Notes

  • The name of this child is probably also James Taylor, like his father, and in fact this child is listed in 1920 as J T Jr.. But the family has no information and I have found no public sources to confirm the full name of further details.

    In the draft registration above, Jams was reported as being unemployed.  He either joined or was drafted into army immediately, because in the June 1940 census, J T was repported as a soldier in California,  He was reiported as James Green, age 21, in Los Angeles County.

    Green, James T Head M W 21 Grade H4 b Oklahoma  Sodaw, Lamb County, Texas in 1935 Occupation Soldier

    His veteran's record show he enlisted in the army in 1941, but we see from the census above that he was already a soldier in a year earlier in April 1940.
