Notes

The name Moraweck has been written many ways, including Marawetz (as on the ship list showing the arrival in America of Ernest's father) and Morawick. However, the most common, and the one that appears on the wills of both Ernest and his father and on the tombstones of his parents, in Tell City, Indiana is Moraweck.
