    1. Death of James Hockney

    3. My cousin obtained the death certificate of James B. Hockney who died March 20, 1917 of "severe and extensive burns from waist down caught from forest fire." Is there a source in Marion County, such as the historical society or library, which might have access to a newspaper account of this fire or an obituary for James Hockney? James Hockney was probably living with his daughter and son-in-law Watson and Lydia Carr. We do not know when they moved to Florida (although it was after 1910) or why. They had lived previously in Wisconsin after immigrating from England about 1890.
