↑ If his brother Lawrence was born in Dec 1888 (as one gravestone indicates), it seems likely that Lee Roy was born in 1887 as stated in the 1900 census and "lost" a year or two as he grew older. On the other hand, if his brother Lawrence was born in Nov 1889 (as another gravestone indicates), Lee Roy might have been born in 1888 as stated in his war draft registration.
