More Sources for James H. Waters

In 1920, Arlie lived in South Dakota and listed herself as "widowed."  James H., Great Grandpa's son, was eleven. 
In 1930, James H. was married to Adeline and living in Idaho.  He was a "laborer." 


 His World War I draft registration listing Basil (Nancy Belle's brother, born 1901) as his nearest relative. He's still in Idaho, but in a different county.

Here's the World War II registration in Josephine County, Oregon, where he stayed until his death.  It is interesting to notice the difference in signatures between this and the marriage license with Sallie.
Oregon State record listing James' death as April 20, 1960. Finally, one last record, showing his military service in the Spanish American War and the location of his grave.

Record of graves of Spanish American War members of the military: WATERS, JAMES, Pvt.,
2nd Tennessee Volunteer Infantry, Co. M (February 17, 1877 – April 20, 1960)(Granite Hill Cemetery, Grants Pass, Josephine Co., OR)
