Search for Mary Ozias.

584 results in 1920 and 5 Mary Ozias results. No enough information to determine which is our Mary. Try to eliminate some.

Mary F. from Ohio, born about 1901 is too young. Eliminated. Mary E. from Ohio, born about 1885 is also possibly too young. Could see if she is in the 1910 census with the same spouse. Mary Ozias in Pennsylvania has 8 year old and 1 ½ year old children, so that is not ours. Eliminated. Mary S. is living alone in Independence, Buchanan, Iowa and is 65 years old and single, possibly ours because of plausible age and the matching location of Tilman’s family http://www.ancestry.com/sharing/10214695?h=61808 b&utm_campaign=bandidowebparts&utm_source=post-sharemodal&utm_medium=copy-url 1920 U.S. census, Buchanan County, Iowa, population schedule, Washington Township, p. 210-A, enumeration district (ED) 16, sheet 95, dwelling 8, family 9, Mary S.

Mary Ozias in Twin, Preble, Ohio is widowed and living with son Horace E. Ozias and is 94 years old. This seems a bit old to have been married at 88 years old to 66 yr old Tilman in 1914, but it is possible. We will need need to follow the Ozias families in Twin, Preble, Ohio to see if/how they connect with Tilman and Jesse.

Feedback – Collection: 1) Regarding the death certificates – A search of the death certificate from the Arizona Department of Health Services OR a search of the FamilySearch collection is sufficient. Both are not needed. Feedback - Research: 1) Regarding the cemetery records – With the known name of the cemetery, call the cemetery to find out how to access the actual cemetery records. This is not required for this class, but would be pursued by a professional genealogist to meet the reasonably exhaustive research requirement. 2) Regarding the probate record – a genealogist would read and analyze all documents located in this probate records, not just the images used in this class.
