The draft registration does not mean that he was drafted. He had to register for the draft, but he may not have served in the military.
There is an Edward of the right age living in San Francisco in the 1930 census, with a corresponding newspaper death notice in 1939. https://www.newspapers.com/article/the-peninsula-times-tribune/124585992/
He is a roomer in 1930, in the household of Elizabeth Cooley. By 1939, he had apparently married Elizabeth, as she is listed as his widow. https://www.familysearch.org/ark:/61903/1:1:XC6T-2QP

Thanks for the info , have a few thing that are not correct though .
He´s name should be Edmund , not Edward .
He was married to he´s swedish wife Anna ( Annie ) , not single .
I have to look into this a little more ..
Regards Lars

Edmund and Edward are often used interchangeably, along with Edwin.
