He was born April 15, 1881 (WWI Draft Cards) to Haken and Christine Hazelgreen of Lake Station.
By the 1910 Census, he had moved to Washington State, and there he stayed, I gather, and there lie his earthly remains.
The photographer was A.O. Merrill of Hobart, Indiana, who, as we know, was in business from the autumn of 1899 to the autumn of 1902. The fact that William (he seemed to prefer his middle name) was around to be photographed in that era suggests he should have been counted in the local 1900 Census, but I cannot find him. The Lake Station/East Gary enumerator of 1900 seems to have been a bit overwhelmed by his task and has left us with some confusing records.
