  • Notes 
    • According to Sharon Gerber, Nicklaus had 9 children. John was the oldest. When he was old enough to work on his own, he moved away. While he was gone, the rest of his siblings caught diphtheria, and each child died. Later, Joseph was born. My guess is that John Moser moved from Forrest, IL to work in Bern, Kansas. When his siblings died, his parents moved to be with him, which is why Joseph was born in Bern.
