  • Notes 
    • Arthur was a severe asthmatic. He went to Arizona where he was better able to breathe. He got homesick for his family and came back east but could not breathe. Luther and Mary, his parents gave him their Ford touring car and placed all of the money that they had into a little bag and had Leotta hide it in her bra. They set out to Arizona on October 13, 1928 and arrived in Tucson on October 25, 1928. His parents and family back east heard very little from him after he left and then eventually never heard from him again. It was rumored that Arthur and Leotta divorced and that they remarried. They had a son.
