Applegate, Mildred *1916 Cook ? - Moder ?

[Krister Rundqvist]

Hej,
Hoppas att jag är på rätt ställe. Jag söker efter födelsebevis för Mildred J Applegate, hennes far skall vara Charles E Applegate men hon ska ha en svensk mor. Mildred finns med i 1920 års census samt i 1930 års census. I 1930 års census uppges Charles E Applegate vara skild. Hoppas att någon hittar något om vem Charles var gift med och som är moder till Mildred. Mildred bör vara född i Cook co och född antingen 1916 eller 1917. Hoppas på tur!

Tackar!
Då fanns det i alla fall en dotter i USA. Då är det troligen Thelma´s vigsel som sker 1916-09-16 i Chicago, Illinois.
Så då är det bara att söka vidare var dottern tar vägen.

[Krister Rundqvist]

Dotter hittad. Född 1916-05-08 i Chicago. Dottern Mildred gifter sig med en Charles William Pfaff f.1915. de gifter sig 1939-02-25. De skall finnas på träd i Ancestry, jag saknar abonnemang på Ancestry, men om någon har ett abonnemang så skulle jag gärna vilja komma i kontakt med trädägaren. Hoppas på hjälp.

If the daughter Mildred was born 08 May 1916, that would make her parents married after she was born.  Something to ponder later.. I looked up Ancestry.com family trees and did not find anything more than what follows:
