Hi Jody, It had been so long I had about given up on an
answer to my Cage message..My grandfather was born in Iowa,
according to the 1920 census of Oregon. They were living in
The Dalles, Oregon..But my grandmother and grandfather were
separated and altho in the same city not living together..
His name was William Edward Cage and her name was Lizzie
May Lord (Cage). My mother was born in Kooskia, Idaho,
Feb., 5, 1903. I have really had a time with them..My grand-
father is listed as 58 years old and my grandmother 50. It is very possible that he was
married before, and I remember
my mother saying she had 1/2 brothers, but I don't remember
1/2 sisters. My mother was 28 when I was born and my dad 50,
so I was young when they died, in 1962 and 1968. The census
says my grandmother was a widow, but I can remember seeing
my grandfather and I was born in Seattle, Wash. in 1931.
So he could not have died before 1935 or 1936. I have him
born about 1862. Where did your Cages come from? the census
tells me my g-grandfather came from Germany. Gee, I would
love to see that book.
