Sackett, Sr.; 2) The wife of Guy W., Sr is given as Edith Mildred Wilson and one of the husbands of Della May Hendircks is given as Joseph Wilson. However, the information for Guy Sackett in Indiana doesn't seem to leave room for him to have also been in Florida. Thurmon
Year: 1920;Census Place: Charleston Ward 12, Charleston, South Carolina; Roll T625_1688; Page: 10B; Enumeration District: 70; Image: 418. Guy W Sackett, 34, Florida, Pennsylvania, Florida, Civil Engineer, Edith W Sackett, 35, Florida, Norway, Florida Evelyn C Sackett, 11, Florida, Florida, Florida Guy W Sackett, 5-3/12, Florida, Florida, Florida
The name Guy W. Sackett shows up in the census in Florida in the same time period and the same age as the Indiana Guy. There is also a passport application (1925) for Guy Woodford Sackett, b. Ft. George, Florida, 31 Oct 1885. His father is John Warren Sackett, dec., b. in Rantoul, Illinois. He wants a passport so he can go to Colombia, Chile, Bolivia, Uruguay, Brazil, and Venezuela for "construction work and sea service." He must be the Florida resident in census records, and probably wasn't in jail in Indiana in 1910 and 1920.
