Hello, I am not related to this family, but thought I would do a lookup in the census for you and here it is. I found a Hugh R. Anderson with Sarah and sons Roy and Paul in Alleghany Co., VA census for 1920. I found Hugh's middle name listed as 'R.'. It said he was born in VA, so did a lookup in 1900 and found this for a Hugh R.

Head M 30 Married VA VA VA Carpenter House , Sarah Wife F 24 Married VA VA VA , Roy Son M 6 Single VA VA VA , Paul Son M 4/12 Single VA VA VA In looking at the 1920 Census and 1930 census, it appears Hugh is gone and no longer living,has left the family or he is seeking employment elswhere or working elsewhere, as only Sarah is listed with the chidlren. 1930 Federal Census: Selma, Clifton Twp., Alleghany Co., VA Anderson, Sarah A.
