    Notes:

    Following is a more detailed obit for Bryant Turner than I had seen to
    date. Some points to consider:

    (1) This obit reinforces the notion that his wife Elma had been
    previously married to a Mr. Trivette. This sheds doubt on the notion
    that Trivette was Elma's maiden name (Kristina had reported that she
    was the daughter of Thomas Trivette).

    (2) It gives the date of death as 4 Apr -- we had 5 Apr from earlier
    sources.

    (3) Note that daughter Frances is married to Hoover. We had her as
    Frances Wentz. Either this is incorrect, or Hoover was an earlier
    marriage.
