. Alfred is buried at Memorial Park Cemetery, Kansas City, KS., next to other family members in
      Acacia Lawn.
