    • John Butler (21) appeared in the household of Maude Smith (47). [Both are listed as head, it seems more likely that Maude is head. She was widowed and owned the home. Maude was the informant.] He was married. He had not attended school during the year and had completed 2 years of high school. He was born in Georgia. [According to the census, he lived in the same house in 1935, but I think that is unlikely, since he and Belvy were married in 1938]. John was not employed the week of Mar 24-30 and was seeking work. He worked 30 hours a week in 1939, earning $200.

      The household included Belvy (18).

      [Robert Morrison and his parents lived two households up.]
