Arthur Trevor Rollinson marriage

[David Hankey]

Can anyone help with the marriage details of the above to a Eunice in Michigan sometime between 1930-1940?

Have you checked the https://familysearch.org/search site ?  Not sure you will find anything else online for that time frame.

I have, Sandra, and drawn a blank. On the 1940 US Census it lists his wife as Eunice, usually I have found that site pretty good with all sorts of details coming up but not on this occasion. David

Eunice appears to be Eunice Gordon born 18 Sep 1912 - died Feb 1976 - Last Residence 48234  Detroit, Wayne, Michigan.
The Michigan Death Index gave birth as 18 September 1913 and that date of death as 7 February 1976.

Hi Sandra,

Many thanks for this information, it is greatly appreciated, David

There are other Eunice Gordons of around the same age on the 1940 census, including some in Michigan, so I wouldn't assume that's her without some additional evidence.

Since the 1940 census says they both lived in the same place in 1935, I would think they were probably married by then.

Yes, Shelleyesq, I've had another look at this and the Census detail states Eunice aged 26 (birth year 1914!!) born in Michigan with husband Arthur aged 28 and son Gerald aged 2. So I think I am looking for another Eunice. Thank you, David

There is a family tree entry with Eunice Gordon listed, perhaps if you contact the owner of that tree, they may throw some light on the matter for you. There is a form for a obituary/search request on the Detroit Library Site - $15 per name submitted with the exact date of death.  Don't know how that works when the SSDI says one date and the Michigan death Index another  Prepayment would need to be in US funds.
If the US Census date was 1 st April 1940 and Eunice was born September 1913, then she would have been 26 years old.
