- From Jane Sanderman Mason, correspondent, note of October7th, 2008
This is a perfect example of why a census search can be sovaluable. There are two daughters who were born after 1900but are not in the 1920 census. I would never have knownabout them except for their brother's obituary. They wouldbe in the 1910 census with their family. Also, the databasementions a Maribelle, SDB#14320. I find no record of her.Could she be the Mildred A. born Oct1894? I do not findMildred after 1900 but then again, no 1910 census.
The 1974 family history that Moulton wrote is wonderful butalso throws in a little confusion He documents mother Annawas married before and the Mildred of the 1900 census is astep-daughter. He mentions a step-daughter Selma with theimplication that she is living but there is no Selma in the1900 census. There is a Selma in the Oregon Delayed BirthIndex. Could Selma have been living with other family in1900? Or.....you can go on like this forever.
Moulton states "there were seven children in our familycounting my two half-sisters". This could be Moulton,Leona, Melvina, Alvin and Albert plus Mildred and Selma.The SDB indicates an infant born/died between 1905 and 1911so number eight. In the 1900 census Anna indicates anotherchild who has died before 1900 but no way of knowing ifthat child was a Sprague. [1]
