Parents of William F. Dinklage

Here is a post about William F. Dinklage, Bessie's father, that comes from someone I have come across before regarding the Herring family I'm looking into, but I've never been able to contact. I'll have to see if the mailing address is one I have tried before. Bessie is the daughter of William F. Dinklage and his wife, listed below as Annice Rosetta Humphrey.
