Narrative

Note: Researching Jessie Dewey

Thus far, I have found very limited information for Jessie, the youngest daughter of Cyrus and Vergie (Stuver) Zentmyer. She appears in the 1920 US Census listing for her parents' household, and in 1938 she married Jairl Dewey in Steuben Cty, Indiana. Shortly after, she's found again in her parents' household in the 1940 US Census, listed as married but apparently without Jairl listed in the same household. I've found no further record of her after that point, and the only record I have found for Jairl after their marriage is a death record for him in 1960, from Los Angeles Cty, California.

I suspect they may have divorced shortly after their marriage, but I cannot confirm this; the death record information for Jairl in the index does not provide his marital status. I also have no information on any children they may have had, if any.

ADDENDUM: A public Ancestry.com tree (owner "JoyceBetz") gives her date of death as 1988, in Michigan; no source is cited. No information seems present in the tree with regards to Jessie's marriage to Jairl Dewey.
