Parents of Cecelia Theresa Childs

[EdCan]

Cecelia (1934-2015) was the wife of Lawrence William Mead when she died. She does not appear in any census. Cecelia previously married Robert William Graham 2 Aug 1952 Seabrook, New Hampshire. The marriage cert shows her parents as Robert L Childs and Cecelia V Cavanaugh.
Cecelia(mother) seems to have been born Cecelia Winnifred 24 Sep 1907 Massachusetts. Census records 1910-40 show her as Cecelia W/ Cecelia V and Cecelia. Her death record shows her as Cecelia V 5 Jan 2000 Boston. I can not find her in 1950. There does not seem to be any reliable record for Robert L Childs.

Added  Found Celia and Robert living together 1947 Boston

Hi,

I think this could be Cecelia W/V and Cecelia Teresa in 1950,

Cecelia Theresa is named as Teresa. The address is 2 Tilton, Randolph, Norfolk, Massachusetts which is the address on her marriage certificate.


I think this is Robert L CHILDS in 1950, transcribed as Robert Z CHILDS,

His police occupation matches the "Boston, Massachusetts, City Directory, 1947" occupation when he is with Celia.


Regards,
Daisy

Robert Leo Childs died 9 Sep 1983 New Hampshire. His obit mentions Cecelia Theresa. Find a grave shows his parents as Frederick and Josephine Schild.
