Comments
When you look at the death record log line #12, it shows that John W. Duty and Victoria Johnson were his parents and that Victoria and a person by the last name of Vaughn reported that he died from syphilis and general infection in Yolyn, Logan Co. WV. Am going to look a few more places to see what I can find. Will Let you know.
Lawson and Louise same person.
