I am trying to find the death certificate of my grandfather, Sanford B. kuykendall. He died in July, 1927 according to his headstone. He married Susan Mildred Campbell. Her headstone does not have the date of her death. She died while living in Rockdale, Texas on July 4, 1939. I am interested in finding out anything I can about his death. I have written the Ellis County Clerk, The Texas Health Department, Boze Cemetary. Also the Texas Death Index. No one seems to have anything about him in Ellis County. There is an S.B. Kuykendall listed in Cooke County, Texas; however, the date of death is January, 1937, ten years later than shown on his headstone. I desperately need the name of his father and mother. There seems to be a question about their names. I would love to also find an obit on him. Surely some funeral home has something on him. I know a lot of funerals were held in the homes back then. If he happened to really be the one from Cooke County, and Died in January, 1937; how did his body get back to Auburn? There are so many questions I know nothing about. I cannot remembe my mother, Flemie Ophelia Kuykendall, ever discussing her grandparents names. His family bible was filled out by a daughter, Sallie E. Kuykendall Brigman, but I do not know when. It states his death as July 8, 1927 also. Thank you, Bennie Allred
