Notes:
- There are no known family pictures of Rosina, Anna Rosa, Josephine, or Jennie Meyerhofer.
- There is no known birth record for Elsie Dorothy Meyerhofer. The 1900 Federal Census of Henry Meyerhofer Sr. list her age as ten and birth date as June 1889.
- Her mother died March 21,1891 which makes the date of Elsie's birth on her death certificate June 02, 1891 impossible. The June 1889 date is probably correct.
- The 1900 Federal Census of August Meyerhofer list Mary as his wife. The assessor surely made a mistake because August was married to Josephine at this time.
- The date of birth (1870) on Josephine headstone does not agree with the date of birth on her death certificate (April 17, 1871).
