In 1935 they were in Doylestown, Bucks, Pennsylvania. It looks from the above as if Russell was adopted. The following is copied from findagrave.com: Edward was born to George Washington Rosenberger (1858-1912) and Isabelle Frances Cullers (1854-1918) in Strasburg, Virginia. Both of his parents were also born in Virginia. His father owned a farm in Strasburg and Edward's early life was farm work. On Oct. 2, 1920, Edward married Evelyn Gertrude Minter of Philadelphia. Edward and Evelyn had a son, Russell Edward Rosenberger (b. 1924), who also lived in the Norristown area most of his life. Soon after being married, Edward purchased his own farm in Doylestown, Pennsylvania. The 1930 Census shows Edward's sister, Nellie, also listed as living with the family on this farm. Sometime after 1935, the family moved to Norristown. Edward took a job with Norristown Production Credit Association, and by 1940 had a management position with the company. Edward and his wife continued to live the rest of their lives in Norristown. His wife passed away in 1958. Edward survived his wife by 23 years, passing away at the age of 90, in the year 1981.
