The biiig question is. . . .what else do you know about her?

 

People referred to her as "Aunt Rose" or "Aunt Ruth?"  Never discussion of a
family? 

 

Sometimes we have to really go around the block on these.

Thank you for all of your work finding Rose Tompkins' marriage.
Unfortunately, none of them seem right.  Her father was Paul Tompkins, born
in Pennsylvania and mother Laura Hartzell, born in Ohio.  Maybe she was a
modern woman and just lived in sin, so to speak.
Thanks again
Lynda

Tried searching Family Search Oregon marriage collections for these ten
couples and turned up not one of them in any combination of Surname with
spouse Rose or Ruth. I didn't try Rose Sides etc since listing her mother as
Nevin makes me think it is highly unlikely she is the right person.

 

Darn again.

> 

In 1920, we find 7 "Ruth" entries born in Oregon ca 1894, mother born Ohio,
who are married:

 

Ruth E Bowder, Portland, (father b Oregon) husband, D Frank  

Ruth Frank, Portland, (father b PA)  husband Aaron (1930 indicates they have
been married about 13 years)

Ruth E Johnson, Seaside, (father b Oregon) husband, Oscar J (1930 has them
married 10 years)

Ruth Mehlin, Burlingame, San Mater County, California (father b Wisconsin)
(b 1893) husband Arthur C)

Ruth V Pierce, Lakewood Ward 3, Cuyahoga, Ohio, (father b Ohio) husband
Harry L (b 1893)

Ruth Probst, LA, LA County, CA, (father b Iowa) husband Lloyd

Ruth A Van Cleve, Central Howell, Marion County, Oregon, (father b
Switzerland)  husband Vernon B

 

The only "choice" here, given the parameter of father's birthplace, is Ruth
Frank, in Portland. However, she and Aaron have a son, Richard S, who is 1
year, 11 months old.  The enumeration is dated 6 Jan 1920, which means he
was born ca Feb 1918.

 

Dang.

 

Using "Rose" we find three:

 

Rose Hunt, Moscow, Idaho, (father b PA), husband Lenord P (Lemuel in 1930,
married about 12 years, oldest dau is 10)

Rose Sides/Siden/Sidor/Nevin (whew), Vallejo, Solano County, California,
husband not present, mother is Cora Nevin. 

Rose Zimmerman, Bethel, Kitsap County, WA, father born Ohio, husband is Hary
(Harry C in 1930 married about 12 years, oldest son is 6)
