In 1930, Harriet was living with her daughter, LaDell, in Detroit, MI. This was one year after the death of her husband; it was likely that she was unable to support herself.

Unfortunately, they were in a serious car accident in AR and Harriet was left in a coma for the rest of her life. Charles and Edna home-nursed her for several years until her death.

Notes for Charles Roy Swett:
Charles remembered African-American servants who assisted in his childcare. Also, as a child he remembered his sisters doting over him. Another childhood memory was vacationing in Biloxi, MS, a popular gulf port vacationing area.
In Charles's late teens, he left MS with a friend to find work in MI. A few years later, Charles and his friend went to Canada to join the Canadian Army in WWI. After the war, he returned to the Detroit area where he spent most of the remainder of his life. He was a union carpenter and primarily worked construction.
The 1920 census records list Charles as being married to Minnie E. Swett. However, there is no other documentation to support this marriage and his sons were unaware of a first marriage. The record showed Minnie as being born in 1900 in Wymondham, Norfolk, England and immigrating to the U.S. in 1907. Robert Daggatt, a boarder of Charles and Minnie's, also was born in Wymondham, Norfolk, England and immigrated to the U.S. in the same year as Minnie. It is possible that Robert and Minnie were siblings.
Charles and Edna had a few rocky years early in their marriage (the years between Charles Jr.'s and Earl's birth). She and her son, Charles Jr. moved to Ohio to live with her mother during their separation. It seems that Charles was quite the gambler and pawned Edna's wedding ring to get gambling funds. After reforming from gambling, he bought Edna a replacement wedding ring, which had a turquoise stone. These rocky years are documented in telegrams sent by Charles to Edna.
During the depression, Charles LeRoy moved the family to Houston, TX, where his sister, Doris, lived. They stayed with Doris for a couple of months until Charles found work. He set up a cabinet shop near Doris's home and would go door to door selling small corner cabinets. Later, they lived in a small shack with wooden boxes for furniture. In 1933, the family traveled from TX back to MI; the trip took six months. They drove an old Diana (the Diana Automobile Company produced cars between 1925 -1928), pulling a trailer with all their earthly belongings. Charles Jr. was seven and Earl was an infant. Charles Jr. recalled Earl being in a bassinet at night when they camped under the stars. It was a six months trip because they had to stop to make money for gas, milk, food, and car parts. Charles Jr. remembered his dad wrapping the tires with metal baling twine on the old Diana to prevent blowouts. Early automobile tires would fail often because of the rough roads; often cars would be equipped with two or more spare tires.
Charles rented homes and never owned property. He was fearful of the banks taking it like they did during the Great Depression with so many homes. He did not trust the banks for his savings either; he hid money in the walls covered by wallpaper and buried it in his back yard in glass jars. Unfortunately, when he died, the family could not search for any money since his house was rented.
Charles had an affinity for Studebaker automobiles. At his death, he owned several.
Charles died of prostate cancer.

Notes for Rev. Charles Roy Swett Jr.:
Charles had chronic asthma. It was so severe that his doctor warned him that he would die if he did not get off his farm. So he sold the farm and eventually found work in the auto industry. Unfortunately, asthma attacks became progressively more debilitating; so his doctor recommended that he move out of the state of MI. He moved to TX, where his asthma symptoms subsided to the point he no longer needed medication.
