NOTE: Theodore & Josephine (Vogt) Host, had a son, ERNEST HOST, #56947981, who was born 19 July 1890, in Grand Rapids, Kent Co., MI, and died 20 November 1891, in Newberry, Luce Co., MI, and is buried in Forest Home Cemetery in Newberry. The dates on Ernest's 'Find A Grave' memorial do not match the dates of his official birth and death records. I have put in a request for a photograph of his gravestone to help clarify the issue.
They also had another son (not linked below), LAWRENCE NICHOLAS HOST, M.D., who was born 1 August 1892, in Newberry, Luce Co., MI. On his WWII Draft Registration Card of 1942, Lawrence was a self-employed doctor at 9953 E. Forest, in Detroit, MI, and was living with his wife, Gertrude C. Host, at 8925 E. Jefferson, in Detroit, MI. Lawrence's date of death and final resting place are not known.
