#141 Roy Everett "Everett" Deffler ( Charles Edward DefflerAlmira Jane "Ellen" ShockeyEdward ShockeyLevi ShockeyChristian ShockeyJohann Christoph Schäcke )

Everett was born 6 Jan 1915 in Pennsylvania. He died 19 Mar 1977 in Los Angeles, Los Angeles Co., California. He was buried in Grand View Memorial Park, Glendale, Los Angeles Co., California.

The family all knew him as Everett. Later records seem to indicate that he started using his first name at some point after 1942.

On the 1920 census of Burrell, Pennsylvania and the 1930 census of Derry, Pennsylvania he is listed as Everett R. Deffler.

On the 1940 census we find him in Hillsborough County Jail, Tampa City, Hillsborough Co., Florida. His non-incarcerated place of residence is given as Waco, Hawaii.

He enlisted in the U.S. Army on 24 Jun 1942 at Greensburg, Pennsylvania. He was 5'7" and 141 pounds. At the time of enlistment he had completed two years of high school.

Various newspapers of 15-16 Sep 1942 noted that Everett was charged by a Federal grand jury:

Everett R. Deffler of Derry charge with impersonating unlawfully a true and lawful holder of U.S. savings bonds amounting to $1,025. Deffler was charged with writing a letter April 24 to the Federal Reserve Bank at Philadelphia attempting to transfer bonds which Kenneth Dale Moore, of Derry R.D. 1, had certified payable upon his death to Marjorie Stouffer. Deffler said in the letter he was the husband of Marjorie Stouffer.

This is probably his first cousin, Marjorie. Everett ended up spending time in prison. Kenneth Moore was Marjorie's fiancé and a corporal in the Army.

From 1947-1949 he was in Washington (see the article below) working for Nash Motors.

In 1953 he transferred with Nash to Chicago.

City directories put Everett (as Roy hereafter) and Florence in San Antonio, Texas in 1955, still with Nash.

In 1960 they were in La Puente, California. Florence is listed without Everett, in 1961 in La Puente and in 1964 in El Monte, California. Everett is working at a Rambler dealership in 1964. Nash had acquired Hudson Motor Car Company and formed American Motors Corporation in 1954. Rambler was the upscale line for Nash and then AMC.

In 1957 he was a service manager with Henry Koopman & Sons, Inc. in Whittier, California.

Everett married and divorced first #142 Jean Edith Jones.
