Individual Details
Curley Cornelius Hoffpauir
(31 Mar 1896 - 30 Dec 1961)
Hazel Irene Frost states: "I met him only once shortly before he died, although I corresponded with him for several years. He lived in New York from the time he finished college, until he died. He was a graduate of Texas A & M and Duke University Law School. When my mother graduated high school, she traveled to New York City and attended college there while living with my uncle, his wife Rose, and their daughter, Gloria. He indicated to me through his letters that he had divorced Rose and remarried and was divorced again by the time I was corresponding with him. He talked about having at least one son (whom he called Johnny), but may have had more children."

Notes
Birth-Alternate
Curley's son, Jack Hoffpauir, recalled that his father told him he lied about his age in order to enlist in the navy.... so many records show his birth as 1894, but his actually birth date was 1896.Endnotes
