    I just got an answer from the State Archives guy who researches adoptions.  No record ever of any Hardwick's with name changes at all.  So, I guess if his real mother was this H. Lucy Madantz then maybe he just was taken in by the Hardwick's and used their name.  That is kind of what happened with my uncle.  His real name is Hardwick on his birth record but he took the name of his step father Flynn and has used it his entire life.  Never was adopted.

    P.S.  I had another thought, perhaps Jesse was the illegitimate son of Thomas Hardwick and this woman.  A similar thing as that also took place in my husband's family.  He had a relative who was married and got this young lady pregnant.  When she had the baby she had a nervous breakdown and named him as the father and the hospital called him up and told him to come pick up his daughter.  His wife was not happy, but they kept and raised the little girl.

    On a WWI Draft Registration card dated Sept. 12, 1918, Jesse James Hardwick born July 4, 1882, is living in Portland, and his mother's name is H. Lucy Madantz.  His home address is 52nd and Platt.  Mother's address is the same.  He is a farm laborer and his employers name is R.B. Morehouse in Klondyke, Oregon.

    Jesse James Hardwick buried in Dufur Cemetry was born in 1882.  

    Jesse Hardwick adopted nephew of the Sanders was born July 1882.



    Do you think the Hardwicks might have adopted him?

      I had seen this census before but couldn't get the previous page to open so didn't know the name of the people who supposedly adopted him.  If he really was a nephew the wife must have been his mother's sister.  He was back living with his parents and brother Noah in the 1910 Census also in Whitman County, WA.

      He is buried in the Dufur Cemetery.



      On the 1900 census, Whitman County, Branham Precinct, Washington, he is living with David M. Sanders 62, and Barbara C. Sanders 53.  The were both born in MO.  Jesse Hardwick is listed as an adopted nephew.



      Do you remember the address of Jesse in the Portland Directory?
