Joseph Thomas Kerker (J.T.)
J.T. pictured here became Rosa’s favorite brother. Their mutual talent in music lasted their entire lives. Thanks to ongoing contact with J.T’s great grandson, newspaper clippings, additional photos, and wills, I was able to write the truth about this talented, hard-working and ambitious individual. Special thanks to the Minnesota Historical Society library for this great picture.
