DEATH INFO ON MARVIN THOMS RECTOR:

NOTE: Marvin's Texas Death Certificate and Census records all show he was born in 1901 (versus 1900 which is printed on the headstone - so there is a discrepancy in birth year - I have recorded 1901 on this memorial title due to all other records showing he was born in 1901 (versus 1900)- Perhaps the headstone was not engraved until 2000 when his wife Virgina Mae Rector died and the headstone may not have the right birth year for Marvin Thomas Rector who died much earlier in 1947.
