My great-grandfather, John AWE, died in 1935 and according to his obit, his sister Sophia
(nee:AWE) CALBAUM survived him and lived in Minden NV. According to bits and pieces of
family history, Sophia died in April 1937 in Genoa NV, preceded by her husband, Henry
CALBAUM, who died in August 1931 in Carson City NV. Previous to living in NV, the CALBAUM
family lived in Clark County WI where their 7 children were born.
I'm not familiar with Douglas County (I live in IL) so am curious as to where these 3
towns are located in proximity to each other. Did the CALBAUM family move around a lot
between 1931 and 1937? It is my guess that the CALBAUM family moved from WI to NV in the
mid-1920s. It would be wonderful if someone could find the family listed on the 1930 NV
state census.
I'd appreciate it if a Douglas County genealogy volunteer could help me to verify
where Sophia and Henry CALBAUM lived and died and where they are buried? I'd like
more exact death dates, if possible.
Thanks in advance! Carol AWE from Waukegan IL
