Mama's Birth Record

Thank you Cully for telling me how to get this on here!  Well there you have it, mom was born in 1932, her parents were 30 and 23.  Grandpa was working with the Com. Edison Comp. Grandma was a housewife.

Already knew mom was born in a Swedish Hospital, so I am sure due to the parents still not being citizens of the USA at this time they still kept close contact with the Swedish community.

This document doesn't says if mom was born AM or PM...only that it was about 6:15 ....late after noon or earily morning.

Mystery of Grandma Winnie's middle name has now been....

Well finally!  Got the proof of grandma's mysterious middle name.  Got the only document so far which has it listed as .....GANNITA...actually I thought it was Guannita, with the G sounding more like a J...BUT, now we have the middle name.

Grandma was married, with Dad being around 10 yrs old and Aunt Jodie about 6 or 7 yrs old.  I knew they had lived in Michigan, but now here is another city to research for the Sargent family.  Grandma applied for the Social Security number just about 2 months after turning 28.  And at the time was unemployed.

Already knew grandma's father's middle name was Turner, but now there is the question of her mother's first name...has it here as Mayne ....most records have her as Maymie...or some spelling close to it.

Now , after talking with one of my cousins I was told that Aunt Jodie was a little upset after grandma died when she couldn't find any thing in writing which would show grandma's middle name...so this is for you aunt Jodie. 

Social Security # Application for Mayme Marsh

Well finally the first of three ancestors Social Security # Applications has come in . This is Mayme Marsh Justus, my grandma Winnie's mom.  This is actually the first document I have on the lady, don't know if I ever knew her or she held me as a child . 

She doesn't give her full given name  and used the Married Name Justus on the top line. She applied for the number about 19 yrs after her husband had died. By then the oldest child was married (grandma winnie )  and the other younger kids, Harold was 25, David was 23 and Margaret was 22

My question or questions would be , did Mayme actually have a jobduring her life time, being she signed and got her Number just at the end of the Depression. Did she spend the entire Depression with out the kids, and not married. Both her parents were still alive at this time-where were they.

TIME LINE 4 James Ray SARGENT 1933-2005

It is amazing to see just how much of our US history took place during Dad's life.

James Ray Sargent, my dad, was the first born of two, and at the end of PROHIBITION and just at the beginning of the GREAT DEPRESSION. Daddy came into the world just after  Franklin Delano Roosevelt became president.  The 3 R's were part of his early years~relief, recovery, and reform

INVENTIONS of his life time-the modern day Helicopter (age 3), NYLON (age 4), Aircraft Jet Engine (age 6), DIGITAL COMPUTER (age 6),  COLOR TV  part 1 and part 2 (age 7) Velcro was Patented in 1955 (age 22),

MAJOR HISTORICAL EVENTS of his life time-WORLD WAR 2 (age 6 to 12), bombing of both Hiroshima and Nagasaki (age 12),

PRESIDENTS of his life time-Roosevelt, Truman, Eisenhower, Kennedy, Johnson, Nixion, Ford, Carter, Reagan, Bush, Clinton, GWBush

Major HISTORICAL issues during his life time-Reign of King George VI (Windsor) (age 3 to 19)
Manhattan Project (age 8 to 12), Nuclear Reactor (age 9), Hypertext (age 12), reign of Queen Elizabeth II (age 19-till he died), Warsaw pact created May 14,1955 (age 22)

More on daddy's time line .

HONORABLE DISCHARGED

UPDATE* scanned with my new (VuPoint)solutions Magic Wand-portable scanner

Got Daddy's discharge paper today!  Some surprises, and new info. along with some questions answered.  Like his birth date shows to be 12 Nov. 1933.  Again , the old story of the birth certificate being altered to get him in under aged.

Don't really understand much of all what is here on the paper...will hopefully get it scanned in the next few days

He enlisted 28 May 1952 in Indianapolis, Indiana.  His discharge date was 01 Sept. 1954.  So he was in the Navy less than 2 1/2 years.   Just from all of this, I now know my sister was born after dad got out of the service. He got out about 7months after I was born.

He went into the military starting at the rank of "SR"...not sure what that is. There is "EN3" in the box 31 Service Training Courses Successfully Completed.  Box 3 has "ENFN" on 2/16/53.

There is a X in the box for No under Registered for Selective Service...being he enlisted, this is a true fact!

Not sure what the "specialty #" , D.O.T #, and the letters/# for reason and authority for discharge" is all about...anyone who can enlighten me , please do!!!  I do know the related civilian occupation  was that of "Engineer".

The #26 box "FOREIGN and/or SEA SERVICE" has 9 months and 22 days...would this mean he was out to sea that long ?  He was stationed mostly at USNAS, San Diego, California. 

This paper also show the answer to one of my questions...how far did dad go in school.  He completed the "USAFI GED Test" 1/22/53 High School Level.  So he got this just after he and mom were married, which was Dec. 1952.  Farther down in the boxes for non service education shows he completed only one year of high school.  But with the mix up of the birth year on dad, did he drop out of 10 grade or not.   *Maybe a connection to the school system out in Linton might shed some light on this as well.

Main civilian occupation is "Student" ....which is another true fact. Another true fact is he was Married!

In Box #27 "Decorations, Medals, Badges, Commendations, etc" is listed two item:
NATIONAL DEFENSE SERVICE RIBBON  and the GOOD CONDUCT MEDAL.
I know there is a way to get these for my own personal collection, BUT how and where.  Any suggestions?

Grandma Winnie

Grandma Winnie

would have be 96 yesterday 02/24/2011

Born in Linton, Indiana

02/24/1915

Been having an email conversation with a cousin (Paula)

 and have learned some new and interesting things

about grandma I didn't know.

We both agree that it would

have been out of grandma's character
to make things up. I remember her as being
VERY straight forward..

There was the question of her first name, part of the family

was told it was just winnie..

As this marriage license shows,

 her name being  Winifred.  The

last name JUSTUS also verified for me,

the correct spelling when I recieved this.

I had always thought it was JUSTICE.

Now the her first name of Winnie

is shown on my dad's

birth certificate. And that is another story in itself.
 Soooo...

my conclusion is

grandma just liked being known as

WINNIE!!

To date, I am waiting on the arrival of grandma's

SS application to see what the name

will be,

WINIFRED or WINNIE

(more on that later)

grandma was also listed as WINIFRED

on the 1930 Cencus when she along with

two brothers and younger sister were in

the Masonic Home for Orphans.

*note~she and her brothers went by the name

Justis (I instead of U)

and the younger sister

can be found down the list as

Margaret Justice.

Justice is the spelling I had always

thought it to be .

As for her middle name...that will be looked into.

Will be looking to get grandma's Birth Certificate.

This should show if she did or didn't have the

middle name Gaunita (I hope!)

should also be on SS application

I have been informed this is the middle name of grandma,

BUT I have to have the tanglable

proof...*this is important to me

Story has it , Grandma had a bad car acciedent

sometime early 50's..broke her back, wasn't healing

and didn't care for the cold.  She and grandpa were in

Mchigan or Indiana, so they moved to

Yuma, Ariz.

*I remember she and grandpa had

twin beds, and her's had

a wood board under

the mattress.

The accident
 was just around my birth, there is an old envelope

in my baby book which shows the

address from back east.

With grandma having

osteoperosis as well as athritis

I think this would be another

good topic to have input on.

All in all, grandma was a driving force

of the family, forthright , gutsy, straightforward...

but loving and caring to her own..glad to know I was the

first of many of those grandkids!

BRICK WALL on Parent's Marriage Record is starting to come D O W N !!!

email I recieved from a genealogy look up out in Calif. (thank you Steph)

Hi Debbie
I could not find Patricia Andree and James Sargent on the marriage index for Ventura Co but I did find them on the state index via Vitalsearch. It's a little confusing, though because Vitalsearch states the location of application is county 56 (Ventura) but the local file #27639 is for county 70 (Los Angeles) I always thought it was in Ventura.  This could be possible~will be checking this out in the next few days


I called our local recorders office and apparently this means they applied for the license in Ventura but got married in LA - OR the other way around. She thought your best bet was to request the marriage from LA. OK, question~thought you had to marry in the same county you applied for license?
FOLLOW-UP~ 2/23/11 Have found the possiable record in question, thou sending for it blindly. After several long distant calls to Calif. with no hard fact, but a hint of ...well went ahead to see just what will come of this, now waiting on recieving it in the mail.

(i do so hate the fact that these government record places won't help out more, even when you have all the needed data for the record location...i just want to know if they do have the record before  sending any money to them, which isn't refundable if no record is found!)

The only other information on Vitalsearch is that the groom was age 19 and the bride age 20. Also, it was hard to read the day they married, could be Dec 5 or Dec 6 in 1952. Funny story ~Dad was really 20 years old , his age was fibbed to get into Military back in late 40's / early 50's!  That is another post in itself!


If my memory serves me, dad's age on my Birth Certif. states he was 21 and mom was 22.  So now it is on to Los Angeles to see if I can locate this wayward record of my parent's union.
