Lon CRAWFORD & Beulah LaVene KRAMER
Father: Lon CRAWFORD, (son of Lon Stewart CRAWFORD), b. 11 Jun 1918, Missouri, d. Apr 1987, Leavenworth Kansas
Birth info and death info comes from Lon's social security card at ancestry.com. He is also found on the census at ancestry.com in 1920. Efforts to place him on a census after that date have not been successful. His parents are confirmed on the census and through information from Sharon Crawford Seymour, his daughter.
Mother: Beulah LaVene KRAMER, (daughter of Ralph Norman KRAMER), b. 13 Jul 1920, Kansas, d. Jun 1988, Kansas
Her daughter Sharon Crawford Seymour said her mother's first name was Beulah, although she went by LaVene . She worked for the Leavenworth Country club in Leavenworth , Kansas . In 1930 she is found with her father and mother and siblings in Reeder, Anderson County Kansas. She is listed as LeVena B on the census. Often times, names are misspelled and indeed the family is listed under the spelling of Cramer, although in reality their last name began with a 'K“ according to Sharon. In 1930 she is 9 making her born in around 1921. She is listed as being born in KS. She lived with my brother George Frederick Seymour IV and my sister in law Sharon at the time of her death from what I recall was a brain tumour. She was a woman with a great sense of humor who was very independent and she had a quick wit. I also thought she was quite stylish.
