Miscellaneous information
- Someone by this name is mentioned as leader of the "Tocaben Mandolin Quartette" in 1894. There are quite a few mandolin arrangements credited to Louis Tocaben, so guessing this is the same person. The Library of Congress mentions copyrights/renewals in his name by him (not another family member - though could this be a Louis Tocaben Jr.? - guessing not...) as late as 1943 (after that it's by Seredy-Tocaben.) Federal census records for the 1920s and 1930s suggest then this may? be the Louis Tocaben born ca.1865 (perhaps traveling at age 5 to the USA, still alive in the 1930s... it might work though more definite information seems needed.)
