1920 and 1930 Census look up please
« Reply #10 on: Saturday 27 June 09 15:31 BST (UK) »
Hello

From my earlier post I have found Edward Joseph on a Draft registration card of 1917 and this mentions nearest relative as Pauline Pearson. This, I presume is his wife of whom I have no further knowledge. Is it at all possible to find the family in the 1920 census?   Edward was born in England, 1880 and in 1917 his address was given as Anacortes, Skagit, Washington.

Simiarly I have found through an earlier post the death of Miriam Allott Collier in 1935, Miriam being the brother of the previous Edward.  Her husband was given as M C Collier who I, again have no further knowledge of. Is it possible to find this family in the 1930 census?  Miriam's death in 1935 was in Anacortes, Skagit, Washington and in 1920 she was with her parents in the same city, unmarried.  Miriam was born Ohio in July 1884.

Many thanks for all your help.

Bob

In the 1930 Census, there is an Edward J. Pearson, age 23, single, born Wisconsin, parents b. Wisconsin, was living as a lodger in a house with a Hatfield family & 6 other people in Mt. Vernon, Skagit Co., Washington.  He was a laborer doing odd jobs.  He was not a veteran.

The Wisconsin birth index has an Edward J. Pearson born 11 Sep. 1906 in Milwaukee Co.

1930 Census, Anacortes, Skagit Co., Washington, 486 Lake Forest Drive (on the same page as Edward & Pauline Pearson)

Collier, Maynard C., head, owns home, lives on a farm, male, white, age 42, age at 1st marriage - 35, born Minnesota, father born Canada-English, mother born Minnesota, farmer - chicken ranch, working on own account, veteran of WWI

wife Mirian A., female, white, age 44, age at 1st marriage - 37, born Ohio, parents born England, no occupation

Per his WWI Draft Registration card, Maynard Clifford Collier was born 25 Aug. 1887 in Minnesota (looks like it might be Minneapolis).  At the time, he was single, a farm laborer, and living in New Rockford, North Dakota.  The Social Security Death Index says Maynard died May 1980 and last resided in Anacortes.  The Washington Death Index says he died 28 May 1980 in Anacortes.
