Thank you for the information! I have been checking Ancestry  and found 
census records from 1920 and 1930 that were helpful - even though one of 
those had everyone spelled Gomez but all the other names matched...lol.

I have messages out to family that hopefully have some of the vital records 
documents in their files.

Thanks again!
Caroline
