Krumhar timeline reworked Sorting through the various spellings and MIS-spellings in Ryland Krumhar’s history was a challenge. While he and his family changed the spelling three, maybe four times, the media, census takers and record keepers also shuffled and changed the letters often. The continuity of his life in records was often traced through his profession, relatives and locations.
