Can anyone advise me how to find out more about Pauline ROGERS, born 1920 ,
the daughter of Henry Irving ROGERS, born about 1893 in Massachusetts, and
Jane Seymour ROGERS (nee BOLT), born in Devon, England. Jane was one of my
father's aunts and my research shows her as born in 1878 . Henry came over
to England in World War 1 , in the 15th Field Co. Canadian Engineers and he
married Jane in 1917, when she gave her age as 28!

Jane emigrated to Massachusetts in 1919 and she, Henry and their one month
old daughter Pauline appear on the 1920 Census at 15, King Cove Road,
Weymouth ., Norfolk County. I can't find Jane and Henry in the 1930 census
but Pauline, age 10, is staying with her Aunt and Uncle, Stanton A Newcomb
( a soldier in the US army) Carrie E Newcomb and their children , plus
Pauline's grandmother Margaret Rogers, at Fort Banks, Winthorp Town, Suffolk
County. Henry and Jane wouldn't have been very old so should be still alive
then - I have tried looking for a death record but am not sure I've looked
in the right place - also Henry Rogers seems to be quite a popular name. Is
there a marriage index where I could look for a marriage for Pauline and
perhaps find some descendants?

Any advice will be much appreciated.

Thank you,
