Griswold living in Philadelphia, PA.  He was 25 and working as an "attendant" at the U. S. Veteran's Bureau Hospital.  His birth place (as well as that of his mother) is listed as North Carolina, but his father's birth place is listed as Texas.  If this is our Carl Albert Griswold, I'm not sure why his father's birth is not listed as North Carolina.   1930 Philadelphia, Pennsylvania Census   Name Sex Race Age S M W Birth Occupation Industry Last First Person Father Mother Griswold Carl A.
