13) Now that we know that Cecil died in California, chances are greater that perhaps his wife also did.  We know that she was born about 1892 in Iowa, and her name might have been Laura or Clara maybe with an M initial.  So let's see.  [http://search.ancestry.com/cgi-bin/sse.dll?indiv=1&rank=0&f1=Laura&f2=&f0=East&sx=&f4Day=&f4Month=&f4Year=&f6=&f5Day=&f5Month=&f5Year=&f7=&f10=&f9=&f3=&f8=&prox=1&f4=++&f5=++&db=cadeath1940&ti=0&ti.si=0&gss=angs-d&pcat=34&fh=2&recid=2054733&recoff=1+2+14 This entry] in the ''California Death Index'', 1940-97 shows : "Laura Mildred East, born 5 Apr 1890 Iowa, died 29 May 1958 Los Angeles County, father's name Hanson"
 
13) Now that we know that Cecil died in California, chances are greater that perhaps his wife also did.  We know that she was born about 1892 in Iowa, and her name might have been Laura or Clara maybe with an M initial.  So let's see.  [http://search.ancestry.com/cgi-bin/sse.dll?indiv=1&rank=0&f1=Laura&f2=&f0=East&sx=&f4Day=&f4Month=&f4Year=&f6=&f5Day=&f5Month=&f5Year=&f7=&f10=&f9=&f3=&f8=&prox=1&f4=++&f5=++&db=cadeath1940&ti=0&ti.si=0&gss=angs-d&pcat=34&fh=2&recid=2054733&recoff=1+2+14 This entry] in the ''California Death Index'', 1940-97 shows : "Laura Mildred East, born 5 Apr 1890 Iowa, died 29 May 1958 Los Angeles County, father's name Hanson"

14) Using the above step as a 'basis for a guess', let's see if we can find any of the children of Cecil and Laura 'also' in the California death index.  We know from the census already that they had : Dorothy 1913, Gerald 1917, Barbara 1920, and Mildred 1923/4.  So in the CADI, we just enter surname East, and mother's maiden name Hanson, and 'nothing else'.  And we get a hit. [http://search.ancestry.com/cgi-bin/sse.dll?indiv=1&rank=0&f1=&f2=&f0=East&sx=&f4Day=&f4Month=&f4Year=&f6=&f5Day=&f5Month=&f5Year=&f7=&f10=&f9=Hanson&f3=&f8=&prox=1&f4=++&f5=++&db=cadeath1940&ti=0&ti.si=0&gss=angs-d&pcat=34&fh=0&recid=3576569&recoff=15+46 This entry] states : "Barbara Jean Irvin, born 1 Jul 1919 Nebraska, died 13 Nov 1986 Los Angeles County, father East, mother Hanson"

We know this is their daughter Barbara based on the parents names, and that she was born in Nebraska which is relatively rare.  So we have a hit and have evidence showing Laura's maiden name.
