Description

Brothers Carl and Robert Linaweaver as young boys. Carl is pictured sitting on a chair with Robert standing beside him.

Their parents were Lawrence Lawson (1903-1962) and Essie Marie (Brill) (1904-1963) Linaweaver (although some records spell the name as “Lineweaver”).

When he registered for the WWII draft, Carl worked at the Safeway Store in Front Royal but lived on Spring Street in Woodstock. He served in the U.S. Navy Reserves from December 1944 to July 1946. Sometime later, he married Lavine Estelle (Gulick) (1919-1982), a woman from West Virginia, who worked as a waitress in a restaurant.

Robert served in the U.S. Army from May 1943 to Dec 1945. After, he married Emily Isabel (Hollar) (1924-2017) in 1946. She was a nurse and the daughter of Lester Granville and Mazie Irene (Lambert) Hollar. When they married, Robert was a 21-year old service station operator in Edinburg. The couple had five children: Robert Jr., Sue, Rebecca, William, and Richard “Dicky”.
