Notes:

NOTE 1./ The 1930 census was taken in the 1121 Military District of Worth County on 4-11-1930. One of the questions on the 1930 census inquires as to whether the individual was at work yesterday ? (or the last working day) Aarons response was NO. The next question on the census inquires as to " the line # for unemployment ", to which Aaron 's response is 16. This seems to indicate that Aaron may have been sick, at the time of census, since he was living and working? on his fathers farm as a laborer. He was dead by June 2, 1930, about 50 days later.
