Her obituary states that her husband Charles preceeded her in death by about 15 years, yet I have found him on census, marriage, birth and death records up until 1941 when he did indeed die. I am quite certain that these records do in fact pertain to the same Charles Fraser in question here. The records state that he was born in Cleveland, Ohio, that his father's name is Elen L. Fraser, born in New York, and that he (Charles) is a painter by trade. I believe that the similarities of these facts as well as some others not mentioned are too great to be dismissed as mere coincidence.
