Just darling
Cracked it. At the date of the 1930 census Fred A Wright, age 39, and his wife Esther A (Aldray) Wright, age 38, were living at 1312 Bennett Ave, Long Beach, California, with their three children, James W "Jamie" Wright, age 7, Martha J, age 6, and Janet M, age 2 years 3 months. Also staying with them was Esther's brother, Albert Aldray, age 50. Fred was a public school teacher and was born in Iowa, Esther and her brother Albert, a hotel steward, were born in Wisconsin, James and Martha Jean were born in Iowa, and Janet was born in California.
Wow!! You're a great detective!! :)

I'm a Founder of AncientFaces and support the community answering questions & helping members make connections to the past (thus my official title of Founder & Content and Community Support ). For me, it's been a labor of love for over 20 years. I truly believe with all of my heart that everyone should be remembered for generations to come. I am 2nd generation San Jose and have seen a lot of changes in the area while growing up. We used to be known as the "Valley of Heart's Delight" (because the Valley was covered with orchards and there were many canneries to process the food grown here, which shipped all over the US) - now we have adopted the nickname "Capital of Silicon Valley" and Apple, Ebay, Adobe, Netflix, Facebook, and many more tech companies are within a few miles of my current home in San Jose (including AncientFaces). From a small town of 25,000, we have grown to 1 million plus. And when you add in all of the communities surrounding us (for instance, Saratoga, where I attended high school, living a block from our previous Mayor), we are truly one of the big cities in the US. I am so very proud of my hometown. For more information see Kathy - Founder & Content and Community Director
My family began AncientFaces because we believe that unique photos and stories that show who people are/were should be shared with the world.
