James H. (or W.) WITHERSPOON was the only son of John and Mabel (MCBRIDE) WITHERSPOON. The vitals that I have are from Social Security Death Records (SS# 356-01-2891) of a person which seem to fit what little information is known about him. This record gives his DOB as Christmas Eve, 1911. However, Rock Island County has no birth record for him?. Betty Livengood says his spouse’s name was Elaine and she had two daughters (Betty Jean and Joyce), but was not sure if there were other children. The 1920 census for the family gives the age of James = 8; middle initial = W; living in Blue Island, Calumet Twp. in Cook Co., IL, with parents; attending school. The 1930 census shows James was still living with his parents in Blue Island at age 18; single; clerk in broker’s office; never in military. His trail ends here., ,
