Family/Spouse: Charles Lee Roberts. Charles was born on 15 Oct 1893 in Mulberry, Mo; died on 23 Aug 1976 in Ft. Collins, Co. [Group Sheet] [Family Chart]

Notes:

Name, date of birth and death from photocopies of pages from Bible in posession
of Larry Roberts in file. Assumption of State of birth by compiler. The first
Bible entry for Narval's birth is shown as 1 Jun 1896 along with date of death.
There appears to be an attempt to correct the year of birth in a later entry
into the Bible as 1886. Since Dee Lee was born on 2 Dec 1886 it is unlikely
that Norval could have been born on 1 Jun 1886, so the original year of birth
has been used.

Notes:

Name, date of birth and death from photocopies of pages from Bible in posession
of Larry Roberts in file. Assumption of State of birth by compiler. The first
entry in the Bible of this birth was listed as Joe John 7 May 1890. This year
of birth was later crossed out and 1900 (or so it appears) is inserted. The
original entry also indicates Joe John as the youngest son. A subsequent and
apparent correcting entry indicates name as Joseph and year of birth as 1900.
The original year of birth shown as 1890 is obviously in error since another
son, Howard, born 19 Feb 1890, would have been born about three months prior.
Due to these factors the compiler has retained the name as Joseph and the birth
at 7 May 1900 since the later Bible entry is persuasive.

Notes:

Source is obit. from Glenn Huffman. Member of Crabbottom Presby. Church.
Includes husbands name, year of death; survived by daughters Nancy and Mary,
and a son, James.
