    Notes 
    • By year of birth, he should be a natural son of Iver. However, both his first name and middle name relate to Lester Burghardt’s family. The 1930 census shows his father was born in Norway. It seems likely that he was renamed after his mother’s remarriage.

      In Beverly’s birth record, he is Mark Lester Burghardt. That is also the name on his gravestone.

      In the 1940 census, he and Ardath and girls live in Angora Twp, St. Louis County, where Mark was a Postmaster for the post office. He had had two years of college. Ardath had had three years of high school.

      By 1943, he and Ardath had moved to Seattle.

      In the 1948 Seattle directory, he is living with his parents in Seattle and Ardath has her own apartment. Mark was a bridge tender.

      He enlisted in the U.S. Army in Fort Lewis, Washington, on 16 Jun 1945. His civil occupation is electrician.
