Hello All, I am trying to locate a long lost family member. Her birth name was probably Caren Gail Brewer. Her mother, Mildred Catherine Lundquist Brewer married my father's cousin, Dewey Lyle Chapman in 1943. Although they were married in Roswell, New Mexico, the certificate gives her residence as Everett, WA. Dewey was a military pilot who was later shot down and killed in North Korea in 1951. I was told that Dewey adopted Caren. At the time of his death Caren and her mother were living in Everett, WA with an H. Dahlgren. I was also told that Mildred later married a man named Leonard Allen who worked for the Boeing Aircraft Co. Based on a photo taken about 1947 I would guess that Caren was born around 1940. Any help or suggestions would be greatly appreciated. John Chapman Austin, Texas

Chapman, clerk, scott paper Co, residing at RD2, Box 451. 56, same 57, same but listed as receptionist. 59, same, listed as telephone operator. 60. receptionist again 62. same, but also listed was Caren G. as insert feeder, Scott Paper Co. 63. Both listed, Caren was now a packer. 64, just Mildred. 66, Mildred was listed as Mildred Allen, residing in Seattle. Same basically til 74 when Mildred was listed as residing at 1646 N. 203 Place Seattle. 75, 76, 77, she was listed as again Everett at Box 1673. 1977 was the last appearance. So she either was no longer working at Scott Paper, or had died. I checked the Seattle and North Seattle listings for 1646 N 203 Pl. In 75, it was listed as being occupied by a Robert B. Sparling; however, he was listed in previous years in other addresses and married to Molly. I thought maybe I could find Mildred living with Caren, but no such luck. There was a Leonard N, Boeing Mechanic listed in 1974 but he was married to an Ethel. Caren was working at Scott in 63, so she probably married after that. A death index might identify when Mildred died, which may lead to an obituary, which may lead to daughter. Ron Bestrom
