He enlisted in WW 1 lists Minnie Marie as wife. His parents were from Germany. I looked through censes for 1920 and 1930. No children were listed in either census. And, of course it is too early for the 1940 census to be out.

Notes:

Nellie married Fred Benjamin. I gave you that information in a previous email. In 1910 They were living in Kansas City Ward 14, Jackson, Missouri
They had three sons. Loren age 5 born in KS, Robert age 4 born in KS and Carl, born in Missouri.
In 1920 Census Nellie is married to Gilbert Grey. They are living in Kansas City Ward 5 and William Schrader is living with them. I haven't found a marriage date yet. Carl Grey (was Benjamin) is living with them. Now he is 11. He must have been adopted. The other sons are not listed.
In 1920, Fred Benjamin is living as a lodger in Buffalo, Ward 24, New York in a Church home. His sons Robert age 14 and Leon age 15 are there, too. States he is divorced.
In 1930, Fred Benjamin is living with wife Francis still in Buffalo. They have a son William living with them. The census states he was born in Georgia so I think he was the son of Francis who was also from Georgia, not Fred and that Fred adopted him.
I am quitting for the night. Enjoy the new exploration of family. Probably this is more than you wanted to know. Thanks so much for your help.
