  Notes	The boys mother, Mary Kane, died just 21 days after the twins were born. Their Aunt, Elizabeth (Looney) Wark agreed to raise them and in May 1877, went to Kansas City, MO to pick them up and take them to her home in Valparaiso, Indiana. Elizabeth's husband waas John Wark. When Charles married LaVanchie Margaret Cool, he still used the name Looney. It wasn't until sometime after 17 December 1911, that he started using the name Wark out of respect and love for the only father he really knew.
