The grave marker more precisely shows: "BELOVED MOTHER ELNORA C. ROPER SEPT. 21, 1923 SEPT 9 1999" * * * * * The Social Security Death Index shows this Elnora ROPER (b 21 Sep 1923, d 09 Sep 1999) as having Social Security Number 456-44-2440. * * * Based upon the location in the cemetery and the marriage record of a Payton ROPER to an Elnora CRANFORD, this seems likely to be the widow of Payton ROPER Jr. discussed in my previous post: "Payton ROPER, Jr (b 07 May 1913, d 20 Jun 1986)" (23 Aug 2014 5:22PM GMT) http://boards.rootsweb.com/surnames.roper/1941.1/mb.ashx * * * This seems likely to be the Elnore H. CRANFORD enumerated in the 1930 U.S. Census at age 6 residing in Cleveland, Miller County, Arkansas, within the household of Jack and Mamie CRANFORD.
