I want to know what happened to a Cemetery called Dunbar Memorial Park. Ruben Hall was buried there. He died March 12, 1950 at the age of 56. He had a wife named Nola Hall Possible maiden name Cox. They had a two year old daughter on the 1920 census. I would appreciate any help. Ruben was the son of Samuel Thomas Hall. Rubin was born in Bath County Ky. Will share my info. Would love to find and living descendants.

I am trying to locate where and when my great-uncle, John R. Morris (b. March 4, 1874) died. He worked as a gauger in the oil fields, and was in Clendennin, WV in 1945 and in Queen Shoals, WV before that. He was born and raised in Washington Co., OH and was the son of Joseph Morris (1841-1903) and Ann M. Price (1844-1928).
