Robert was also on 1930 Gove Co. census while Alta had divorced Robert and can be found in San Diego, CA 1930 census. I haven't been able to find Robert or Alta as a Dewey on the 1900 census. They married ca 1903 going by census. Robert Schnase is on the 1880 Saline Co., NE census living with his parents Carl and Albertine. No luck finding them from 1880 til found Robert in Gove Co., KS census on 1910. Again any help really really appreciated. Carolyn
