(Research):
On the 1930 Federal census, in Montgomery, Alabama, a 4 year old Joy McGlynn can be found in the home of Harold and Katherine McGlynn, both also natives of Alabama. Harold was in the business of wholesaling candy. Other children in the home were Harold P, age 9, Charles A, age 7, Donald, age 6, and Katherine, age 2. The same family can be found in 1940, still in Montgomery, with one new daughter, 7 year old Mignon. In 1940, Harold Sr and his namesake son were both listed as Government employees.
