Clarence Curtis Emanuel1

b. 26 June 1915
Family
Father*Charles Emanuel1 b. 19 Jul 1885, d. 3 Dec 1918
Mother*Sarah Russell1 b. Nov 1896, d. Jun 1923
Birth*26 June 1915Clarence Curtis Emanuel was born on 26 June 1915 in St. Joseph, Buchanan County, Missouri.1 
(Son) RelocationAfter the death of his father in December 1918, his mother moved with Clarence and his sister, Della, to Omaha, Douglas County, Nebraska, to be close to their mother's sister, their aunt, Bertha (Russell) Byers, and her family. Arrangements were made with their uncle Guy A. Byers's brother, James O. Byers, who was a widower with a young daughter, Margarite, and lived nearby, for Clarence, his sister and mother to live in James O. Byers's house. Unfortunately, we have not been able to identify James, or any members of his household, on the 1920 census.2,3,4,5 
(Son) Residence According to today's (2022) map, James O. Byers's house at 3701 Spaulding Street, Omaha and Guy A. Byers's house at 3802 38th Street, Omaha, are one block away from each other, a distance of 407 feet, with an estimated walking time of one minute.5,4,2,3 
Census US 1930*22 April 1930Della and Clarence Curtis Emanuel. were enumerated on the 1930 census taken on 22 April 1930 in the Nebraska State School for the Blind, Nebraska City, Otoe County, Nebraska. Della was recorded as 16 years old, and Clarence as age 14. Both were able to read and write and both had attended school within the census year. Our research has not indicated that either Della or Clarence was visually impaired, and we wonder if they were residents of the school because they were orphans. Their father died in 1918 and their mother died in 1923, before her mother, their maternal grandmother, died in December 1929. Clarence listed his paternal grandmother, Edna (Adamson) Emanuel Whisler, as his next of kin, the person who would always know his address, when he registered for the World War II draft on 16 October 1940.6,1

Father*Charles Emanuel1,2 b. 19 Jul 1885, d. 3 Dec 1918
Mother*Sarah Russell1,2 b. Nov 1896, d. Jun 1923
Birth*1913Della M. Emanuel was born about 1913 in Gibbon, Buffalo County, Nebraska.1,2 
(Daughter) RelocationAfter the death of her father in December 1918, her mother moved with Della and her brother, Clarence, to Omaha, Douglas County, Nebraska, to be close to their mother's sister, their aunt, Bertha (Russell) Byers, and her family. Arrangements were made with their uncle Guy A. Byers's brother, James O. Byers, who was a widower with a young daughter, Margarite, and lived nearby, for Della, her brother and mother to live in James O. Byers's house. Unfortunately, we have not been able to identify James, or any members of his household, on the 1920 census.3,4,5,6 
(Daughter) Residence According to today's (2022) map, James O. Byers's house at 3701 Spaulding Street, Omaha and Guy A. Byers's house at 3802 38th Street, Omaha, are one block away from each other, a distance of 407 feet, with an estimated walking time of one minute.6,5,3,4 
Census US 1930*22 April 1930Della and Clarence Curtis Emanuel. were enumerated on the 1930 census taken on 22 April 1930 in the Nebraska State School for the Blind, Nebraska City, Otoe County, Nebraska. Della was recorded as 16 years old, and Clarence as age 14. Both were able to read and write and both had attended school within the census year. Our research has not indicated that either Della or Clarence was visually impaired, and we wonder if they were residents of the school because they were orphans. Their father died in 1918 and their mother died in 1923, before her mother, their maternal grandmother, died in December 1929. Clarence listed his paternal grandmother, Edna (Adamson) Emanuel Whisler, as his next of kin, the person who would always know his address, when he registered for the World War II draft on 16 October 1940.7,8

John Emanuel1

b. 24 June 1857, d. 11 February 1923
Family
Father*Jacob Emanuel2 b. 1827
Mother*Mahala Truett2 b. 1829
Birth*24 June 1857John Emanuel was born on 24 June 1857 in Bedford, Pike County, Illinois.1,3 
Name VariationHis full name was John Jerome Emanuel.3 
(Son) Census US 187010 June 1870John was enumerated on the 1870 census taken on 10 June 1870 in the household of his parents in Washington, Warren County, Iowa. He was 13 years old, able to read although not yet to write, and had attended school within the census year.2 
Marriage*He married first Lettie Burthoff.4 
Research Notes*The marriage of John Emanuel and Lettie (Burthoff) Emanuel ended shortly after the birth of their son, Harry, in February 1881. Whether Lettie died, or they divorced, we don't know. The only record we have found that mentions them is the marriage of their son in December 1904 when they were identified as his parents. We've not found Lettie or John on the 1880 census, or any record for Harry before his marriage. We suspect Harry was raised by his father and his second wife because Harry's Find a Grave memorial is linked to theirs; however when his father and stepmother were listed in the 1885 Kansas state census, Harry was not listed with them. We've learned nothing at all about Lettie, other than there are many variations to the spelling of her surname. We would very much appreciate hearing from anyone who knows who Lettie was, where she and John were for the 1880 census, together if they were married, or separately if they were not, and where Harry was on the 1900 census. Please contact us if you are able and willing to help.4,5,6

Edna's parents, Lucinda, and Ithamar Adamson, were listed in the first household above John and Edna on the same census page.6
