Spouse Notes:
While living in St. Florian through his childhood, his mother was a postmaster
and his father owned a little country store beside their house, which they
rented. He attended St. Florian School for several years. In 1905, his family
moved to Florence, Alabama where he attended State Normal College, riding in
a horse and buggy each day to college. After graduating, with a degree in
business administration, he taught at Kilburn School. Robert then worked as
a bookkeeper at Florence Coal and Ice Co.
In 1915 his family moved back to St. Florian, where they built a big two-story
home with a fireplace in every room. They had a 1,400 acre farm where they
raised corn, hay, irish and sweet potatoes, and raised animals like turkeys,
cattle, pigs, chickens, horses and mules. They had an orchard and made their
own cider and vinegar. He was drafted in 1918 and called to duty in France.
He was on the front line in the trenches when he got appendicitis and had to
go the the hospital for an operation which probably kept him from being killed
on the front line of battle. He was discharged on March 7, 1919 at the age of 26.
A few months later he got married to Carrie Rasch. They first lived in a rented
farmhouse, then they moved in to live in his parents' house until their house was
built, across the road from his parents. Robert died suddenly at the Florence
Elks Club where he had gone for lunch. He was administrator of PMA and was serving
as treasurer of Florence Elks Club at the time of his death.

"Biggest Pine Dedicated to Biggest Fan"
"Giant Loblolly Pine Tree Dedicated to it's 'father'"
The Alabama Forestry Commission in November, 1982, dedicated a 14 story tall
champion pine tree - the largest in Alabama - to the memory of William Julius Macke
and banned all cutting within a five acre area of the tree. A ceremony dedicating
the tree was organized by friends and attended by family, friends and members of
the media. It was a fitting ceremony for a champion man.

Julia felt that the name of each person in the chart should have at least one line
written about them. In the 1940 Federal Census Mary Rasch, the widow Josephine [Rasch]
Mecke and her two children, Julia Rasch and Joseph Rasch were all living together
on their farm.
