Notes: We have little information on Marcia Marvin Wolling. However, her brother Spencer Walling was found in the 1930 US census, Spencer Walling was 34, living in St. Louis, Missouri (name incorrectly reported as Walling Spencer) with wife Marjorie and son Spencer Walling, age 6. He listed his birthplace as Brazil, and year of immigration to the US as 1904.

This is evidence of the year that the James William Wolling/Walling family may have returned to USA from their missionary work in Brazil.
