Notes:

Origin of Henry Vogel:

Henry Vogel's census entries for 1900, 1910, and 1920 are all clearly for the same person - they show him with wife Wilhelmina/Mina/Minnie, and the same children. All show his birthplace as Illinois, and the 1900 census shows his birthdate as Sep 1861.

The birthplaces he gave for his parents:

1900 - Germany, Germany
1910 - Germany, Germany
1920 - Prussia, Hannover

In 1910 Henry and Mina Vogel lived next to George F, Louisa E., and Alvin T. Vogel. George was about seven years younger than Henry. Assuming that this George is likely Henry's younger brother, this may serve as an aid to finding Henry's parents.

After attending Southern Illinois University, Bill was graduated from the University of Illinois in 1942 with a degree in Vocational Agriculture. In 1949, he was awarded a Master of Science in Agriculture, also from the University of Illinois.
Bill was inducted into the U.S. Army in September 1942. He served with the US Army Air Corps Weather Service in the U.S., Rome and North Africa, where he trained weather briefers. His citations included the American Theater Ribbon, the EAME Theater Ribbon, the World War II Victory Medal, and a Good Conduct Medal. Bill received an honorable discharge in 1946.
Bill taught vocational agriculture in Brussels, Illinois, a small Calhoun County town north of St. Louis. He moved to Central Illinois in 1947 and worked for the Soil Conservation Service in Tuscola. He lived for a short time in Hume, where he owned a fertilizer business. He and his family then moved to Altamont, where he taught vocational agriculture at Altamont High School. In 1958, he moved to Effingham where he was Farm Service Representative, Trust Officer, and Vice President at the Effingham State Bank. He retired from the bank at the age of 62.
Always interested in music, he taught guitar to finance his college education. He studied violin at the University of Illinois with Paul Rolland. In his first teaching assignment in Brussels, he taught accordion and organized a student orchestra. He played in a dance band in the Tuscola area. While teaching at Altamont High School, he played trumpet with the high school summer band. For several years, he played the violin at Christmas Mass at Sacred Heart Church. In his later years, he entertained at nursing homes in the area with other musicians. Bill helped to organize Fine Arts — County of Effingham (FACE) and the FACE orchestra. He played violin in the FACE orchestra until he was 93 and continued to play the violin until he was 95.
His passion for music was equaled by his love of gardening. From the time he was a young teenager, he raised vegetables and flowers. He attended the first Master Gardener class sponsored by the Effingham County U of I Extension Service. In 1997, he was the first Effingham County resident to be named Illinois Outstanding Master Gardener by the University of Illinois. His garden in Effingham was a source of beauty for the neighborhood, and he donated vegetables to those in need. He was featured in a story, "Making the Garden Grow", in the Effingham Daily News March 7, 2001. For a number of years, he raised cattle on a farm West of Effingham.
A member of the Knights of Columbus for over 60 years, Bill was inducted into the Springfield Diocese Chapter Hall of Fame in October 2008. He joined the Tuscola council and received his Fourth Degree in Springfield in 1949. He served as the Deputy Grand Knight in the Tuscola council in the early 1950s and as Grand Knight in the Effingham council in 1956-58 and again in 1977. He was instrumental in the establishment of the Effingham Assembly Fourth Degree in 1963. He served as Chartered Faithful Navigator, Chancellor for the Degree Term, and membership director. He edited the council newsletter and attended state conventions. Bill also initiated the “chalice service” for the Effingham Assembly and until 2011 regularly assisted at the presentation of chalices in honor of deceased Knights.
As a child, William H. Rosso was a member of St Vincent’s Parish in St. Louis, where he made his first communion in 1924 and was confirmed in 1925. Bill was a member of Sacred Heart Parish in Effingham since 1958, serving as an usher and lector and helping in both the school and parish. He and his wife were members of the Confraternity for Christian Doctrine and assisted in educational programs for high school students at the parish. Bill and Elaine enjoyed traveling and participated in Elder Hostel trips in Europe and the United States.
During his years in Effingham County, Bill was active in community activities. For the Effingham County Fair, he served as Chairman of the parade committee, ran the vegetable exhibit and, for a time, was director of the Fair Board. He worked with the Effingham County Red Cross, serving as president of the chapter and fund-raising chairman. He was director of the Effingham County Soil Conservation District and organized a pasture improvement contest. Bill was also a member of the Board of the Effingham County 4-H Foundation, and in 1998, he served as its President.
Bill was a life member of the Effingham American Legion and VFW posts. In earlier years, he was a member of the Benevolent and Protective Order of the Elks, Lodge No. 1016, and attended a national convention as a member of the judging team.

Rosso, Jr. and Susan Drake Rosso of Gurnee, and Patricia Rosso and Robert Smilowitz of Brooklyn, New York.
