I am indexing Washington state 1930 Federal Census, Cowlitz county Brinion? Mtn Precinct and have a Harvey R Nurss, 34 (age last birthday-the info was taken 3 Apr 1930)born in Idaho wife Lucile 27 (Oregon)and daughter Betty 8 (Oregon). Ages at first marriage are 25 and 18. He is listed as owning his home and being a farmer. His parents' birthplaces are both Illinois which sounds right to me. Enumeration District 8-2, supervisor's dist 6, Sheet No.1 B
Yes, that is the Harvey pictured above. You'll also find him on the 1920 US Census for Grangeville Idaho indexed as Harvey R Morss. About his birth record: Idaho County Free Press has an announcement (issue dated 23rd June 1893) of a son born to A F Nurss on 9th of June 1893; WWI Draft record indicates he was born in Grangeville, Idaho on 10th June 1892 (also mentions he has a wife and 2 children at the time); Family records indicate he was born 9 June 1893. We don't have a death date or place for him: last Grandma Bailey heard from him was on June 1, 1944 (he was in Washington DC at the time). His first wife was Hazel Andrews (married on the 4th March 1913 in Nez Perce, Idaho), they had two children: Leon Maxwell (pictured on this blog) and Alvera. Last record I could find of him was when he was in West Virginia
