  • Last Edited: 10 Jan 2021
  • Wilson Jay Klock was born on 27 July 1889, Jackson Township, Northumberland County, PA.1,2,3
  • It is not clear who was Wilson's biological father. His death certificate lists his parents as "William Straw" and "Tina Klock Lahr," probably referring to Elventina Lahr Straw, who was married to William F. Straw. William Straw, however, was only 10 years older than Willson Klock, so it is unlikely that he was the father. More probable is that Elventine Lahr was either married to or had a relationship with a sofar unidentified Klock who was Wilson biological father. To make matters more confusing, Elventina Shaw's obiruary lists WIlson as her "stepson."3,4,5
  • He married Lucinda Raker.1
  • Wilson Jay Klock died on 21 August 1966, Community Hospital, Sunbury, Northumberland County, PA, at age 77.1,6,3
