1 person found this helpfulMr. Hoop,
Thank you for posting your question on History Hub!
A search of records available from our partners at Ancestry has returned a record of the reporting of the death of a child for Rene and wife Julia. Be aware that this record is a state level record obtained from the Michigan Department of Community Health, Division for Vital Records and Health Statistics, Lansing, Michigan, and is not within the holdings of the National Archives.
It may be possible to use the information on this record to further search census records for the address listed on the death record.
All extant copies of the census through 1940 is available digitized and online at FamilySearch.org, a free service which is accessible anywhere.

We hope this is helpful. Best of luck with your family research!
