In 1910, the family lived at 33 Ridgewood Terrace in Maplewood, New Jersey, in a 2400 sq.ft. house built in 1908 (per Zillow.com). They had their first two children, Paul, age 6, and Frank, age 5, as well as Granny Sherratt living with them.

In the 1920 Census, the family lived at 38 Curtiss Place in Maplewood (nearly back-to-back with the Ridgewood Terrace house), in a 3350 sq.ft. house built in 1904 (per Zillow.com). All four children are there, ages 15 down to 4, and Granny Sherratt is there too.

In the 1930 Census, the family lived at 178 Kent Place Blvd, in Summit, NJ. The youngest three children, ages 24 down to 15, are with them, though the oldest, Paul, has moved out. There is also a servant listed. Granny Sherratt does not appear in the listing, though she was still alive.

In the 1940 census, Frank Sr was living with Frank Jr and family on Laurel Ave, New Providence, NJ, while Elizabeth was living with son Paul and his family in Little Falls, NJ.

In the mid 1940s, Elizabeth was told she needed to get someplace warmer and drier for her health, but they could not travel during the war. After the war, they traveled by train to Prescott, AZ, where they lived a number of years. But in their last years, they moved to Seattle to be near their sons Frank and Don. They both died in Seattle and are buried in Renton, WA. (Per grandson Bruce Taylor.)
