    • Thomas' birth year is a bit confusing. There is no WWI draft card for Thomas born in 1900. The October 9, 1903 date, on his death certificate, more closely matches the 1920 census and his marriage records. His death certificate informant was his second wife. The only Wolpert born in Jefferson County, Kentucky in 1903 was his sister.
