    Robert's birth location taken from the birth certificate of his 5th daughter, Janet Maxine Whaley. But her actual certificate with the correct birth date, correct birth location and parents, correct even as to the number of living children to this mother, gives the child's name incorrectly as Mary Lee Whaley. The reason for the discrepancy is unknown.

    Sherry has the handwritten records kept by her family members. She sent me (Janie) images of those records. But no locations given.

    The date of death on this site is correct but not the location of Siloam Springs death. S. Nelson says he died in an accident in Shamrock.
