• Notes

  Divorced: Did this couple actually divorce? or did they just remain separated? In the 1950 US federal census (Seattle, King, Washington), Edwin W. Cheska, a guest at the Publix Hotel, is listed as 'divorced.' Meanwhile, Lila Cheska (also Seattle, King, Washington, at 1705 13th Ave S) is listed as 'separated.'
