Brother of Martin?? He does not show up in any census. Parents married in 1903 and Harold Elson only child shown in any census.

If Martin doesn't fit, and there is no mention of Murray or Earl in either Elson or Katherine's obits - perhaps this Elson and Katherine are not yours??

Parents of my Harold Elson are Thomas Alexander Rose and Minnie Welch. Elson is such an unusual name.

Looks like Thomas and Minnie had a second son Murray Dalton Seeley Rose b. 27 Oct 1912. Sadly, he passed away 05 Sep 1913 at the age of 10 months.

Elson and Katherine are certainly a bit of a conundrum. From RK's transcription, the obit for Elson apparently says son of Mr and Mrs Thomas Rose; it apparently doesn't say the "late" Mr and Mrs which suggests the parents are still alive. From findagrave, it looks like Thomas died in 1969 and Minnie in 1974. I wonder if their obits might reveal anything?

Thanks PB. Seeley was the maiden name of Minnie's mother.
