1930 Census
William W Colby is living on Spruce Head Island in South Thomaston, Knox, Maine with his two sons. He is 49, and was 33 at his first marriage. I believe the census image says he is married; it could say he is widowed. He owns his home; it is valued only at $300. William was born in Maine. His father was born in Maine; his mother in Massachusetts. He is a lobsterman. Son Kenneth is 16; son Ralph is 14. Neither has attended school in the last year.
