General
Augustus Ezra, "Zeke", was born either in East Boston before the family returned to Maine, or in Bangor after they got back. His 1920 Census information, while he was still living with his parents, says he was born in Maine. His daughter Barbara's birth record says East Boston, but her marriage record says Maine. A picture of him as almost newborn, with his mother, was taken in Maine according to the inscription. I did not find his birth record in the Massachusetts Vital Records online at NewEnglandAncestors.org. I haven't found him yet at ancestry.com in the Maine or Massachusetts Births as Page, Jenkins, or Crimm. |

Event Note
Bangor Daily News, August 6, 1929, page 12, column 4:
Bangor Daily News, Tuesday, August 20, 1929, page 8, column 1: notes: William M Mumler, age 21, was living at 140 Walnut Ave, Roxbury, not far from Alpine Street where the Paiges were living in 1929. On the 1930 census his occupation was "mapper in an office" and on the List of Residences in Boston it was "clerk." His father, William M Mumler, Sr., was a "musician, orchestra", born in Maine. question: Did Zeke go back to Maine with his sister Florence and William Mumler? They probably wouldn't have traveled unaccompanied back then. Zeke was on the List of Residents of Boston in 1928 but was back in Maine by the 1930 census. |
