I find that Fred Hampton's wife, Mary, indicates she's a "widow" on 1920 census with 3 sons, age 18, 16 & 14, so presume Fred died...unless there was a divorce and she didn't say so. I've heard sometimes women said they were "widows" instead of being divorced. I'll do some more checking to see if I can find any death records for a Fred Hampton, somewhere. Are divorce records usually published or are they something that would have to be checked thru civil court actions, etc. @ the court house?
