But the real difference, and I'm guessing the reason these rounds (six
of then) wouldn't load is that the necks were bigger; fatter.
4 or 5 thousanths? Could that make such a difference?

Something to keep in mind is that the 30-30 case can be resized and
used as a 32 Special case. If your late father-in-law happened to have
a 32 Special around be very careful...

Here is a forum entry with some discussion on this:

Thanks Leon.
I'm learning - rapidly!

One of these four odd rounds was marked 32-20.
The others were marked 30-30.

And yes, he had a large collection of firearms.

I somehow managed to get home with 20 round of .45-70.
Wish I knew what those were for...
