Biography

Chester Clarence Root was born on 14 October 1913 in Ashtabula, Ashtabula Co., OH, WW II draft card. He married Ethel Jessica on 25 December 1941 in Orange or Los Angeles Co., CA,

; Chester and Ethel were listed in a "Marriage Licenses -- Intentions to Wed" article in the 23 DEC 1941 Anaheim Bulletin, page 7. This article names her "Jessica E. D'Arnee, 48, Gardenia." (Newspapers.com). The California marriage record named her Jessica Ethel D'Arnie, but does not list the county.

Ethel was first married to Frank Gowan, date unknown, and divorced 29 NOV 1909 at Grand Rapids, MI, per the Chautauqua County, NY, marriage license application and record No. 2019 dated 1 DEC 1909, with the groom, John George Knobloch (1887-1946). Ceremony location was Ripley, NY., and officiant was Rev. Merrill Miller. (Ancestry.com). She apparently was the mother of Charles G. Knobloch, 1912-1980, a Lt. Cdr., U.S. Navy. Neither his California Death Index record, nor his obituary provides his mother's maiden name. This marriage with John Knobloch was apparently over by 1936 when she was listed as Jessica Root in the Long Beach, California city directory, at the same address as Chester, and certainly before 8 April 1940, when Ethel was listed as Ethel Root, living with Chester Root at Los Angeles, CA, and listed her as his mother (!). Six months later, on his WW II draft registration, she was listed as Ethel Jessica Knobloch, "Friend", at the same address as his. John Knobloch also remarried in 1941, to Mabel Clare (Travis) Cummins.

Chester and Ethel were living at 850 Nancy Street, Barstow, CA in 1948, where they are listed as members of the St. Cecelia Guild of the Episcopal Church, and at the meeting described in the article, were committed to host a buffet supper at the next meeting (May 13, 1948). Desert Dispatch, Thursday, 15 APR 1948, page 13 (Newspapers.com).

On Ancestry.com, the Williams-Garcia Family Tree genealogy prepared by IsabelElena lists the mother of Charles George Knobloch as Jessica E. Blaine. This name cannot be found at Grand Rapids in the applicable time frame.

Here is a marriage of an Ethel to a Frank Gowan:

Oakland Tribune, Oakland, California; Saturday, 11 JUL 1903, page 7 (Newspapers.com):

MARRIAGE LICENSES.

The following marriage licenses were issued today by the County Clerk.

Frank V. Gowan, San Francisco ...............21

.

But this Ethel was born in California, per her1900 census listing, and died at San Francisco in 1948, with the California Death Index showing her maiden name and mother's maiden name. She was not the wife of Chester C. Root.

He died on 28 October 1983. He was buried in 1983 in Root Family Cemetery, 63 Dutch Hill Road, Warren Co., PA,

; per Pennsylvania Veterans Burial Cards, 1777-2012 (Ancestry.com).

Chester Clarence Root lived in 1940 in San Pedro, Los Angeles Co., CA. He began military service on 22 August 1942 WW II service, U.S. Navy, discharged 11 SEP 1945
