Laurine's children included Innes Koehn (Malinda's nephew) who raised his family at the Hutch assembly in the early 1950's. See '''Koehn''' family.

They seemed to enjoy the meetings and were faithful in attendance. January 1st they were on their way to the hall for the gospel meeting they ran into a truck loaded with 2 1/2 inch pipe. Mrs. Koehn and her mother were both killed, and Mr. Koehn is in a hospital with two broken collar bones, compound fracture of right arm, chest bones broken, and he has coronary thrombosis and suffers from shock. I had the funeral at Halstead for the two women. It was large. There must have been many hundreds of people there, many of whom have not the gospel where they go. We trust that the gospel given then may bear fruit. There are five boys in the Koehn family. The mother and grandmother are in heaven, and the father is in the hospital and may never again be able to earn a livelihood. The prayers of God's people for this family are sincerely requested."

Nicholas "Nick" Jim Pirovolicos "Piros" was born on [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ikaria Ikaria] Island in the Aegean Sea southeast of Greece. He and his wife Opal raised their children in Scott City, Kansas where he owned the "Car Cafe". ''The Scott Republican'' reported in Jan. 5, 1922, "Nick Piros, the Car Cafe cook and proprietor, on west Fifth St. showed us a wedding anniversary cake, yesterday, that he baked for one of the Mexican boys, in honor of his first wedding anniversary. The cake was sure a fine looking piece of pastry and shows that Nick knows his business..

In 1950, Nick's son Jimmy and his wife Rachel, and their two toddler sons, resided on N. College in Scott City. Jimmy was employed washing cars at the local Conoco filling station, and Rachel was a homemaker. He had previously served 1942-1945 with U.S. Navy on the U.S.S. Albert T. Harris. In July of 1951, they had been living at 310 E. Bigger in Hutch., and were moving to South Hutch. By 1952 (thru 1957), they were residing at 1312 E. Ave. B in Hutchinson, which was several houses east of the Burson house, and the children were "very occasionally" attending the chapel. In 2013 when I heard about these boys from Dan Burson, the impression was that their surname was spelled "Pirate", perhaps given as such to assist with pronunciation challenges.

Jimmy died that year in 1952, leaving a young (27-year-old) widow Rachel to raise their two small children. By 1958, they had relocated to 510 E. 7th Ave. (+1958-1963+), and Rachel was employed as a notary public at First National Bank. For 24 years, she was also employed as a legal secretary for firm Rauh, Thorne & Robinson. In 1971, she was serving as treasurer for the Reno-McP Legal Secretaries Association. She had two siblings, John Boss of Geronimo, OK and Mary Boss Stonehacker of Riverside, CA. Rev. Harold Canaday officiated Rachel's memorial, she was a member of the [https://www.inspirehutch.church/ First CotN].

From +1910-1920+, Rachel's father John Boss was farming three miles south of Texico, Curry, N.M., and regarded as a pioneer of that community.
