Notes |
- Frank "Top" Manovich, son of Maggie Gentz was raised by his Uncle Frank Gentz and wife Odile.
He was also nurtured to manhood by another aunt on his father's side, Annette Manovich Chase. This was related in a forum on Ancestry, posted by Marie Manovich, which stated, "I know I talked with Annetta when I was in my 20's but I was so young. It was a sister in law of Margarette. She raised Frank Manovich. HE was my Father in laws brother."
Top is buried at Forest Lawn Cemetery between Frank and his first wife, Maude Williams Gentz.
