New scorecard
My daughter Diana called me late this morning. She was losing the thread of who was who. So, for those of you trying to follow all this family information --
Stanley Leroy Newton (April 28, 1919-11/29/1989) and Joan Adair McDaniel (November 15, 1921-January 18, 1983) married and had two children - Judith Adair (May 1940) and ME - Nancie Ann (September 1944).
Stanley was the only child of Jesse Roy Newton (January 21, 1889 - April 11, 1953) and Julia June Auble (1892-198?).
Captain Walter H. Auble (1861-1908) was Julia's father. Florence Andrews was Julia's mother. Julia had a sister Gladys and a brother Earl.
For more information about Jesse and his family look at the Newton Family Tree, a book written by Annie Oldham.
Stanley and Joan divorced (1946) and Stanley married Lena who already had daughter Diane, divorced her and married Margaret (1958). They had one child, Catherine Elisabeth Newton (September 1959). They were divorced. Stanley married Selma.
Stanley died from complications (embolism) during prostate cancer surgery. Joan died at home of colon cancer which she had from 1976-1983.
Joan was born Jean Adair McDaniel, but legally had her name changed to Joan when she married Stanley. My birth certificate has Joan listed as the mother.
Joan was the only child of Lester Leona Sinnott (July 1904 - September 1971) and Fred P McDaniel. They were divorced and Leona married John, divorced and married John, divorced and married Frank Plummer (d.1968?). Leona had many sisters and brothers. She was the last of 14 children with her mother, Margaret Ann Burke Sennott, dying after giving birth to her (December 4, 1863 - July 23, 1904, St. Josphet's Cemetery in Escambia County Florida) . Leona's father was William J. Sennott, September 17, 1863 to March 15, 1922.
Leona had a sister Alberta who lived in Los Angeles and another sister Catherine who lived somewhere in the midwest. Leona died of a heart attack while hanging laundry in her backyard. She had had a previous heart attack at age 39 and suffered from arteriosclerosis. She smoked and ate a high cholesterol diet everyday of her life.
Joan married Stanley in 1939 and divorced him in 1946. She married Harvey Joseph Cantin in 1948 and had two daughters - Jan Paige (1948) and Cynthia Lee (1952).
So I have two sisters that I share a father with and I have two other sisters that I share my mother with. I have only one sister that I share both a mother and a father with (Judy).
Father died of cancer-related problems. Mother died of cancer. My greataunt Catherine had colon cancer. And here is the cancer-gallbladder thing among the sisters --
Judy - both gallbladder removed and early hysterectomy (heavy bleeding), later diagnosed with stage IIIA(?) endometrial cancer, most surgically removed May 2005, radiation therapy.
Nancie - gallbladder removed in June 1998 and late hysterectomy for stage IIB endometrial cancer in December 2004, radiation therapy.
Jan - free and clear (as far as I know)
Cindy - both gallbladder removed and early hysterectomy (heavy bleeding) to remove stage IA endometrial cancer in 199?.
Cathy - early hysterectomy (heavy bleeding) and stage ?? renal cancer tumor removed 2004, gallbladder removed 2005.
(note early and late refer to pre and post age 45).
I am thinking this is a typical 20th century family - blended and with a lot of smoking, drinking, sex and cancer.

Julia's Father on-line info
I found these on-line references to the 1908 death of a Captain Walter H. Auble of Los Angles, aged 47.
He was married to Florence Andrews in 1888. At the time of his death he had daughters Julia, aged 16, and Gladys aged 14, and a son Earl, aged 18.
His mother was living in Savannah, Mo with her son Nathan. Captain Auble also had brothers William (a conductor for Southern Pacific) and Frank (a plumber living at 8th and Los Angeles streets) and a sister, Mrs. William Lillibridge of Rochester, Mo.
He was killed by a 'socialist' burglar who subsequently took poison to avoid hanging.

And here is a reference to the Los Angeles Police Department history site --
http://www.lapdonline.org/history_of_the_lapd/content_basic_view/1108
I am thinking that there must have been some sort of widows and orphans benefit that Florence received so that she could start the boarding house and could send Julia to Mills College.
Now we know the name of the sister she lived in old age with -- Gladys. And an uncle Earl Auble.
There is reference to Captain Walter being a member of the Westgate Masonic Temple (335) and Temple Al Malaikah Shrine. He was also a member of the Maccabees, tent No. 2 of Los Angeles.
Here is a photographic reference to Earl Auble, his son, as a Marshall for the Westgate Masonic Lodge in 1931.

Stan (my father) also was a mason -- 32nd degree (whatever that meant?).
