Frank O ISAACSON & Florence SMYTH

Father: Frank O ISAACSON

On south 14th Street in Wyandotte County 1910 Florence is living with her husband of five years Frank O Isaacson and her mother Nancy Smyth 81. Also there is a child there listed as the stepson of Frank O Isaacson named Archie, the last name is hard to make out. Strangely both, Frank and Florence say this is the first marriage for both, so one of them must have had an illegitimate child by someone else. According to the next census Archie has moved out, Nancy is deceased and it is just Florence and Frank O Isaacson who apparently did not have any children.

Mother: Florence SMYTH, (daughter of Robert Coleman SMYTH), b. 1864, Kentucky

Florence has taken care of her mother Nancy who is blind for a period of 7 years according to the pension request of Nancy W Smyth in 1906 after Robert C Smyths death. In 1910 she and her husband Frank O Isaacson are living on south 14th Street in Wyandotte County and indeed Nancy is still living there. Also there is a son Archie , whose last name I can't make out but he is a step son of Frank Isaacson and obviously the son of Florence by a first husband > Oddly though, both say this is their first marriage, so perhaps Florence was not married to little Archie's father or the census taker got it wrong. Florence also says in 1910 she has had 3 children and only one is living. She does not go on to have other children with Frank Isaacson according to 1920 census in Wyandotte County.

Child:

  1. Archie ---, b. ABT 1901, Kansas
