Family Links Spouses/Children: 1. George Dewey Linn Shirley Jean Linn+ Gladys Lucile Cavin 1 Born: 11 July 1903, Denver, Denver, Colorado, United States Marriage (1): George Dewey Linn on 13 August 1920 in West Branch, Cedar, Iowa, United States 1 Died: 23 May 1983, El Cajon, San Diego, California, United States at age 79 Buried: May 1983, Greenwood Memorial Park, San Diego, San Diego, California, United States   General Notes: Her birth location is a bit of a mystery. On the 1910 census while living with her parents in Cedar County, Iowa, her birth location was given as Colorado. On the next 1920 census, still living with her parents in Cedar County, Iowa, her birth location was given as Iowa. On the 1930 census living with her husband, George Linn in Linn County, Iowa, she gave her birth location as Colorado. Her father was from the Cedar County area and was married there and appears to have lived his entire life there. There are birth records for at least one brother to Gladys that shows he was born in Cedar County, Iowa but no birth records for Gladys have yet been found. As local farmers from the Cedar County area, I can find no reason for them to have moved to or to have visited Colorado but perhaps they made one trip there with the mother giving birth to Gladys there. Otherwise, it seems entirely logical to think that Gladys was born in Iowa yet why would she state Colorado on the 1930 census when she was married? -------------------------------------------------------   Noted events in her life were: 1. 1930 US Census, 13 April 1930, Cedar Rapids, Linn, Iowa, United States. 1 1930 US Census Sheet 2A, District 44, Household 39, Roll 665 Cedar Rapids, Linn, Iowa, United States 2409 C Avenue; home owned, $6500 Gladys L.
