In your listing of KC deaths for May 1919 you listed a William S. WILLIAMS 91. Would you please look and see if a son by the name of Edgar Louis WILLIAMS b-1866 is listed? I'm grasping at straws here, Edgar & his wife Nancy Elizabeth (LIZZIE)(JENKINS) WILLIAMS had a lot of their children in Farley, Platte Co. MO.. I don't know the names of his parents or siblings. Would appreciate any assistance! I'm really hoping to climb this brick wall!!!!! V. Calvin
