I didn't find any newspaper articles about why he was in jail in the 1940 census. I believe this is his WWI Service Card.
His spouse might have been a lady named Cora. This is all I could find in my researching him.
I would like to know if the War had something to do with his decision for committing crimes or was it a problem finding a job?
