*Her father Arnoldus Te Stroete died in 1865, and consequently her mother Louise (nee Heiden) remarried a Friedrich Grasse so the 3 Te Stroete children used the Grasse surname when they were very young. They would eventually use their correct surname, but would "corrupt" the spelling to "Stroota".
Although the birth year of 1863 is engraved on Caroline's gravestone, her year of birth was actually 1862 (per the Wisconsin, U.S., Births and Christenings Index, 1801-1928). Her older brother Albert Stroota's birth date was recorded as 09 Nov 1863 in his obituary.
(To further complicate the chronology of mother Louise Grasse nee Heiden's children, their half-sibling Louise Helen Grasse was actually born in 1866 (although her gravestone is erroneously engraved with the birth year of 1863)*
