My interest is in Elbert N. Mitchell who was living in Lincoln, Placer County, California at the time of the 1930 census.

Elbert N. Mitchell / head / 78 yo b. MO / parents b. MO / mail carrier for postal service
Lillie J. Mitchell / wife / 65 yo b. TN / first m. at 21 yrs. / parents b. TN
Fannie B. McKinney / step-dau / 40 yo b. Miss / first m. at 15 yrs. / father b. Miss. / mother b. TN
Bert McKinney / step-son / 47 yo b. CO / first m. at 45 yrs. / father b. OH / mother b. MO / air hammer operator at clay pit.

Elbert Mitchell d. 13 Feb 1940 in Lincoln, Placer County, California
Bert McKinney / McKenney / McKinnie d. Jan 1834 also in Lincoln

I can find no further information about either Lillie Mitchell or her daughter, Fannie B. McKinney.

I believe that Fannie’s maiden name was McCall and that she was born in Franklin County, Mississippi.

Can anyone help me? Thank you!!
