He was 30 yrs. old at the age of his first marriage, she was 22, so apparently she was married previously . There are no children living with them in 1930. They owned their own home, valued at $6,000 (among the most expensive on the block) and a radio. He was a WWI veteran, working at a brewing plant as a bottler. She did not work outside the home.

The F.O.E. on his tombstone would indicate he was a member of the Fraternal Order of Elks.
