Darwin M. Chapman In 1920 Census for Newport, Sullivan County, New Hampshire, listed as a painter at the woolen mill. Does NOT appear in 1930 US Census, indicating he may have passed away by that date. He's listed as divorced in 1910 Census, with only Effie living with him.
1920 Newport NH Census for Darwin Chapman, indicates a daughter of 5 years of age, named Justine?. However, all entries are crossed out, along with those of Elmer and Effie J. West, as well as Beatrice and Erma, listed as boarders in Darwin's home. Interestingly, the whole household is crossed out, in the only entry I've seen.
