NOTE - Living in the "rear" housing unit at 2309 was the married daughter, Marjorie Gilpin, and her husband Gilbert Peck. They paid rent of $15 per month. Both had completed 12th grade. He was a lathe worker at a mfg. company and earned $1500 in 1939.
The birth locations of David and Betty were listed as Kentucky whereas the birth location of Ollie was Illinois; this was probably an enumerator error and should be the reverse. The birth location of Marjorie Peck was correctly shown as Illinois. All of the Gilpin children were born in Illinois.
If Ollie's birth date was 19 Sep 1889, then her age should have been 50 instead of 49.
