Victor Samuel Lee b1896 New York
« on: Wednesday 03 May 17 05:12 BST (UK) »
Hi Guys
Have hit a brick wall I have a Victor Samuel Lee b1896 to a John Richard & Sarah Lee I can trace him up to the 1920 USA census in New York I believe he married to a Mary ?? as I can see him in 1930
I am trying to find his marriage to Mary to determine marriage date and maiden name of Mary their oldest daughter Lois was born in 1924 in New York
I have believe she was born in Connecticut
Manu
 ;)

Away sorting out DNA matches... I may be gone for some time many years!

There's a 1934 marriage in Guilford Connecticut, Victor Lee and Mary Vandewarker.

A possiblity in view of the burial location?

Thanks Shaunj
Never looked that far as they had 3 kids the first born 1924 but its worth keeping in mind
 just rechecked the 1925 census the entry says Victor head, Marie? (not) Mary age 21, and Virginia aged 62 days I am now assuming that Lois born 1925 died will have to recheck all sources again
cheers

I'm not sure about that 1925 census. He's single in the 1930 census.

I wonder if this is Mary in the 1920 census while married to a previous husband - https://familysearch.org/ark:/61903/1:1:MCNC-HR5  The age fits Mary in the 1940 census.

Earle Vandewarker & Mary Hunt married in 1919 in Guilford per the marriage record database linked to above.

Per the 1920 census, Mary Vandewerker has a middle initial R which fits with Mary Lee.

Good catch.  There is a Mary R. Hunt of the right age in Guilford in 1910 - https://familysearch.org/ark:/61903/1:1:MK28-X8W
