Notes |
- Menton was raised by his grandmother, Isabelle Melissa Thompson Arledge. His parentage is unknown.
In the 1900 census, Menton is in the household of Isabelle Melissa (known as "Melissie" or "Lit") born July 1886, father born MS, mother born TX. Melissa is listed as HOH, and notes that he is her grandson. She was born in MS, not TX, further evidence that he is not her son.
In the 1920 census (I have not been able to find him in 1910), he is listed in Milam Cty., TX in the household of Frances Bonner, age 75, who is the mother of his first wife. He is listed as Menton ALDRICH. It also lists his wife, Jennie, age 29, sons Willie, 19 and Clifton 17, and daughter Jennie, age 15. This does not seem to fit, since the mother is only 10 years older than the oldest child. (One more thing to research!)
I have found Menton Williams Arledge in the IGI as married to May Simpson on July 15, 1926 in Rockdale, TX. This fits with info I found in a cemetery book listing Menton Arledge (1886-1958) and May Arledge (1884-1964) as buried in the International Order of Foresters (IOOF) Cemetery in Rockdale. IGI also says that May Simpson was born July 7, 1884 in Brownsville, TX, daughter of Louis Simpson and Sallie Gallop. [Craig Baumbach]
The marriage is actually Menton to May McBroon. [ggh]
