Hi Gwen,
I believe the wife and children stayed in the area, but Cletus did not. He divorced his
wife and moved to IA and then to Arkansas. Haven't tried to see if there are any
divorce records. Unfortunately there are no school records to check either that I know
of. Don't know where they went to church or if they even went to church but think
they were Baptist. Wish I knew which Milk Company Cletus worked for in Porter Co. I have
tried the State Vital Records Div on the birth of the children, but they don't have
them listed. If they were born at home, then there might not be any. The only mention of
these children are in the 1930 census all born between 1920 and 1930.
