There is a Thomas Coakley and wife Emma living next to John and Gertrude.  This
appears to be Gertrude's parents.
1920 federal census  Harbor Creek Twp.,West District fhl# 1,821,567;
Al,Lucile and Deanne Sweet supplied family information on this family.
June Sweet Bules, Gladys Nash Sweet and Pearl Fye Sweet also supplied family
information on their families.

Unable to locate a marriage certificate in Ashtubula County,OH where the
children were born. All family members including a sister of Gertrude's said
the marriage was in Ashtabula but there is no record.
Frances said married three years in the 1910 fed. census so they would have
been married before 16 Apr 1907.

Have copy of application for annuity for Frances for John's Railroad
retirement.  She gave the marriage date as 20 Aug 1907 in Kenmore,New York;
Question on the middle initial for John on this application.  It looked like an
M and we have his middle name as Lawrence  which seems reasonable as his sister
Myrtle named her second son Lawrence.

Name of father and mother given on death cert.  Also known by family members.
Frances Gertrude was always called Fannie  by her husband John.  Frances had a
sister in law who was Gertrude Coakley

1900 Federal Census Ashtabula,Astabula,Oh GSF@ 1,241,238;
Gertrude enumerated with her parents Thomas and Annie C. Coakley 10 years of
age and born Apr 1890 in Ohio.  This date conflicts with family's date of
birth. Also conflicts with the birthdate Gertrude gave on the application for
her husbnd John's annuity.

Need to look up John and Frances Gertrude Sweet in the 1910 and 1920 fed.
cens. to see how old she is to try and decide which birthdate to use.
