I realized I was missing a dod for my 3x great aunt Carrie Roth's husband Paul A. Mallonn. She died in 1919 and I wasnt able to locate him in 1930's census. I found out why. 1st they spelled his last name as Malone and two he remarried.
How did I find this out?
First I decided to dig for his death. It isnt in the records online, which I found weird considering I thought he died between 1920 and 1930 and all of those for Ohio are online. I decided to go to the Stark Co library's website and there I went through the obituary Indices. There I found three obits listings in the 1954 index:
Mallonn Paul (Minna) Mrs. 1954 May 6 45
Mallonn Paul A. Mrs. 1954 May 7 27
Mallonn Paul 1954 Oct. 5 13
I thought this was odd and wondered, "who is Minna?" I emailed my grandmother asking if Paul remarried and she answered...
Yes, Paul Mallonn married Minna (Schweitzer, I am not sure of the spelling of her maiden name. They had a daughter Esther Louise whose married name is Ash. She is still living as far as I know and must be in her eighties. She married a man who I only know as "Red" Ash who was a coach at a local high school. They lived in North Industry,Ohio which is a small town south of Canton. At this time you cannot tell when you are out of Canton and in N.lndustry as it is all built up. I believe that Esther Louise had four boys and I know one of them is a dental surgeon in Canton. As for the other ones I don't know their names. I hope this answers your questions. Al Mallonn was Paul's son by his first wife making him my dad's cousin. If you have any other questions where I can help, just let me know. Grandma
Now my mom's cousin's soon to be ex-wife is going to go to the library for me and look up the obits. Im sending her chocolate as payment. Also on a whim I messaged Paul's great grandson on FB to see if he was willing to share info and if he is interested in what I have. This g-grandson is the g-grandson of Carrie not Minna. I) dont expect to hear back but figured it doesnt hurt to see.
