!B He was 52 years old when he married Craguss. Check 1920 census to se e if
he might have possibly had children (if wife young enough). This is
probably the best way to see if there are descendants. They would b e in

merge BLP8-HF and B0M9-N0. His second wife, Mary Ellen Cragen 23Z5-XR is
correct. Mary Ellen JENSEN PNDW-9L should ben merged with it and also Ma ry
Ellen CRAGUSS, (mine)PJSW-R0. Make sure from second marriage record tha t Jensen
is the same as Cragen. Merged the 2 valton merrill pratts and the 23Z5-x r with
pjsw-r0 on mary Ellen. Need to be sure Jensen is same person as Cragen . Pratt
Family Association said this is correct and her kids' names are Jensen.
Possibly check obit to see if her name mentioned as Jensen. Then check m arriage
certificate to double-check this.
