I am looking for information on Edgar Christian Rasmussen Name: RASMUSSEN, EDGAR Social Security Number: 375-07-8388 Date of Death: 5 Jan 1986 Date of Birth: 8 Apr 1896 Residence (2/88 and prior): Michigan Last Residence (Zip): 48216 Lump Sum Payment Location (Zip): Reliability of Data: Detroit, Wayne, Michigan. THEN I got help from a nice person on rootweb, Wayne and she sendt me this information for ILLINOIS. Someone help me? I sorry, I am not very good in english. EDGAR was born in Denmark and came to US, under 1. VW. Someone in Illinois maybe remeber him and his family or have a picture of him/them/ and other information? Here is the information about ILLINOIS (and Wayne): From Michigan Deaths 1971-1996, Edgar C. Rasmussen died 5 January 1986. He appears on the 1930 census (the last one released by the federal government) living on Lois Street in Dearborn, Wayne Co., Michigan. He is 38 years old and married. His age at first marriage was 34. He was born in Denmark as were his parents. He works in a boiler factory as an electric mach?-not sure about that-hard to read. His wife's name is May F. and she is 38 years old. Her age at first marriage was 16 and it appears that she has children from her first marriage living with her. They are Clarence Roger age 21 and a widower, born in Illinois and Frances E. Roger, age 15, born in Wisconsin.. It appears that Clarence has a child, Shirley M., female, age 2 born in Illinois. Edgar and May have a son, Edgar D. age 1, born in Illinois. The index to the census lists his age as 11 but Edgar C and May have only been married 5 years using Edgar C. marriage info and age. Someone in Denmark can help me translate, so just write as you speak, please. Hope you can find this family for me. Maybe Edgar D still living? or he got children. Regards from Maya Rasmussen, Denmark
