Additional Comments:
Note:  Born to Charles & Josephine (Klama) Goniwicha.  In his younger years 
he went by the name of Roman(1900 census and marriage record to Clara).  By 
1918, he was going by the name of Raymond.  Shortly after his 15th birthday, 
his mother died (March 10,1910) and about 2 weeks later, the family home 
caught fire.  His father split up the children and sent them to live with 
relatives so it is possible that he was sent to live with an uncle.
