CENSUS: FAM OF BETTS---Lewis & Elizabeth
1920 NE-Douglas-Omaha(102-11): Lewis 42, xx-40, Elizabeth 9, Margret 4.5yrs
1930 CA-LsAng-Pasadena(1280-10): LewisL 38, ElizabethM 37, ElizabethN 17-ne, Margaret 12-ne, Louise 4-ca; RH--had a radio

ODDSTUFF---the census shows Lewis & spouse (in their 40's in 1920) & same family (in their 30's in 1930)...both census are read correctly. NOW...spouse in 1920 was unnamed & if indeed Minnie was born in 1904 she is not the Elizabeth M shown in the 1930 census who should be born abt 1893; the first 2 children were born in Nebraska abt 1912 & 1917; again if Minnie was born in 1904 she could not be their mother.

Nothing more is known about the 3 girls found in the 1930 census; so they have not been added.
