Misc. Notes
In 1909, Arthur allegedly was kidnapped by a gang of bank robbers. But given his subsequent history, he was obviously released. [3270]

Based on death certificate he arrived in El Paso, Texas, about 1924. [3016]

Alias/AKAMaud [2317]
FatherDavid LEWELLEN (ca1868-)
Misc. Notes
Witnesses to Maud’s 1938 marriage were Louise and Lloyd ORR (her son). [3023]
Married 3rd husband as Maude E. GREENSWEIGHT, rather than using her previous married name. [3023], [3024]
Research
I have not been able to locate Maud in 1920 nor Richard in 1910.
The 1920 census would have been taken in January, 1920, just six
months before she married Arthur GREENSWEIGHT. Lloyd was born circa 1914,
so that seems to narrow down the time of the divorce and explains
why Richard did not mention Maud when he registered for the draft.

Alias/AKABeulah STEERS [8100]
FatherWilliam STEERS (~1888-)
MotherMary SULLIVAN (~1889-)
Research
A “Beulah Fern STEERS” born 15 Aug 1915, Lewistown, MT, had the following apparent married surnames according to Social Security records:
1946: YOHE; 1948: BARRAGO; 1949: FLEMING; 1972: SALSER.
But not GREENSWEIGHT. This suggests she reverted to YOHE after the end of her marriage to Arthur.

on 10 Mar 1941, a Beula Fern YOHE, married Harry G. SALVEY, at Juárez, Chihuahua, México. (Chihuahua, Mexico, Civil Registration Marriages, 1861-1967)
