      Death date in the handwritten ledger-style death record shows death date as May 7 1934 (based on an apparent erroneous ditto mark under previous entry), with burial date as Feb 16 1934, & filing date Feb 26. (Note: The corresponding death certificate on file at the WV Div of Vital Statistics confirms death date as Feb 16 1934. Headstone also reads Feb 16 1934, while husband's obit incorrectly states Feb 18 1934.)
