  	Middle name is given as "Jayhue" in the affidavit of Neoma Shuster, midwife attending his birth, in Rhoda's pension file.
  Born	2 Dec 1892  [1]
  	Subsequent affidavit from Rhoda J. (Walker) Lacource later states that she had remembered and stated his birth wrong, actually was 9 August 1885, and his brother Ira J. actually 2 December 1891--both a year younger than previously stated. Possibly for pension advantages?
