Eynon of Fairfax, longtime Musicians Union business representative, died yesterday in a local hospital after a short illness. He was 71. Eynon was born in Salt Lake City, where he began a musical career, playing the saxophone with Red Nichols and His Five Pennies. For many years he played in San Francisco at the Curran Theater and at such events as the Ice Follies. In addition, he had been business representative in Marin County for the Musicians Union Local No. 6 of San Francisco for 17 years before retiring from that job last year. Eynon continued a locksmith-musical instrument repair business in Fairfax until his death. He had lived in Marin 25 years. The family home is at 17 Madrone Court. Eynon is survived by his wife, Cecelia; a daughter, Mrs. Karil Andrews of Mill Valley; two sisters, Mrs. Muriel Kockisch of Terra Linda and Mrs. Louise Walker of Long Beach, and a brother, Eyrick Eynon of Sonoma. Memorial service will be at 4:30 p.m. Friday at the Chapel of the Hills in San Anselmo.

From the details of this census, where Muriel is living with her brother Eurich, I found their Eynon family in 1820 before either Eurich or Muriel had been married. Clues led to censuses turning up in reverse order, but filling in a bit more detail as we went back in time. There are several discrepancies, but important critical facts unusual about this family match exactly, like the mother (Alice) being born in England, the father in Wisconsin and all the children in Utah. The age and name for F Louise does not match Muriel B, which I was tempted to identify as the same child, knowing of only two children originally. But the 1910 census clarifies there were two daughters, whose ages in 1910 match later info on each in separate censuses. 1920 Federal Census, Salt Lake County, Utah, 14 January, Salt Lake City, District 171, page 14A, 436 South 7th East St, Hse #284, Fam #324 Eynon, Alice Head Owns F W 50 Widow Entered US 1890 Naturalized 1894 England Eng Eng No Occup [abt 1870] Eynon, Cyril O Son M W 17 Utah Wisconsin England [abt 1912] Eynon, Eyrick V Son M W 17 Utah Wisconsin England [abt 1912] Eynon, F Louise Dau F W 13 Utah Wisconsin England [abt 1916] The 1910 census confirms and fills in many details, when we find ages consistent with the 1920 ages for Eyrick and Cyril.

From what we find in earlier censuses (which were found later) his age in 1930 hould have been 27. But his wife Eva is reported as being 21 and marrying at 18. Going by this, married three years ago, Eyrick's age would be 26 or 27. This information led to a 1920 census that seems to represent this family. There are a few discrepancies and questions that come up. Muriel's brother Eurich matches pretty well, with the name spelled Eyrick, and the same unusual middle initial of V. The clincher seems to be that Alice Eynon was born in England and the children's father in Wisconsin, as in the 1930 census. All the children were born in Utah, as in 1920. Though these critical details match, there are some discrepancies in ages. Eyrick V is 17 in 1920 and Eurich V only 21, instead of 27 in 1930. The unusual facts about the parents, however, would seem to make this a sure match. But we learn here also that Eurich had a twin brother, Cyril O. Knowing of two children from the 1930 census, I expected Louise to match Muriel. But ages and different initials made this problematic. It became clear when I discovered the 1910 census indicating two daughters and the twin sons. More detail was filled in with each successive step back in time as the records turned up in searches. Muriel's age was also reported as 10 years too young in the 1930 census, further throwing off the identification. She was 11 years old in 1910. 1920 Federal Census, Salt Lake County, Utah, 14 January, Salt Lake City, District 171, page 14A, 436 South 7th East St, Hse #284, Fam #324 Eynon, Alice Head Owns F W 50 Widow Entered US 1890 Naturalized 1894 England Eng Eng No Occup [abt 1870] Eynon, Cyril O Son M W 17 Utah Wisconsin England [abt 1912] Eynon, Eyrick V Son M W 17 Utah Wisconsin England [abt 1912] Eynon, F Louise Dau F W 13 Utah Wisconsin England [abt 1916] Muriel's age in 1910 does not match her age in the 1930 census, when she and her brother Eyrick are both reported as 21. He should be 27 and she should be 31. She was already 11 years old in 1910. I think that should be the definitive reference point. So she is reported as 10 years younger than she should be in 1930! Louise's age matches 1920 census age. The agreement on the twins' age in 1910 and 1920 makes up for the discrepancy in Eyrick's age in the 1930 census. 1910 Federal Census, Salt Lake County, Utah, 18 April, Salt Lake City Ward 1, District 106, page 3B, 436 South 7th East, Hse #66, Fam #67 Eynon, Emyr Head M W 50 Married 18 years Wisconsin Wales Wales Carpet Cleaning Owns Eynon, Alice Wife F W 42 Married 18 years 4 children/4 living England Eng Eng Eynon, Murill Dau 11 F W Single Utah Wisconsin England Eynon, Cyril O Son M W 7 Utah Wisconsin England Eynon, Eyrick V Son M W 7 Utah Wisconsin England Eynon, Louise F W 3 Utah Wisconsin England In 1914, Muriel is listed as the sole child with her mother in the Salt Lake City directory.

Thomas is enumerated in the 1841 census of Pembrokeshire County, Wales. It is not clear is Esther Eynon is his wife or perhaps a sister Esther. An older Elizabeth Morgan is only about 15 years older than Thomas and Elizabeth, with a 6-year-old girl of the same last name, and a 15-year-old Elizabeth Evans.

The name Nannie Lawton on one of her photos in her sister's collection made us think that Nannie Terry married someone named Lawton. In early 2013, when I found this photo among those my father had left me, I had no information about Nannie's husband, and could not find anything in searches. Her sister, Julia Virginia Terry Jenkins, had written her name on the back of the photo as Nannie Lawton. Nannie's was listed as a survivor in her mother's 1932 obituary, under the name Nannie Fain, living in Lawton. This seemed to indicate that Lawton on the photo was a location, not Nannie's married name. A marriage record was found in Bell County Texas of Nannie Terry to Jim Fain. This was only an index record, which did not have a photo of the actual certificate or record.

The name Fannell comes from the 1910 census entry for Abbie Grubbs, who is in her parents home enumerated under the name of Abbie Fannell, with her daughter. Abbie is reported as Married, but no husband is reported in the household. From her daughter record, we can tell Abbie's husband was born in Mississippi. We can assume they were of a similar age, and estimate his birth about 1879.

Leo was female and daughter in 1910, but male and son in 1920. Note that from these censuses the origin of Robert's wife Lucy is uncertain. In 1910 she is reported as born in Arkansas, as well as both parents. But note that the parents of the children there is reported as born in Arkansas This makes it look like Lucy is not the mother of any of these children. But other factors discount that. Then in 1920, we see she is reported as born Texas, with her father born in Missouri and mother born in Texas. The children's report is consistent with this, reporting their mother born in Texas. Details on the birth of Robert seem consistent. We might think again that this Lucy E is a different person, but the same name and similar age seem to make nonsense of that possibility. Also because the age is one year less in 1920, this makes it appear that her birthday is between January (1920 census date) and May (1910 census date). Leo Earl was the youngest child of his parents.

There was sickness along the Red River when they went to cross so they had to go a days journey out of the way to find a low area and crossed away from the main trail. They spent the winter near Sherman, Texas. Robert is said to be the only boy left at home with lots of sisters and was spoiled. He and Lucy separated for awhile due to family interference and when they got back together they migrated to Texas. Texas was a wild and fairly unsettled area when they arrived and the children were not allowed to play outside without supervision because of the wild animals which posed a danger.
