It would centainly add to the facts if I had his marriage record. So far as the probate records with Wm's and Rueben's name listed, that threw me for a loop. Rueben spent time in WA state before heading to Alberta, CA where he died in 1947. Am really glad to know that these records exist. Will try to get ahold of them. Thanks again. Sincerely, Sylvia Ammons
