    Notes 
    • Shown on as born on June 24, 1900, on her death certificate.

      An Evelyn Christy married Nick Melino (MOMS calls him Melind) in Minneapolis on 6 Oct 1914.

      In the 1920 census, she is the 20 year-old Evelyn Melina, wife of Nick, mother of Boby and Doly. In that census, the family lives in Minneapolis. Nick had come to the U.S. in 1905. Included in the household in that 1920 census are two of Nick’s brothers, who also came to the U.S. in 1905, Martin and Ralph. Nick and his brothers worked as laborers.

      In the 1930 census, Evelyn was single and lived at a rooming house in Minneapolis. She had no occupation. If we combine the census entries for her and her son, it appears that she and Robert are living with Kenneth McKenzie, 28, Orpha McKenzie, 25, and Elma McKenzie, 7 months, among others, at 1816 Nicollet. One of those “others” was Raymond Jones, 34, a taxi driver.

      She and her husband lived at 993 Aldrich Avenue North at the time of her death.

      She died of a heart attack. Her death certicate noted that she was a General Hospital Clinic patient and that an “ambulance was called and found patient dead.”
