================================

Judging by their placement as living on Main Street in Wecota, they likely lived in a private house. The one bedroom apartment in the rear of the bank building was not large enough and the enumeration states they owned their home. Some earlier bankers and businessmen with no family resided at the North Hotel immediately across the street.

The Wecota State Bank failed in 1926; I am not sure if John Unruh was still there at that time. I have some original bank books from there. KG
