Sidney Dewitt Ailes household, 1940, Shelby County Ohio

Located the 1940 census record of the Sidney Dewitt Ailes household in Shelby County, Ohio.  The enumerator listed him as "S.D. Ailes".  Sidney was my paternal 2nd cousin 3 times removed - our common ancestor was Phillip Young (1787-1850).

1940 U.S. Census, Shelby County, Ohio, population schedule, Pemberton, enumeration district (ED) 75-24, SD 4, sheet 10A, household 217, ; digital images, Ancestry.com (www.ancestry.com : accessed 18 December 2016); National Archives, Washington, D.C..

At the time of the enumeration, Sidney and his wife were living in Pemberton, Shelby County, Ohio.  He owned his home and it was valued at $1600.  Sidney was 52 years old and born in Ohio.  His wife, Lina, was 54 years old and also born in Ohio.  In 1935, they were living at the same residence.

The record shows that Sidney had completed 4 years of college and the Lina had completed the 8th grade.  Sidney's occupation was that of a teacher at a public school.

Also living in the household were son Wayne, age 26, born in Ohio who had completed 4 years of high school and was working as an inspector in a cast aluminum plant; son Ned, age 20, born in Ohio and had completed 4 years of high school and was working as a plater in a nickel plating plant; and son John, age 15, born in Ohio and had completed 2 years of high school.

Additional boarders were living in the household as well : Ray Pepper, age 25, born in Ohio, working as a plater in a nickel plating plant; Frances Newhouse, age 21, born in Ohio, a teacher in a public school; and Nettie Mendel, age 21, born in Ohio, a teacher in a public school.

I do not know of any family connections between these lodgers and the family - likely they were living there to help out the financial situation.

Sidney's two daughters, Clara and May are not in this census, likely they have married - will need further research.

If you have any additional information or are connected to this family, I'd love to hear from you.

Death Record, Bertha G. Fuchs, 1943, Montgomery County, Ohio

"Ohio, Deaths, 1908-1953," database with images, FamilySearch(https://familysearch.org/ark:/61903/1:1:X84M-Q7K : accessed 5 September 2015), Bertha G Fuchs, 23 Mar 1943; citing Dayton, Montgomery, Ohio, reference fn 18983; FHL microfilm 2,024,128.

Located the death record of Bertha G. Ailes (1888-1943), my paternal 2nd cousin 3 times removed, the daughter of Ethan Dewitt and Mary (Schaefer) Ailes.  Our common ancestor is Phillip Young.  I've been utilizing the Ohio death database at FamilySearch to update missing data in my RootsMagic database.

Bertha died March 23, 1943 in Dayton, Montgomery County, Ohio of carcinoma of the uterus.  She was residing at 124 Kirkham in Dayton.  She was buried in the Calvary Cemetery in Kettering, Montgomery County, Ohio.

According to her death certificate, Bertha was born March 13, 1888 in Dayton.  Her death certificate gave me the name of her mother as Mary Schaefer.

I know that John and Bertha had at least two children Walter and Mary.  I have more to search to find out if there were additional children and to learn about John's information.

Census Sunday : John G. Fuchs household, 1940, Montgomery County, Ohio

My paternal first cousin 4 times removed, Ethan Dewitt Ailes, was enumerated in the 1940 U.S. census in Montgomery County, Ohio.  He was living in Ward 7 of the city of Dayton in the household of his son-in-law, John G. Fuchs.

The family consisted of John G. Fuchs, aged 56, and his wife, Bertha, aged 52.  John was born in New York and Bertha was born in Ohio.  Living in the household was daughter Mary, aged 16, born in Ohio; son Walter, aged 21, born in Ohio; daughter-in-law, Mare, aged 21, born in Ohio; grandson Carl, aged 6 months, born in Ohio, and father-in-law, Ethan D. Ailes, aged 78, born in Ohio.

John had completed the 8th grade, and Bertha had completed the 6th grade.  John's occupation was hard to read, it was a s___ clerk, in Soil Conservation.  Bertha had no occupation listed.  Son Walter's occupation was listed as drill press operator.

Before finding this record, I didn't have any information on Ethan Dewitt Ailes' family.  Will have to search for records of his marriage and other children.  Ethan was the son of Alfred Ailes and Melissa Jane Young.

Sidney Dewitt Ailes: World War II Draft Registration

Sidney Dewitt AILES was born August 22, 1887 in Montra, Shelby County, Ohio, the son of John Forsyth and Rebecca Lovina (DRUMM) AILES. Sidney was my 2nd cousin 3 times removed, a descendant of Phillip YOUNG. His World War I Draft Registration card can be found here.

At the time of this registration, Sidney was employed by the Perry Township School Board in Pemberton, Ohio, where he was a teacher. The 1930 census lists his occupation as high school principal.

An interesting note to me is that his World War I draft registration, when he was a student at Ohio Northern University, stated that his left leg and arm were partially paralyzed. However, this registration reports no mention of this fact.

Sidney married January 1, 1913 to Lina BAKER. Lina was born January 1, 1886 Jackson Township, Shelby County, Ohio. They had five children. Lina died May 7, 1983 in Pemberton, Ohio. Sidney died November 27, 1971 in Pemberton, Ohio.

Sidney Dewitt Ailes: World War I Draft Registration

 

Sidney Dewitt AILES was born August 22, 1887 in Montra, Shelby County, Ohio, the son of John Forsythe and Rebecca Lovina (DRUMM) AILES.  Sidney was my 2nd cousin 3 times removed, a descendant of Phillip YOUNG.

Sidney married Lina BAKER on January 1, 1913 in Jackson Center, Shelby County, Ohio.  Lina was born January 1, 1866 in Jackson Township, Shelby County, Ohio.  Lina died May 7, 1973 in Pemberton, Ohio.  Sidney died November 27, 1971 in Pemberton, Ohio.

Interesting that at the time of the draft, he was a student at Ohio Northern University in Ada, Ohio.  He was 29 years old, married, with a wife and three children.

The draft registration also reports that his left leg and arm are partially paralyzed.  I wonder what caused that?
