Narrative

Note: Researching Theresa Elizabeth (Gromeaux) Thomas and family

I have found very little information so far on Theresa, her husband, and her two known children at this point, despite her uncommon surname and likely at least in part because of her husband's very common name.

Her husband, Charles Edward Thomas, gave his birthdate as 20 Oct 1903 on their marriage license; his Ohio birth record, though, reports his birthdate as 20 Oct 1904.

After their marriage in 1925, the next record I am able to find for their family is the 1930 US Census record for Charles' household in Fort Wayne, Allen Cty, Indiana. This listing included Charles, Theresa, and their four-year-old daughter Maurine.

The next records I can find, chronologically, are marriage records for two children - one for Maurine Claire Thomas to William Franklin Boussom on 23 Jan 1946 in Los Angeles Cty, California, and the other for Gerald Allen Thomas on 21 Sep 1957, also in Los Angeles Cty. I have not found 1940 US Census listings for any member of the household at this time, nor have I found whether Theresa and Charles had any further children.

There is a California Death Index record for Theresa E. Thomas on 22 Jan 1969 which gives her birthplace as Indiana and gives the same birthdate as reported on her marriage record, while naming her mother "Gibbson."

I have not found confirmed birthdates for either of Theresa's known children, nor have I found a burial location for either Theresa or her husband Charles (for whom I have also not found a confirmed death date). There are some public records that turn up that suggest Maurine's name may be spelled "Maureen," and her married surname was initially presumed to be "Boussom" from her marriage license but also may be spelled "Bausom" in some records.
