There were several Warren Tanners. The census would have stated the relationship between Wesley Bullard and Warren Tanner. If you would like for me to do so, the next time I go to the library, I can look in the death certificate index to find the date and place of death. Knowing that, you could look for an obituary, or obtain a copy of his death certificate. Clyde

Clyde, Thanks so much for the kind offer. I would truly appreciate your help if you get the opportunity to look this up. I received my information from Rachel Caves who kindly helped me out because before she took the trouble to find this for me, my GGrandfather was a complete brick wall. I have not actually seen the census information for myself so don't know what is stated about Warren Tanner or the relationship between the two. I keep hoping to get the time to get up to Douglas to do some research, but can never seem to get a break to do so. Thanks again, Christy (in Florida) Clyde Hooks wrote: > > "C.
