1950 census, Enumeration district 31-69, (image 21 of 50), San
Benito, Cameron County, Texas listed family as follows:
Juan M Hernandez listed as head of household, age 41, born Mexico
Petra listed as wife, age 32, born Mexico
Ninfa listed as daughter, age 11, born Texas
Raul listed as son, age 10, born Texas
Per 1940 federal census, Juan Lived in San Benito, Cameron County, Texas
between 1935-1940. I believe the 1940 census is key to determining Juan's
parentage. Juan is listed as living in the rear of the same property and
residence of Emilio Hernandez, who is presumed to be the father of Juan.
This is corroborated by the 1930 federal census where Juan is listed as a
son of Emilio and Andrea Hernandez (Step-mother). He was listed as
age 23 which would place his birth at about 1907, in Mexico. Many
age descrepancies among the family exist, but I believe it is inherent in
some records; where many families of Mexican descent lived/traveled in
both the United States and Mexico. I believe some of this family may
have been split between Mexico and Texas during these 1930 and 1940
census timeframes.
Despite the many descrepancies, as for Juan Hernandez, the info indicated
above is my basis for listing Emilio as the father of Juan Hernandez.
Birth day Descepancy:
California Death records indicate Juan was born on 24 Jun 1908 in Mexico
and died 19 July 1971 in Santa Clara County, California. Social Security
indicates his birth day as 26 Jun 1908.
