Carpenter Family - Dryden Henderson Carpenter - 1915 Iowa State Census

Carpenter Family - Dryden Henderson Carpenter - 1915 Iowa State Census

This is interesting.

This is Card no. 119.
Name is Dryden Carpenter. Age 65.
He is a white male who says he is widowed. He can read and write. Dryden states that he has lived in Iowa for 20 years. [He must have forgotten having been in Illinois and Alabama!]

Dryden is living in the town of Charles City, Ward 4.
His occupation is as Labour. He was not unemployed.
His total earnings for 1914 from occupation $650.00.
Extent of Education [was] Common11
Birth Place New York. 
Do you own your home or farm? Yes No
[Multiple empty inappropriate entry areas.]
Father's Birthplace New York  Mother's Birthplace New York

Signed E B Atherton by E B [?] Assess

OK- So what is interesting is that Aime Caroline Geishirt was married in 1917/8 to August Bernhart Erbe.

I think Aime and Dryden either divorced or just "left" each other-I vote for the later.......
