Nina Cruickshank  BORN: 1878 approximate  DIED:

In 1910, Nina (age 32) is listed in the census as "Crookshank". She was  born in Virginia, her father was born in North Carolina, and her mother was born in Virginia. In 1910, Nina had been married for 10 years and had three children. Also living in the home were Anna B.(Belle) (age 9), Harvey S.(age 8), and Jeanette (age 3). The family is living on Kingston Pike.

In 1920, Nina (age 42) is listed in the census with last name spelled "Crookshank". She is living in the home with her husband, Samuel (age 47), and her two girls, Belle (19) and Jeanette (13). Samuel is working as a driver, Nina is a housewife, and Belle is a college student. The family is living on Concord Pike.

In 1940, Nina and Samuel are living on Concord St. and their name is spelled "Crookshank." Her age is given as 56 in this census, which differs from the 1910 and 1920 census. Also in the home is daughter, Jeanette Baker (33) daughter, Lyman Baker (34) son-in-law, Lyman Baker (10) and Hearl Baker (8). The last name Baker is a census erro. The last name is actually Bacon.

The genealogy of Mrs. Cruickshank is difficult to follow due to the inability of the census takers to document the last name correctly. This is also seen in the 1940 census where Jeanette and Lyman Bacon's names are incorrectly listed as Baker.
