Jack was working as a mechanic by the time of his marriage and living in Flint, MI. At that time, Grace was working as a telephone operator. The 1930 census records the couple living with Grace's parents in Flint, and Jack works as a machinist in an auto factory. Grace is a "marceller," a specialty hairdresser who makes marcels, which are soft waves in the hair made with a curling iron. By 1940, their two sons, Jackie and Charlie, have been born. Jack works as a press operator in an auto factory; Grace is at home caring for their young boy, ages 7 and 6. They live at 4401 Huggins Street and lived there also in 1935.
Jack had died before the next federal census; his mother named "cancer" as the cause - it was likely colon cancer. He is buried near his father, who had died of cancer in 1940, and his sister Margaret, who had died of encephalitis in 1925. In 1950, Grace remarried, to Amos B. Burge (1906-1982).
