The 02 Jan 1920 US Census of Decatur, Morgan Co., AL enumerated the household of 39 [sic] Y/O Arthur Edgar Greenhill, an insurance company agent (Metropolitan Life Insurance Company), and his 36 [sic] Y/O wife, Ethel Northern (Adams) Greenhill, born in Kentucky. Living in the household were their children: 7 Y/O Jean Greenhill and 3 Y/O Annie Greenhill, both born in AL. NOTE: Nancy Lois Greenhill was born on 29 Mar 1920 shortly after this census was taken.

The 1930 US Census of Decatur, Morgan Co., AL enumerated the household of 52 Y/O Arthur Edgar Greenhill, an insurance company agent (Metropolitan Life Insurance Company), and his 49 Y/O wife, Ethel Northern (Adams) Greenhill, born in Kentucky. Living in the household were their children: 17 Y/O Jean Greenhill; 13 Y/O Annie Greenhill, and 11 [sic] Y/O Nancy Lois Greenhill.

The 1940 US Census of Decatur, Morgan Co., AL enumerated the household of 63 Y/O Arthur Edgar Greenhill, an insurance company agent (Metropolitan Life Insurance Company), and his 59 Y/O wife, Ethel Northern (Adams) Greenhill, born in Kentucky. Also living in the household was their 20 Y/O daughter, Nancy Lois Greenhill, a store clerk.

The 1942 Decatur, Alabama City Directory recorded Arthur Edgar Greenhill and his wife, Ethel, living at 202 8th Ave, West. Also recorded as living in their household was their daughter, Nancy Lois Greenhill, who was employed as a typist for the WPA (Works Project Administration).

22 Y/O Nancy Lois Greenhill of Decatur, Alabama married 21 Y/O Stanley Allen Cable of Rapid City, South Dakota on 29 Jan 1943 at Morgan Co., AL. This was the first marriage for both and and on the marriage document Stanley's occupation was recorded as "army". According to an entry in the "Adams" family Bible in possession of Ethel Northern (Adams) Greenhill, mother of Nancy Lois Greenhill, the wedding occurred at the First Presbyterian Church in Decatur, AL. The Rev. W. W. Glass performed the ceremony.

The 1952 Decatur, Alabama City Directory recorded Ethel Northern Greenhill, widow of Arthur Edgar Greenhill, living at 336 8th Ave, NW. Also living the household was her daughter, Lois Greenhill, employed as a typist for the Federal Social Security Administration.

The 1955 Decatur, Alabama City Directory recorded Ethel Northern Greenhill, widow of Arthur Edgar Greenhill, living at 324 8th Ave, NW. Also living the household was her daughter, Lois Greenhill, employed as a receptionist for the US Department of Health, Education and Welfare Social Security Administration. NOTE: Nancy Lois Greenhill's marriage to Stanley Allen Cable probably ended in divorce at some point as Stanley remarried on 17 Dec 1965 at Aguadilla, Puerto Rico to Ivonne Marie Yunker Johns and died at the age of 86 on 01 Aug 2009 at Baker, Okaloosa Co., Florida. I do not know why Lois reverted back to her maiden name of "Greenhill" after the divorce.

Nancy Lois Greenhill married secondly John Paul Sheats in November 1957 at Lawrence Co., AL. This was also John Paul Sheats' second marriage. He had married 20 Y/O Viola Underwood on 29 Oct 1942 at Lawrence Co., Tennessee. They divorced in October 1956 in Morgan Co., Alabama.

The 1958 and 1959 Decatur, Alabama City Directories recorded Ethel Northern Greenhill, widow of Arthur Edgar Greenhill, living at 324 8th Ave, NW. Also living in the household were her daughter, Lois (Greenhill) Sheats, and Lois' 2nd husband, John Paul Sheats, who was employed as a mathematician at Redstone Arsenal (Redstone Arsenal is about 23 miles from Decatur, AL).
