Mary Constance WATTERSON
Set As Default Person -
Name Mary Constance WATTERSON Relationship 
with Teresa Ann GOATHAM Born Abt 1888 California, USA
- From the 1920 census where shown as aged 31
I am assuming her surname was the same as that of her unmarried sister with whom she was sharing a house in 1930.
Gender Female Residence 1930 236, East Avenue 42, Los Angeles, Los Angeles Co., California, USA
- Sharing a home with her unmarried sister Elsie Watterson at the time of the census.
Occupation 1930 Book keeping in office - From the census
Died - Thomas and this Mary were not together by the time of the 1930 census; this Mary was shown as married, but Thomas appears to be with a new wife, Mary A.
It would therefore be unsafe to assume that the description of Thomas in the 1940 census as widowed implies that she had died by then.

(Age 69 years)
Other Partners: Anna DePutron LINN m. 11 Oct 1900; Mary A. m. Between 1920 and 1930Married 1 Feb 1916 Los Angeles Co., California, USA
- The 1920 census shows that Mary was by then married to Thomas and was then aged 31, and the 1930 census shows that her age at first marriage was 27.
Thomas and Mary appear to have separated by 1930, as Mary was then living with a sister and Thomas was not recorded as living at the address, but Mary was recorded as 'married'.
