Bertha Louise Fletcher^1,2

23 Sep 2022

Birth*	Bertha was born circa 1891 in Massachusetts, d/o Albert A Fletcher & Maud Tripp.2,3
Marriage*	She married Thomas Allen Hoxsey, son of Robert Alex Hoxsey and Florence Virinda Myers, on 11 July 1917 in Spokane, Spokane Co., Washington. This is the 2nd marriage for both Thomas & Bertha. He is widower. She was divorced from her m1 Wheeler. FSTrees claims without citation that Thomas's m1's name was Mary Isabelle Hollingsworth. I can find no evidence for this marriage.2
Census1920*	Bertha and Thomas appeared on the 1920 Federal Census of Spokane, Spokane Co., Washington, enumerated 3 January 1920, as 45 yo plow company laborer Thomas A & 29 yo wife Bertha Hoxsey. Their children (step-daughters to Thomas) 8 yo Francis Maurine & 6 yo Helen Louese Wheeler were listed as living with them, as well as one roomer.3
Marr-Divorce*	Bertha was divorced from Thomas Allen Hoxsey from 3 January 1920 to 11 June 1924. Thomas & Bertha were together in Spokane on the earlier date. He's in Portland on the latter. I find no voter registration in Portland for Bertha so conclude 1924 is a safe late year for the divorce. Thomas is specifically divorced in the 1930 census.3,4

Birth*	Nellie, daughter of Charles Henry More and Sarah Catherine Myers, was born on 4 December 1892 in Kansas.2,1
Census1900	Nellie appeared on the 1900 Federal Census of Pittsburg, Crawford Co., Kansas in the household of her parents, Charles Henry More and Sarah Catherine Myers, as 7 yo daughter Nellie Moore.2
Marriage*	She married Henry Clayton Suggs Jr. on 11 February 1909 in Carthage, Joplin Co., Missour. My preliminary research suggests their children were Ollie Leeroy Suggs (1909-1982, m1 Wilma B Sloan, res. Coffeyville, KS 1930, m2 Virginia Merle Peterson), Henry Suggs (1911- , perhaps m. Judith Vlasie), Violet Gertrude Suggs (1914-1974, m. Frank LoChiano), and Velma Victoria Suggs (1919- , perhaps m. Lenward B Smith). Both Henry & Nellie were of Fort Scott on their Missouri marriage license. The 1910 census says married 2 years w/ 1 born and 1 living.      FSTrees claims Henry m1 Pearl Leona Wolfe in 1900 and had issue Viola Elsie (1901-1987), Daisy Mildred (1903-1984), and Rolland Clayton Suggs (1906-1945).3,4,1
ResearchNote*	Research Note of 22 June 2020 re obits. The obits for both Henry & Nellie say they had four children. I have listed them in the marriage tag as Ollie Leeroy, Henry, Violet Gertrude, and Velma Victoria Suggs. There is adequate evidence to support all four names.      However there's one puzzling person, Howard D Luckey, who claims Henry & Nellie as his parents in his Montana marriage record. I find a 20 yo lodger Henry Suggs in the 1930 census in the home of Fred & Florence Nather in Kessler, Montana. His age is good but birthstate is MO rather than KS. Close enough. Best guess is that Howard D Luckey is Henry Suggs. Whether he changed his name or it's a simple transcription error remains unclear.5
Census1910*	Nellie and Henry appeared on the 1910 Federal Census of Baker Twp., Crawford Co., Kansas, enumerated 21 April 1910, as 30 yo coal mine driver Henery & 17 yo wife Melle N Sugges. Their 1 yo son Ollie Leeroy Sugges was listed as living with them.4

Death*	Nellie died on 14 January 1919 at YMCA Hospital in Pittsburg, Crawford Co., Kansas, at age 26, of pneumonia following influenza. Her headstone was carved wrong and says 04 January but the obituary record makes it clear she died 14 Jan, 12 days after her husband.8,9,1
