	I think you will need to purchase a copy of the marriage cert for further info on Amelia (Minnie J) Jessica McDowall. I have done a lot of searching but not had any luck. Prickles.

Member Since: July 2004 Posts: 5,047 Send Message	I found the 1930 Census (Kingswood Ohio) interesting.. Orin's father Orin snr. was 65... Pearl was 21....she married at 16...but they obviously divorced before the 1940 as she is stated as being Divorced.. Original Transcription looks okay relating to Orin snr.age

Member Since: December 2004 Posts: 24 Send Message	Thanks Prickly and Eringobragh. i am in contact with Andrew Carle, and he lives in USA, all the information is helping him get his tree going further. I have traced back some of his Spinks line to the town of colkirk , norfolk , England to find he has many relatives from that area. Everyone who has supplied information has made the search easier. Thank you. Now need to find the line from charles spinks b 1834 d 10/7/1900 occupation baker and his wife jane d 23/5/14 from colkirk.

Member Since: July 2004 Posts: 5,047 Send Message	Found this if it is the Orin L. that Millicent married then he either remarried or was married before Millicent but he was only 21at that time http://www.theledger.com/article/20051107/OBITS/511070331 1940 Census of Geneva Village shows him aged 13 b Florida living with Pearl Carle 31 mother Esther 11 sister John 8 brother All details in his Obituary point to him being the husband of Millicent. EDIT...The Lakeland referred to is Lakeland FLORIDA and not Ohio.
