Portia May Corbin was the daughter of Lewis (Louis) F. Corbin and Sarah Frances Busbee. Portia married August Frederick Maschewski Jr. on 30 Sep 1920.

According to the 1910 Census of Vernon County, Clear Creek Township, Missouri, Portia was 17 and she and her mother (age 48) were living with her 23 year old brother, James O. Corbin.

According to the 1920 Federal Census of Cedar County, ElDorado Springs, MO Portia was 27 years old, living with her mother (age 58). Her grandfather Moss Busbee (age 81) and grandmother Louisa Busbee (age 67) were living next door.

In the 1930 Federal Census of Speedwell, St. Clair County, MO, Portia was 37 years old and had married August Frederick Maschewski Jr. when they were both 27 years old. Portia's 76 year old widowed mother Sarah Corbin was living with them. At the next dwelling was August Jr.'s father (August Frederick Maschewski Sr.), his step-mother Rachel (Yeoman) Maschewski and his half-siblings.

August Jr. and Portia did not have any children, perhaps because they did not marry until they were 27 years old. In those days that was quite old to be getting married for the first time.
