The legend for identifying various family members by name was originally drawn up by Margaret G. Griess, with help identifying members by Bill Griess' mother, Natalie W. Griess. Information from that legend has been transposed into a new format by superimposing a small identifying number on each individual family member, which then relates to the list of names that follows below:

  1. Karl Emrich Eilers —Husband of Leonie Jeanette Wurlitzer Eilers.
  2. Howard Eugene Wurlitzer —2nd child of Rudolph and Leonie Wurlitzer.
  3. Farny Reginald Wurlitzer —6th child of Rudolph and Leonie Wurlitzer.
