Ohio. This is probably she in the 1880 South Salem, Ross, OH census: self, Joseph P. DICKEY, 45, OH SCVA VA, grocer wife, Ellen J., 36, OH VA NJ dau, Belle M., 7, OH dau, Nancy M., 5, OH In the 1900 census, Wilbur and Molette lived in Detroit, Wayne, MI. They are indexed online as Wilbur F. and Moutte THRAPP: head, Wilbur F., 46, b Sep 1853, md 1 yr, OH Canada OH, stock keeper wife, Moutte, 25, b Feb 1875, no children, OH OH OH In 1910 Wilbur may have been a lodger in Los Angeles City, CA. He said he was 56, bp Ohio, a widower and a shoe store clerk. There are no children living with him. However, Wilbur and Nancy had a son, James Presley Dickey THROPP, born 4 Jan 1901 in Detroit, Wayne, MI. James' birth record says "affdts. filed 1/7/33", or affadavits filed then? I have no information on Nancy. She may have died, divorced and/or remarried. Wilbur saying he was a widow is not always reliable; it is easier than admitting a divorce. In 1920, James P. D. is in Kern Co. CA: head, Emma F. THROPP, 61, single, OH VA OH sister, Eva J. THROPP, 52, single, OH VA OH nephew, James P. D., 19, single, MI OH OH If you use James P. D. Thropp's birthdate of 4 Jan 1901, he is in the SSDI, d Oct 1976, last residence Honolulu, HI. Now, check for that name, in Hawaii, at http://infospace.intelius.com/index.php/. You may have located Wilbur's grandson! Important Note: The author of this message may not be subscribed to this list.
