Notes

Note 1

!Source: Death Certificate [7934], Obituary, and family records.

!Notes: One reference showed the place of his marriage to Agnes Woolery as Cottonwood Falls, Kansas on 15 Aug 1914. Another shows it as 15 Aug 1914 in Springfield, Sangamon County, Illinois. Another shows Cottonwood Falls on 21 Aug 1913.

Source:It would appear that the 1914 date is correct in Cottonwood falls, as the Chase County, Kansas
