Debias Staley

Debias was a police officer in Detroit during the 1911 era. No
official confirmation as yet. He disappeared about 1919 when my
Grandmother was 14.
Description: It is believed that Debias was born in St. Thomas Elgin
General Hospital, but there is no proof. His family did live in
Malahide, Elgin County south of London, Ontario so this would make
sense. Malahide is a township that was named after Malahide Castle in
Dublin County, Ireland. Jamie Dickey

Ida Staley
(9.Peter2, 1.Rebecca1) was born on 16 Dec 1879 in Yarmouth Twp, Elgin County, Ontario; died on 28 Sep 1958. Notes:
Description: I understand Ida was married three times. Her second marriage was to Philip McIntosh about 1919.
She was living with Philip at Minnesota at the time of the 1920 and 1930 census:
In 1920 living at Ward 7, Minneapolis, Hennepin, Minnesota, age 41, with her second husband Philip McIntosh 52, widowed mother Barbara Staley 73, and nephew Gordon Staley 4 yrs 10m.
Her mother died at Minneapolis, Hennepin, Minnesota on 25 Jun 1921. She was living with Ida (McIntosh) at the time she died, and the death certificate says she had lived for three years at the place she died.
In 1930 living at Minneapolis, Hennepin, Minnesota, age 50, with her second husband Phillip Mc Intosh 61, Barber, and nephew George G. Staley 15. Her first marriage was at age 23, i.e. in 1902 to Delos Willis. His first marriage was at age 50, i.e. in c.1919.
I also understand that her third husband John McIntosh was Philip's brother.
