He was stationed at the Coast Guard Base at Lock 11, Henderson, West Virginia. He was listed as single -- born 29 April 1927. Was 21 yrs 10 months and 6 days. For a copy of the death certificate log onto www.wvculture.org/vrr He was the son of Clarence Burton Myers and Lulu Bayes. His brother Darrell Myers of Peebles, Ohio, came to Point Pleasant to claim his brother's body. Perhaps there is someone at Adams County who would wish to have this information.
