Diane,

You asked about your Gramma Helen's husband. His name was Thomas C Phillips. He died in 1983, a year before your Gramma. I found out that Edward died in 1961 but that is all I could find out.  I am going to keep looking for his wife Frances.

In the 1930 census, there was William A, Elfreda M, and Frances E. living in the household
In the 1940 census, William was 52, Elfreda was 49, Phllyis, 20 who is actually Frances ( I suspect sometimes the enumerators heard or spelled names incorrectly) and married to Edward Johnson (should be Johnston), 24. They are all living with William and Elfreda, Frances parents.

No I have no information on who Helen married. I am trying to find out what happened to Edward and Frances. The two mothers that were present were Mrs. H. Johnson and Mrs.W. A. Anderson. There is a picture of Edward and Frances marriage certificate on Ancestry.com. Just search for Edward Johnston and the date November 28, 1935 under marriages and you will see it. I do not know if I am allowed to put it on this site.

Hite died in March of 1967. Are you saying that his son Edward died at the same time?

I have a photo of Edward and Frances marriage certificate. On November 26, 1935, at the age of 16, Frances married Edward Johnston. He was about 19 when married. Both mothers were witnesses. Mrs. H. (Hite) Johnston, and Mrs. W. A. Anderson and they signed the marriage certificate as witnesses to the marriage.

I am related to Frances. They were married when they were very young and lived with her parents.

Dblanch.... Your Grandma Helen would be a sister to the Edward who married my relative Frances. Their father's name was Hite Edward Johnston. His son was named Edward Hite Johnston. Helen and Edward would have only been 1 year apart in age. The children of Hite and Gladys were Eleanor, Helen, Edward, Mildred, Norman and Elmer.
I have the same birth year and birth place as you do for Hite. We are definately talking about the same people.
The Frances I am seeking would be your great aunt by marriage to your Great Uncle Edward. I cannot find out what happened to them. Maybe we can work on this together? I didn't get to examine the attachment before it was removed.

Thank you, I will try that. Frances was an only child but Edward had quite a few siblings. This has been a difficult search andI thank you for your suggestions.
