Inaccuracies in family life, based on daughter's interview
[edit]Although Woody's mother died in 1920, when he was 8, his father was still alive. His father was born in Indiana to German immigrant parents (not French or Scottish). At the time of his wife's death in 1920, Woody's father was 65 years old and in failing health. After living with various adult children (Woody's siblings), he moved back to Indiana, where he passed away at the home of a sister in 1932.
