Biography

Nadine Sadie Hopper was born on 25 June 1917 in Blackwell, Kay Co., OK.1 She married Tom Rand McCowen, son of Charles McCowen and Emma Catherine Henry, after 11 May 1940, Tom and Nadine Hasselvander were living together when the 1940 census of Los Angeles was taken.2 Nadine Sadie Hopper died on 14 February 1994 in Lane Co., OR.

Nadine Sadie Hopper lived on 1 April 1935 in Oklahoma City, Oklahoma Co., OK.2 She lived on 12 May 1940 in 1427 South Burlington Avenue, Los Angeles, Los Angeles Co., CA.2

Note: According to the SS Applications and Claims Index, Nadine originally applied in JUN 1938 as Nadine Sadie Hopper, but her file was updated in DEC 1938 with her name as Nadine Hopper Hasselvander. She was still using Hasselvander as of 11 MAY 1940 but she was living with Tom Cowen on that date when the census was taken in Los Angeles. Her name was not updated to "Cowen" until FEB 1963, although she was married to Tom Cown by the time he completed his WW II draft registration, about 1941 (age 23). I don't find any other evidence of the Hasselvander marriage, or who he was. DLB 2021.
