    Notes 
    • After their parents both died in Arizona, Mildred, Ruby, Elzora and Fay can all be found on the 1930 Missouri census in St. Louis, Missouri. The four girls are all described as "inmates" of the Masonic Home of Missouri, and listed as Mildred, age 11, born Missouri; Ruby, age 8, born Missouri, Elzora age 7, born Missouri, and Fay, age 5, born Missouri. The Masonic Home of Missouri, was an institution for the elderly and homeless children, supported by Missouri Masonry. It has been located at 5351 Delmar since 1889; however, the oldest of its present buildings dates from 1914. The western portion of its site was the location of the Jewish Hospital, at 5415 Delmar from 1902 to 1927 when it moved to 216 South Kings Highway. Since acquisition of that property, the Masons have erected several structures for expansion of the Home, the latest building, a residential hall, was finished in 1959.
