Notes:   In the 1940 U.S. census, Hosea, 32, and Torma, 25, were living at 690 North 8th Street, Colton, San Bernardino, California.  They were renting for $15.00 per month.  Hosea was a bookeeper in the cement industry, and had earned $700. the prior year.  He had completed three years of college.  Torma had completed one year of college.  Their daughter Joan was one year old.

The 1940 City Directories differ slighty, listing the family at 691 North 8th Street, Colton, and listing Hosea as a beekeeper, which was an occupation shared by his brother Reed.

By 1944, Hosea and Tormas are listed in the City Directories as living at 676 Olive, Yuba City, California.  This was their residence until their divorce about 1954.  Hosea worked first for the Coca Cola Bottling Company in Marysville, then for the Pepsi Cola Bottling Company in Yuba City.  The City Directories list his rise from salesman to foreman, plant manager, and supervisor.
