Herbert Edwin Kontzie, the third son of Edwin John and Rosetta (Schooley), was born in 1919. Herb was going to become a farmer and would have taken over the farm from his parents, but he died at the age of 24 when his plane was shot down during World War II, in 1943. He was a gunner on the bottom of the plane, which crashed into the English Channel.
