Classification: Query
I apologize if what information I present from the census is something you already had; but I didn't. I always start from scratch...if needed, so I can expand.

She was the daughter of Leonard N. Lanning and Pheoba Jane Andrews. (This info was compiled by an Audrey Rozanoff. Other information was found from a family tree owned by a Lowell S. Thomas, seadragon5@aol.com Since the info identifies Edna Lillian Warren, this person might be so related. I can't identify if this is a current email address, last update was Sept 2007).

--------------------Allen A. Warren

Velma I, age 23, born in WA to father born in Kansas, mother in Missouri

Roff, Vincent C, brother-in-law, age 21
Anna M, sister, age 18. born in WA to father born in Kansas, mother in Missouri
--based on birth of parents, Anna was sister to Velma.

--In the Washington State Archives: http://www.digitalarchives.wa.gov/Index.aspx
is a marriage certificate for a Dwayne L. Warren, marriage to Loretta G. Sargent, both from Litchfield, California. The marriage was in Walla Walla on 10 June 1954. Witnesses Joseph Roff and Shawn J. Roff

--There is a Dwayne L. Warren, born 12 April 1928, died 26 January 1996. His Social Security Number, 534-20-2972 was issued in Washington. His "last residence" was Mesa, Maricopa, Arizona.
- In the Social Security Death Index, it lists persons that have died whose deaths are reported to the Social Security Administration. The "last residence" is not necessarily were a final benefit check had gone. It could be the address where the Death Benefit was sent, today about $255.00, to a spouse or other person that paid for burial, funeral home/Attorney/etc. It also could be just from a notification of their death. It is not necessarily where they died, it "usually is; but it is NOT a exact address identifier.
---However, the Maricopa County Recorder identifies several recorded documents under the name of Dwayne L. Warren. Documents at THIS county are on a BUY system. MANY around the country offer Free viewing of PUBLIC RECORDS. FIGHT to keep these public records FREE and AVAILABLE.

----From the WA Death Certificates: Allen Keith Warren, died 27 July 1926 at age 1 year 9 months and 6 days. He was son to Allen Warren and Velma Johnson.

So, enough for this search. For those Washington Deaths that I identified:
The Washington State Library has a free research service, the ask-a-librarian program, where they will look for information in the archives, in this case the newspaper microfilm for an event, such as an obituary. They will look up to an hour and send you the results. Contact them at: http://www.secstate.wa.gov/library/ask.aspx .
