C." Yarbrough b: 14 Feb 1921, Scranton, Logan Co., AR, | d: Aug 1962, Olympia, WA THE BOOK (above) states Martha's maiden name to be Desho - It was actually Deshazo. I have this on an audio tape made by Cloid Wesley Yarbrough. ALSO - DOES ANYONE KNOW ANYTHING of D. C. Yarbrough above? I know he moved to Olympia, WA after WWII and had 6 boys and 1 girl. I do not know who he married. I ordered the Social Security information for him which states: At age 24, Discheo Clouid Yarbrough lived in Wright, AR when he applied for SS#. States he was born in Scranton, Logan County, Ark. Father, James C.(Cloid)Yarbrough and mother Emma Hughs. He was unemployed at the time, 10-19-1945. He wrote his name: D. C. Yarbrough. Even though the SS records say Discheo Clouid, I think his name was most likely, Deshazo Cloid, as Deshazo was his mother's maiden name and his father's middle name was Cloid. The 1957 obituary of his father, James Claude Yarborough states that "D. C." was living in Olympia, WA at that time. Also the SS Index showed that he died in Aug 1962, Olympia, WA. I would like to know more about his descendants. THERE ARE MANY GAPS IN MY RESEARCH OF THIS FAMILY, esp with the Weavers. I am told they lived around Scranton, Logan County, but that is all I know. Any help would be appreciated. Loeta (Yarbrough) Venable
