[Bride] Betty R. Watson
[Age] 23
[Birthyear] Abt. 1923
[Birthplace] Boyne City, Charlevoix County, Michigan
[Father] Arden Watson

[State File #] 39 14095
The 1930 US Federal Census record for Battle Creek, Calhoun County, Michigan confirms the following:
[1] Head of House is listed as Arden E. Watson.
[2] His wife is listed as "Ida M. Watson".
[3] Block-14 (marital condition) for both Arden and Ida indicate that they were "Married".
[4] Their children are listed as Betty R. (age abt. 7) and Margaret L. (age abt. 4).
[5] Also, Oscar A. Russ (age abt. 96) is listed in the household. Oscar A. Russ's relationship status to Head of House is listed as "Father-in-Law"; this confirms that Ida's maiden name was Russ as supported in her daughter's marriage record (above).
[6] The record confirms birthplaces and birthyears for the listed household members. In particular to Ida, the record confirms the following:
[6a] Birthplace: Michigan
[6b] Birthyear: The 1930 census is dated 7-April-1930, Block-13 (age at last birthday) indicates that Ida was 46-years old. Given these facts and the information noted within this memorial confirms that the census was prior to her "47th" birthday, supports her "1883" birthyear.
Given the physical burial location of Arden and Ida, the details confirming the parents of Betty Rose (Watson) Whittington as Arden Watson and "Ida Russ" in her (betty's) Marriage Document, and the details listed in the 1930 census record which also confirms "Ida M. Watson's" maiden name as "Russ" and her father (Oscar A. Russ), I believe enough information is furnished to support the suggested up-dates.
