Jack, I suspect the death date by Bev was simply a typo on Bev's part.  From the Ancestry U.S. Social Security DeathIndex: | | Name: | Clyde Lovelace | | | SSN: | 409-09-2499 | | Last Residence: | 37643 Elizabethton, Carter, Tennessee, USA | | BORN: | 16 Mar 1916 | | Died: | May 1973 | | State (Year) SSN issued: | Tennessee (Before 1951) | | Greg AdamsChattanooga TN  From: Jack D. Lovelace via <[email protected]> To: [email protected] Sent: Sunday, November 30, 2014 4:30 PM Subject: [LL] Find-A-Grave Memorial Page for Clyde H. Lovelace (1916-1943) I was looking at the Find-A-Grave memorial page for Clyde H. Lovelace, created by a woman named Bev back on 23 Apr 2005.  Memorial number: 10842039. The death date is entered as 1943. Then, in the bio section, she has the entry Clyde H. Lovelace, March 16, 1916 - March 21, 1943. The legend on the tombstone has: Clyde H. Lovelace    Mar. 16, 1916    May 21, 1973. Sadly, Bev is no longer with us, so I can not ask her about the discrepancy, so I am asking the list.  Is the 1943 date correct? or is the 1973 date correct? I am unable to locate a death certificate for Clyde on Ancestry. Clyde is the son of Herman and Allie (Ellis) Lovelace. Herman is the son of Harrison H. and Mary Catherine (Hardin) Lovelace. Harrison is the son of William and Martha Ann (Jenkins) Lovelace. William is the son of Thomas J. and Mary (Parker) Lovelace. Thomas is the son of John and Ann (Laws) Lovelace. John is the son of Charles and Bridgett (McLaughlin) Lovelace. Jack D. Lovelace
