Francis Oakley Wodehouse of Monmouth, New Jersey
« on: Tuesday 28 December 21 11:18 GMT (UK) »
I should be very grateful if anyone knows of any way to find out the occupation of F.O. Wodehouse (1887-1978). Born in England, he emigrated in 1912 and settled in New Jersey. Before his emigration he was working for the Great Northern Railway. I know what his brothers did in other parts of the world, and would just like to be certain what Francis did for a living! Many thanks to anyone who can offer any help, and of course best wishes for the New Year.
