Sorry - one more thing which may help.  Floyds Mothers maiden name was Roberts.

Hi Lisa,

I am looking at the family of Lewis Franklin Saxton born 25 Feb 1873 Illinois.
Married to Louise 25 May 1895 - They have 6 sons.  I have discounted 4 which leaves me with Delma W Saxton born 7 May 1902/3 Illinois and Raymond H 1906 Illinois.

So these are the 2 candidates for a marriage to Edith Schafer.
Not sure this is enough information to be able to find a marriage because I still have no idea where.
Edith was born in Illinois and did'nt appear in San Antonio. Los Angeles until 1920.
Delma I can find in 1920 Illinois.
Raymond H the last sighting is 1915 Somers.

Hi Sandra:

How did you find Delma/Delmer's exact birthdate?
Minnesota death index has a Delmr W. Saxton, born 7 May 1902, passed away 3 May 1983, Lyon County, Minnesota.  It shows the mother's maiden name, which I can send by pm if you think it would help (not posting, since this may not be the Delmer in which you are interested).
----------------
It looks like Delmer may have stayed in Minnesota.

Do not see Delmer in 1930.

Someone on An.....y has a tree with Raymond, son of Lewis F and Laura.  He apparently passed away 10 November 1913, Iowa.

Hi Lisa,

Delmer was an IGI record.

Think I'll have to give up on the Schafer/Saxton connection on this line of investigation.  Pretty sure its not related to the enquiry from Jackson MN.

Thank you for all your time & efforts.
