Name VariationHis full name was Vernon Earnest Olson.2 
Marriage*1907He married first, as her first husband, Hazel Mae Gaston, daughter of Clarence G. Gaston and Effie J. Smith, about 1907.3,4 
(Father) Death7 April 1908Vernon and Hazel's baby son, Vernon, died of complications from whooping cough on 7 April 1908 at the age of 5 months, 15 days. His death certificate appears hastily written and reported his place of death as 2930 Broadway, Council Bluffs, Iowa. We suspect he actually died at 3029 Broadway, Council Bluffs, Pottawattamie County, Iowa, the home of his maternal grandparents.5 
Arrest*9 April 1909Vernon Olson was arrested the morning of 9 April 1909 in Medical Lake, Spokane County, Washington, on the charge of deserting his wife, Hazel Olson, in Council Bluffs, Iowa. The arrest was made on instructions received by wire at the Medical Lake sheriff's office from the constable's office at Council Bluffs.

He did not desert his wife, he claimed, but left her $50, all the money he had except what he needed for the trip, and the plan was understood by her that he would send for her as soon as he could become located in Washington.4 
(Brother-in-Law) Census US 19102 May 1910Vernon E. Olson was enumerated on the 1910 census taken on 2 May 1910 in the household of his sister and brother-in-law, Pearl and Henry J.

He had not been working on April 15, and had been out of work for 36 weeks in 1909.6 
Divorce*After remaining separated for at least two years following the death of their infant son, Vernon and Hazel were probably divorced. Vernon may have remained in Spokane without returning to Iowa at all. He married his second wife in Spokane in 1916. Hazel married her second husband about that same time.5,4,6,7,3,8 
Marriage*4 July 1916He married second, as her first husband, Ida Fern Vohs on 4 July 1916 in Spokane, Spokane County, Washington.7

Elizabeth Orcutt1,2

b. 1696
Father*William Orcutt Jr.1,2 b. 1664, d. 10 Apr 1739
Mother-Probable*Jane Washburn1,2 b. b 1672, d. b 21 Sep 1698
Birth*1696Elizabeth Orcutt was probably born in Bridgewater, Plymouth County, Massachusetts Bay Province (New England), say about 1696 or earlier.1,2 
Research Opinion*Elizabeth was named in her father's will, and if born in 1696, would have married at age 21. While the Mayflower Cooke source chose caution and identified Jane Washburn as Joanna's possible mother, this researcher believes Jane the more probable choice since Joanna's father William Orcutt Jr. and Hannah Smith didn't marry until 21 September 1698.1 
Marriage*31 January 1716/17She married Ebenezer French, son of Joseph French and Experience Foster, on 31 January 1716/17 in Bridgewater, Plymouth County, Massachusetts Bay Province (New England).1,3,4

Birth*1694Joanna Orcutt was probably born in Bridgewater, Plymouth County, Massachusetts Bay Province (New England), say about 1694 or earlier.1,2 
Research Opinion*Joanna was named in her father's will, and if born in 1690 and married at age 25, would have been age 46 at the birth of her tenth child. Or if born in 1694 and married at age 21, she would have been 42 when her tenth child was born. While the Mayflower Cooke source chose caution and identified Jane Washburn as Joanna's possible mother, this researcher believes Jane the more probable choice since Joanna's father William Orcutt Jr. and Hannah Smith didn't marry until 21 September 1698.1 
Marriage*14 July 1715She married Benjamin Edson, son of Joseph Edson and Experience __?__, on 14 July 1715 in Bridgewater, Plymouth County, Massachusetts Bay Province (New England).3,4,5

Under the agreement their mother was to have the house and lands adjoining it with the benefits and privileges thereof until her son Thomas reached the age of 21. At that time, the widow Orcutt was to continue to have full and free liberty to live in the house and to improve it for her own use during her widowhood, to receive four acres of broken up and improved land and to have firewood provided for her.3,5

Court Action*March 1722/23Court documents of Plymouth County during the March 1722/23 term show the presentment of Martha (Orcutt) Leonard, wife of Joseph Leonard of Bridgewater, who was absent from worship.

Court Action*1749Plaintiff "Martha Leonard, who was the wife of Joseph Leonard late of Bridgewater... Yeoman, Deceased" sued Jonathan Chandler, a Bridgewater Yeoman in 1749 "That instantly without delay he render to said Martha her reasonable Dower." Martha was represented by Daniel Johnson Esq. of Bridgewater. Plaintiff demanded a messuage and 7 acres in Bridgewater, of which her husband was seized "during the Coverture and whereof she hath nothing (as She Saith) and the said Martha Leonard Complains that the said Jonathan Chandler hath Deforced her thereof and then and there to Shew Cause why to the said Martha Leonard her reasonable Dower as aforesaid he doth not render etc." Defendant pleaded in abatement that (1) the writ identified Joseph Leonard as "Yeoman", when he never had "the Estate to make him so", that (2) the writ did not list plaintiff's "Addition... Neither of Town or County, which is absolutely Necessary and without which She cannot be rightly known", and that (3) the writ listed defendant Jonathan Chandler as a "Yeoman, which is Wrong, for he is a Bloomer." The defendant was overruled and then pleaded that he did set off her dower to her. The Jury verdict was for the plaintiff and included her dower, 10s in damages, and costs, taxed at £2.11s.5d. The defendant appealed, with Daniel Johnson Esq. of Bridgewater and James Hovey of Plymouth as sureties. No further record.14 
Death*30 September 1752She was possibly the unnamed Leonard widow who died on 30 September 1752 in Bridgewater.3,15,2
