In 1900, Alvin was a superintendent of parks in Brooklyn. By 1910, he and family had relocated to Portland, Oregon, where he worked as secretary for a dry-cleaning company. According to the 1920 Census of Brooklyn, Louise and Virginia had returned from Oregon to Brooklyn, where they were living with Louise's mother. As yet, we have no record of Alvin's death, or whether he had returned to Brooklyn from Oregon, as well. Louise was a widow when she died, so Alvin would have died before 1971.
