Census
1930 census of Mingo Co., West Virginia, Lee district, town of Puritan, enumerated 17 April, lists on pp. 3A-3B as family #40:

The ages on this record are screwed up. Jennie should be 35, not 20, and Violet should be 7. The age at first marriage is apparently the age when Tony and Jennie first married each other, not their age at their first marriage.
