  • Notes 
    • excerpt of the McCorkell family notes, by Rev. Edmund McCorkell, source www.ramarahistoryonline.net (circa1971)

      And now we come to the third member of the Pete McCorkell family. This is Doris , sister to Leo, Norene and Joseph, and wife of Ray Braun, a pattern designer in Elkhart, Indiana. Doris and Ray have two sons and a daughter, all born in Superior, before their parents moved to Indiana. The eldest, Douglas, interrupted his college course and married young. He has musical talent and a beautiful voice. Terrance is the second boy. In his college years he was a first class swimmer and diver, and almost made the American Olympic Team. He too is married and has a family in Elkhart. So Doris is a grandmother many times. Her youngest grandchild is Linda?s son, John Burger, a few months old at the present time (Feb. 1971) living at Milwaukee, where his father is a radio and television operator. Ray Braun did an excellent business in Elkhart for 15 years or thereabouts, but unfortunately his health began to decline at this point and he finally died in early middle age. It was a sad blow to Doris, who loved her husband very much, but she bore the loss bravely for the sake of the children at school. God will reward her for her courageous effort to carry the family burden alone.
