Ellsworth Swanson
I have another photo of Ellsworth when he was about twelve years old.
We have this information about Ellsworth Swanson.
From Iggy:
Ellsworth was the sole son and oldest child of Marshall and Carrie Swanson.Ellsworth Hamilton Swanson (7 Oct 1896 in Anoka County, Minnesota - 18 Jan 1961)
The 1940 US Census shows him as a dry cleaner with his family:
Wife - Anna Swanson 42
Children: Louise F Swanson 20, Marshall Swanson 17, Robert Emil Swanson 2
Louise Francis (4 Oct 1919 - 18 Apr 2004) she married a Pruitt.
Ellsworth is buried at Fort Snelling Cemetery in Minnesota. On his tombstone it says U.S NAVY, SEA and WORLD WAR I
Thanks for stopping by.
This photo went Full Circle 143 on April 1 2016
Definitely a Navy uniform!
ReplyDeleteI've never seen such a large hat as part of a uniform.
ReplyDeleteOh, I remember that other photo. Just loved it!
ReplyDeleteEllsworth's son Marshall's Find A Grave memorial names his children as well. Maybe some additional clues to help move these photos to a Full Circle??? It's been a while...
I have looked for Marshall Lee Swanson with no luck, the rest of the siblings are girls:(
