I have personal correspondence that said Thomas E. Watts died in Santa Clara and was cremated. She listed his wife as Mae.
I found Thomas Watts in 1920 and 1930 census records in Santa Clara. Wife was Mary A.
17 March 2012.
Found census 1910 Census record in New Mexico with
* Thomas E Watts, head, born 1870 in Illinois
* Mary A. Watts, wife, born 1870 in Maine
* Curtis Berry, stepson to head, born in Maine
* Luella Watts, sister to head, born in Illinois, born 1887
In the 1920 and 1930 Census records for Thomas E. Watts in Fremont, Santa Clara, his birth is 1870 in Indiana. Mary A Watts' birth is 1867 in Maine.
Found Mary A. Watts on California Death Index,
born 6/17/1867; mother: Millett; father: Craig, born: Maine; died Santa Clara, 8/13/1850
California Death Index for Thomas E. Watts
Thomas Elbert Watts, born 9/23/1870 in Indiana; father: Watts; died in Santa Clara, 4/21/1941
CONCLUSION:
I have found the correct Thomas E. Watts, son of William Watts and Lucinda Appleton.
* The names, birth dates, birth places all match
* 1910 census indicates Luella is his sister; same age as Luella who is daughter of William and Lucinda in the 1900 census.
