(23 - NC/NC/NC) Daughtrey living with their children Elizabeth R. (1 5/12 - VA) and Margarette L. (0/12 - VA). John is a farmer. Also in the household is sister-in-law Cora White (20 - NC/NC/NC).

The 1920 Federal Census for the Town of Franklin, Southampton Co., Virgnia, District 213, records the widower John O. Daughtrey (32) with his sister Lydia Daughtrey (39), his widowed mother Cornelia Daughtrey (65), and his brother Braxton R. Daughtrey (27) and his children Elizabeth (11), Margaret (9), and Helen (8) living at 704 High Street. John is listed as an Oil Agent.

The 1930 Federal Census for the Town of Franklin, Southampton Co., Virgnia, District 22, taken April 16, 1930 records John O. H. Daughtrey (44 - VA/VA/VA) [indexed as Daughtery at ancestry.com] with wife Grace (44 - NC/NC/NC) and children Margaret (20 - VA), Pope (7 - VA), and John A. (4 9/12 - VA). John is employed as an Insurance Agent. Also living in the household is his widowed mother-in-law Adelaid Pope (70 - NC/NC/NC).

The 1940 Federal Census for the Town of Franklin, Southampton Co., Virgnia, District 88-16, page 206A, dated April 14, 1940 records John Daughtrey (55) with wife Grace D. (55) and children Pope (17) and John A. (14). [Pope is "ab"] John is a Drayman for a Transfer Company. John has completed 1 year of high school, Grace has completed 2, Pope has completed 4 and John A. 1 year of high school. Also in the household are 2 lodgers. Interesting that as of April 1, 1935 all Daughtreys report they were living in the same house; however, the county and state of that location is listed as Isle of Wight for the dad, Haifax Co., NC for Grace, and Southampton for the kids. This is most likely a reference to their location of birth.
