In 1925 state census, was aged 17 _ Cascade Avenue, Lake Placid; dau. of Alfred and Eunice (aged 59, 56), brother of Louis (aged 15). A Eugene Johnson was listed on same road, aged 38 (so born app 1887, roughly same age as Guy).

In 1930 federal census, she listed herself as 28, and said she had first married at 22. She did not work.5

City directory:
1940 Gladys Johnson r 432 Liberty _ same person?

Jos. Peck had found a listing for a May Peck born to this family about 1908, wonders if May might have been her middle name. Purely speculation at this time.

Barbara says she got married sometime around 1956 (not married to Ray when she met her in 1955, but was married when Barbara married. The boys were told they would have to live on their own.)
