  Notes	She was already Norma Chiodo in September of 1920, at which time she was a senior in high school. She was an eyewitness to her father killing her mother and aunt. She was “too ill to testify” but was able to give a deposition. By January of 1922, as a “pretty 18 year-old” and “a little slip of a girl” expecting a baby in March of 1922, she testified against her father “even if it sends my father to the gallows!” She may have had a daughter Jean, born in about 1922. An article in the San Pedro News-Pilot in August of 1923 referred to Mrs Norma Chiodo having a little daughter named Jean. An article mentioning the marriage license for “Mrs. Norma Chiodo of San Pedro” and Wright said that she had been a resident of San Pedro for a number of years and was prominent in San Pedro social circles. She was a former student at San Pedro High School where she was president of the Girls’ League in 1921. In the 1940 census, she and Jean live in Pasadena at 1987 Paloma Street, a home Norma owns that is worth $3500. This is the same place, but not the same house, that they lived in 1935. Norma, a widow, works as an escrow clerk at a bank. Jean, who only had three years of high school, is a “new worker” at a school cafeteria. The California Voter Registration has her still living at 1987 Paloma, as Mrs. Norma I Wright, in 1948. Kaninen has her living in Las Vegas in April of 1984. Norma was in Las Vegas, as Norma Anthis, as early as 1954.
