Narrative

Note: The marriages and children of Russell Dewey Voirol

Russell first married in late 1918, to Pearl Rosella Gladieux, and the two of them were counted in the 1920 US Census in Fort Wayne, Allen Cty, Indiana, with their six-month-old daughter Vivian Delores. Just over a year after that census listing was recorded, their second child, daughter Virginia Rose, was born. Russell and Pearl remained married for a handful of years more, and then divorced (likely in Allen Cty) in July of 1926.

Pearl went on to remarry eight months later to Joseph Stuckey (b. 6 Feb 1898), and she and her two daughters were counted with him in the 1930 US Census in Fort Wayne. By the time of the 1940 US Census, though, Pearl and Joseph had divorced, and Pearl was living with her oldest daughter Vivian - who had married in early 1938 to Robert Charles Smith (b. 19 Jul 1916) - in Harrison Twp, Van Wert Cty, Ohio, along with their infant son Jerome Lee. Some time after 1940, Pearl appears to have remarried again, as she is buried with the surname Toney. I have not found specific information regarding that marriage, including her husband's name and vital dates, and I do not know if that marriage lasted until death.

Pearl's younger daughter, Virginia, remained in Fort Wayne and was living alone in the spring of 1940, and married later that same year to Chester Ostrowski (b. 18 Aug 1919).

Vivian and her husband, Robert, remained married until his death in 1988, and in addition to their son Jerome Lee, had a second son (Michael Charles) in the autumn of 1947. Virginia does not appear to have remained married to Chester, and I have not found any further information as to whether she remarried or had children.

Returning to Russell, after his divorce from Pearl he did not remarry until three years later, in 1929, to Lillian Buckmaster, a young woman not yet twenty-two years old. The two of them were counted in the 1930 and 1940 US Censuses living in Fort Wayne, and divorced sometime after 1940. No children were present in those census listings, and I have not found any indication that the couple had any children. They appear to have divorced sometime after 1940, and I have not found further record of Lillian after that.

In late 1946, Russell married again - this time to Ruth (Wiese) Edmonds, a widow born in Fort Wayne to German immigrants. I do not have information on Ruth's previous marriage, nor whether she had children. She and Russell appear to have remained married until her death in 1956, with his following in 1964. The couple are buried together in Monroeville Memorial Cemetery in Monroeville, Allen Cty, Indiana.

That I know of, Jerome Lee Smith and Michael Charles Smith were Russell's only grandchildren, and at the time of Michael's death in 2011, he was survived by his daughter (who passed away in late 2016) and one granddaughter. I do not have information as to whether Jerome has had any children.
