Notes: Albert was killed in a railway accident in Campbell, Minn. in 1906. He was working for the Great Northern Railroad working the train and the points (frogs)single handed when his foot caught between the rails. The story goes that rather than live with one leg he did not move out of the path of the car that killed him. His partner, who could have saved him, had been dropped of en-rooute to the yard at Benson about 100 miles S.E. of Breckenridge.

Buster was raised by his granparents, Cyrus and Julia and the older sisters of Albert, along with his uncle Robert G. Alberts younger brother.
