May went by MAY NOLAND from the time of her marriage in Sonora, CA, 1907, until sometime after 1930, when she got remarried to an unknown man, so I do not know her name at time of death and cannot request a death record. May's mother was FANNIE LOUISE DONALDSON, who later married Thomas J. Stone. Although I found info on Fannie's parents and Fannie's death in 1925 in Oakland, CA, I have been unable to find any record of Fannie's marriage, if there was one, to a Mr. Stone, so far. I am still VERY MUCH interested in obtaining any info on May's birth father. Perhaps her death record would help.
