Gottfried Fund told his children the story of the origin of the Fund family surname as follows: "Long ago, there was an avalanche in Switzerland and a little boy who couldn't talk yet and didn't know his name, was found. The authorities looked for and tried to locate his parents, but nobody claimed him, so they gave him the name Fund, which means found in German. The authorities found some people who would take him in and raised him as their own. That was verified by a relative in Zurich. This story apparently goes back several generations beyond which no more ancestors have been located." In addition to the four children with family links below, the following are additional deceased children that have not been located at Find A Grave as of August 4, 2015: 1918-1xxx Bertha (Fund) Beers (Born About 1918) Bertha (Fund) Beers was living in Chetwynd, British Columbia as of her mother Mary Fund's July 20, 1970 Obituary and pre-deceased Orville.

The DOB of all siblings except Gottfried, Gottlieb and Hans has been assumed to maintain what is thought to be the order of birth. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
