I'm seeking information on Charles Spruce & Amelia Hawkins who had a child named Edna in December 1921. For some reason, the child Edna was adopted by a couple in Wood County, Ohio ca. 1929. So I'm wondering if one of the parents died or if there were other types of circumstance. Any information is welcome & I'm willing to share what info I have. Thank you.

I would think they weren't married, my books end at 1918 so would likely miss a marriage for them. There seem to be two in Washington Co. or maybe they are the same with two different ages Name: Amelia Hawkins Home in 1920: Marietta, Washington, Ohio Age: 18 Estimated birth year: abt 1902 Birthplace: Ohio Relation to Head of House: Daughter Father's name: Thomas Hawkins Father's Birth Place: Ohio Mother's name: Anna Hawkins Mother's Birth Place: Ohio Marital Status: Single Race: White Sex: Female Able to read: Yes Able to Write: Yes Neighbors: View others on page Household Members: Name Age Thomas Hawkins 39 Anna Hawkins 36 Amelia Hawkins 18 Callie Hawkins 10 William Hawkins 7 Clifford Hawkins 4 Marie Hawkins 0 [3/12] Source Citation: Year: 1920;Census Place: Marietta, Washington, Ohio; Roll: T625_1447; Page: 3A; Enumeration District: 192; Image: 22.
