  • Notes 
    • In November, 1936, Russell and Hazel lived at 135 Park Street, Corry, Pa. "Russ" worked for Aero Supply Manufacturing Corporation at 611 W. Main street in Corry.

      In Februray, 1943, the Dunnihoos lived at 509 W. 6th St. in Erie, Pa. Russ and Hazel owned Rohlm Manfacturing Company, 561 E. 18th St. in Erie, and they manufactured fuel system components for fighter aircraft. It is believed the company name was derived from the initials of their names, Russell and Hazel, and the names of their daughter and son-in-law, Margaret and Lynn. Lynn Bisbee worked for Rohlm during the War. After the war, Rohlm manufactured domestic items (such as automatic floor mops). Within a couple of years Rohlm closed its doors. Both Russ and Lynn went to work for General Electric Company in Erie. Russ was a draftsman and Hazel became an accountant for various businesses in Erie. [14]
