Discussion & Notes

I have no idea where this person is before September of 1915 or after July of 1930. I still have no idea who the birth parents are for the three siblings, Lee-o-Netto, Caroline, & Henry Isaac Kanistanaux or why Dr. Lee is not found with her siblings in census covering the period of her childhood.
