Notes

Cary spelled and signed his given name as Cary rather than Carey (as seen in most indexes). The 1920 census is a disaster for this family. Cary is recorded as Charles (and this threw me off track for years, until Herbert Michael Shook's wife, Karen, reached out to me). Moreover, Maude and Molly are reversed. Maude is the wife and Molly is the daughter.
