Life History

Notes

• The 1930 Parlee and her husband have one child, a son, G H, matching Grover in the 1920 census.  In 1930 Parlee has been married for about 20 years, based on the ages and the age at first marriage for each of them.  The census names her husband CD, but other sources tell us he is Charles E, son of Edward R McSwain.  So this would be the same wife as in the 1920 census, despite the difference in the names.

  Next door is GH McSwain whose age and proximity indicates he was their first child, though Holden does not report him.  According to his marriage license, the initials of Parlee's son should be G W.
