Additional Info
Gerald Dean Shroyer was adopted from the Annie Wittenmyer home sometime before 1940. I know this because he is on the 1940 census living with his adoptive family. I have a picture of him right after he was adopted he looks to be about 2 years old so I'm estimating the adoption date between 1937 and 1939. Through Ancestry and DNA and a search angel I know his biological grandparents on his father's side were Anzonetta (Nettie) Nims and Ortha Wickham. His father has to be one of the Wickham sons. I do not have information on his biological mother. I'm searching for any birth family that's out there.
