Here's a little info on Dutch:

Robert H. Revelle
B. 1882, Virginia.

In 1910 he was living in Tanner Creek, VA, at his in-laws with his wife and two boys. By 1920, the family was living on their own. Dutch was working as a pipe fitter in a Navy Yard in Norfolk, VA. He passed away prior to 1936, as his widow Grace is listed as such in Norfolk city directories from that period, extending into the 1940's. She lived at 208 East 27th St. in Norfolk. The house appears to be torn down, replaced now by a grassy area which extends for the area of a city block.

The youngest son, Castellaine, worked as a bricklayer in Norfolk. Born on Feb. 22, 1908, he died in Norfolk on May 22, 1989.

Dutch's eldest son, Granville, was born on Oct. 13, 1905 in Nevada and passed away in June of 1985 in Norfolk. He worked as an attendant for the Master Auto Service Corporation, and also worked as a bricklayer for Snow & King. He travelled a fair amount by ship, with recorded trips to Bordeaux, France, Liverpool, England and Sondre Stomfjord, Sweden. He also sailed to San Juan, Puerto Rico in 1941. Oddly, Granville's house has also been razed.
