Title: Edwin George Powell
Post by: softly softly on Wednesday 05 August 20 16:22 BST (UK)
Hi, can anyone please give me full details of the marriage of Edwin to Agnes Jane Carpmill 9th May 1877 Cook, Illinois. Also a possible link on familysearch to the 1900 us census for them.I have 1880/1910/1920, I know it's there but cannot find as someone has it on their tree.
I cannot find Edwin in 1930 census. He may have been in the uk at that time, but did live between 1920-31 at 5310 Woodlawn Ave Chicago Illinois.
Not sure if he died in US--his dob was 6.1.1849 and parents were James & Sarah Ann.

Thanks

John

Not seeing death record or obit  for Edwin G Powell in  Cook County for 1935.

This looks like it could be him dying in England in 1935. Name & all dates seem to match known information.

That would be the Emily J that was listed on the 1928 passenger list but neither travelled.
