Maude M Pray and Marion I Stuart

I made a breakthrough!

My only lead on Marion Stuart was the marriage index I found. I have not gotten the marriage certificate yet, but when I looked in the Denver city directory, I didn't find any Marlon, but a Marion, who was a plasterer. I looked in earlier and later directory years and found he was only there from 1910-1912. I tried to find other family, but I found none living with him.

I did a search for the name in the Denver directory, and found a California Death Index for a Marion I Stuart born 29 Dec 1883 in Iowa and died 19 Mar 1973 in Los Angeles. What are the chances all the Pray sisters ended up in Los Angeles together????

Well, I continued to search using the specifics found from the California Death Index. and I found a census record with his family:

Stuart family starts on Line 27

And then I searched a little more and found his World War I Draft Registration Card. This item was GOLDEN because guess who was listed as the closest relative? That's right. Maudie.

 Now I know more about the husband, and I'm looking for them in censuses right now. I'll update later.
