A possible resource: Percy and Frances Farnsworth's divorce records from 1900 - 1901 likely would indicate whether Colvin was adopted or not. Those records are probably housed at the Sacramento County Superior Court, since the Farnsworths were living in Sacramento at the time.


He is Percy and Frances  child I was wondering if he was adopted by Rudolf Neumann  Frances second husband as Colvin started using his name. 1st record I found was 1910 census and he is known as Neumann in other documents.
