    Notes 
    • Born in the USA. This is confirmed by the 1920 Census records. In 1920, Simon was unmarried and living with his parents.

      Registered for the draft on September 9, 1918, in Balsam Lake. He is shown to be of medium height and build with blue eyes. He is living on his parents’ farm in Amery, Wisconsin. Although his birthday is shown as September 30, 1898, he is shown as 20 years old, so the 1897 birthdate shown in the SSDI may be correct.

      In the 1930 census, Simon is divorced and living with his 14 year-old cousin Nels on a rented dairy farm in Lincoln Township of Polk County, Wisconsin. Simon is shown as having been 22 when he was first married. Both men were born in Wisconsin and both men’s parents were born in Sweden.

      In the 1940 census, Simon (indexed as Volgaer) lives with Armella in Lincoln Twp, Polk County, Wisconsin. Both of them live in the same house they lived in in 1935.

      He was one of Jonas Jonsson’s pallbearers.
