[or-roots] Frank Grimm's Daughter - Blanche (Grimm) Morgan

[DONALD SMITH]

Bill,
 
Thank you for this, I think that we are on the right track with this bio.
The timeline is dead on. Location of Death works out very coincidentally.
 
Very interesting.

And once you know a possible name, you can Google it -- there are several hits that seem to coincide -- Lawrence Deloss [Morgan], born 23 May 1908. He was reared by his single mother (Amberzine) who divorced his father sometime after 1910. While living in Burley, Idaho, at the age of 17, he married Wilda Marston, then 15 years old. Wilda Marston was born 9 Feb. 1909 in Kaysville, Davis, Utah. On 20 May 1925 they had a son, John Dee, in Burley, Cassia, Idaho. But because the parents were so young and Lawrence had gotten in trouble with the law, they could not adequately take care of their child. At the age of four their son, who was called Dee, was taken in and reared by Wilda's sister, Martha Marston Warnick, and her husband Elmer R. Warnick (Information provided by John D. Warnick.) <>As an 18-year-old in Burley, Idaho, Lawrence pleaded guilty to forgery and in 1928 was sent to the Idaho State Penitentiary in Boise. After serving 33 months he was released on parole in 1931. He then moved with his wife Wilda to Klamath Falls, Oregon. The Social Security Death Index has his death in Oct 1971, Klamath Falls, OR. Wilda died in Burns, Oregon, on 4 March 1939. more at http://macsheep.tripod.com/Morgan/id15.html I did not note any mention of Blanche as his wife, so maybe it is not this fellow, but then again, he is not  a John Smith, either.  And he certainly, by this time line, had had time to remarry.Bill Strickland
