Misc. Notes
He is more generally listed as Walter E. Larsen, but some records are under Larson.
He is listed as Walter Larson in 1900, with his parents Christian Larson (Mar 1844, NOR) and Anna Carlson (Sep 1860, NOR) married 19 yrs. It shows his birth as Jun 1892, which is also listed in the SSDI and WWII draft registration. However his WWI draft registration lists his birth in 1891, as does the Calif Death Index.
Still with his parents in Oakland in 1910.
Apparently first married to Dollie Marie Jackson Larsen (1885 - 1956) before he was remarried to Eva, most likely after Dollie’s death.
