Alvira Haun ^{1 2 3 4}

   Another name for Alvira was Elvira Haun.

  General Notes:

The 1890 marriage register lists her name as Alvira Randall and on the line immediately underneath is written Alvira Haun. Her father's name was listed as David Haun so it is safe to assume that her maiden name must have been Haun. Usually when a bride has two surnames listed, it usually means the current one was probably her first married name with her actual maiden name list underneath. However, the marriage register also indicates that this was her first marriage so that must be a mistake.
