Louis Albert Thornton was the oldest surviving child of George Mason Dallas Thornton Sr. (born Browning, Schuyler County, Illinois) and Polly Ann Luttrell. His parents married on 11 Sep 1871 in Schuyler County, Illinois. Although his death certificate indicates he was born in March 1871, I believe it was actually in 1872 which is supported by the 1880 Browning, Schuyler County, Illinois census.
His wife, Nora Emeline Robinett preceded Louis in death on 26 June 1944 and shares a stone. State of Missouri Death Certificate #14257 dated 17 April 1947 states Louis was born on 4 May 1871 in Browning, Illinois and died on 9 Mar 1947; however, the headstone gives the birth date as 4 May 1874 as does the 1900 Miller County, Missouri Census. The 1880 Browning, Schuyler County, Illinois Census shows "Lewis" as 8 years old.
State of Missouri Death Certificate states that he was buried in Rodden Cemetery which is also known as the Robinett Cemetery. The informant on the death certificate was Delorie Godfrey. Lewis/Louis died at the age of 75 years, 10 months, 5 days.
