I am not related to any Dhoms but found a trunk of their stuff (Karl and Alva) in my mom's basement. I don't know very much about them except that they where childless and she lived in Seattle before she died. I believe that she died in the 1940s or 1950s but I may be wrong. Prior to moving west, he was a printer somewhere in the midwest. I have a communion certificate for Karl Dhom, written in German, from April 5, 1891. Pictures indicate that either he or she was one of many children. If I can find any of the associated family, they might like the pictures.
