    Notes:

    John Sonnenberg woked for Standard Oil in Aruba. He and another employee, Mr. Kerrigan, invented an improved method of processing crude oil.

    Obit--

    John J. Sonnenberg, died at the age of 65 at his home in Elizabeth, NJ. Mr. Sonnenberg was a groceryman in Hartford, IL and was then employed at Std Oil Co. in Wood River, IL at the time of its construction, then later at the refinery in Aruba until being transferred to Elizabeth, NJ. He was one of the 11 children of the late George and Anna Sonnenberg who predeceased him, as did 5 brothers, 2 sisters, his wife, and 2 children. He is survived by 2 sons, Hudson Sonnenberg of Linden, NJ and Morris Sonnenberg of Lebanon, Il and 4 sisters: Theresa Owens of Wood river, Elizabeth Hemmer of O'Fallon, Margaret Mayer of St. Louis, and Alberta Biggs of St. Louis.

    Note: a female was born to John Joseph Sonnenberg and his wife Estella Hawk Sonnenberg, it was apparently sometime before the birth of Hudson, but nobody knows anything else about it other than that she did not survive.

    John Sonnenberg was born in KS but moved to Il as a small child. He was living in Franklin County at the time of his marriage to Estella Hawk in 1912, it is supposed that he was there with his uncle, Daniel Sonnenberg. It is not clear how John and Estella met, she had recently moved from Iron County, MO to Madison Co, IL, perhaps they met there but this is only a guess.

    During their early years, John and Estella owned a grocery store in Hartford, IL and lived upstairs with their 3 children. The store went out of business eventually, most likely due to the depression and the inability of people to pay their bills. After closing the store, Estella opened a restaurant and John worked for Std Oil.. They were relocated to Aruba about 1931, and then transferred to NJ about 1938. John and Stella owned a large house in Elizabeth, NJ and rented out some rooms for extra income.

    John married HAWK Mary Estelle on 11 Nov 1912 in Franklin County, IL. Mary (daughter of HAWK William and LONDON Martha A) was born in Feb 1894 in Ironton, MO; died in May 1949 in Elizabeth, NJ; was buried in St. Gertrude's Cemetery, Colonia, NJ. [Group Sheet]

    Notes:

    Hudson was the oldest surviving child of John and Estella Sonnenberg, born in Hartford, IL. Hudson and his future wife Adair were neighbors in IL and later met in Aruba where both their parents were working for Standard Oil. Hudson and Adair married in Aruba and had their first two children there, they left to come back to the US when it was apparent that war was imminent. Hudson was drafted to serve in WWII and was stationed for a while in Atlantic City, NJ where his wife and 3 children visited him on weekends. After an honerable discharge due to severe medical problems but with a highly satisfactory rating and a promotion to corporal, Hudson left the army in 1943. He held a few odd jobs but then was hired as a stock broker by Merril Lynch brokerage firm. He later broke away from Merril Lynch and formed his own stock brokerage firm at the Waldorf Astoria in NY. After one year he established his firm in Linden, NJ where the family was residing. Hudson died unexpectedly of a stroke shortly before his 4

    Hudson often spoke of his mother's birthplace and the caves nearby where he would go to play as a child. The caves had been inhabited by the likes of Jesse James and the Dalton Boys at some time according to local lore and Hudson remained fascinated with Western lore all of his life. He was a tall and handsome man with black hair and striking blue eyes, a meticulous dresser and was well spoken. He had a great sense of humor and playfullness and his early death was a great loss to the family.

    Hudson married Living (daughter of HARRIS Edwin Milton and EXTON Mary Margaret) [Group Sheet]

    Notes:

    The cause of death was gas poisoning and it is unclear if the death was accidental or a suicide. It was reported in the papers that Jackie had two gas burners on at time of his death, with all windows closed. Stella reported in the newspapers that her son had been despondant and going for treatment. To this day, most family members are convinced it was an accident.

    Stella had helped Jackie to purchase a home where he could rent out rooms to make an income. Jackie had just moved into the home and been there but a few days when he died. Stella had apparently come to check on him as she did every day, and found the body.

    Jackie was remembered by all as a quiet and gentle soul who never hurt anyone and who was very sweet and caring. He apparently was the baby sitter for the children of his brother Hudson and his sudden death was a blow to his mother which she never quite recovered from.
