  • Notes 
    • Changed name to Virball when he moved to Canada

      Mother and many siblings died in worldwide Influenza Pandemic abt 1918

      hard life in Lithuania, would sometimes comment that the dogfood they had in Montreal was better than what they had to eat growing up. Only had a basic potato stew to eat most of the time. The meat animals they had on the farm were sold. When they got meat it was because one of the animals had died or for some other reason was not able to be sold.
