Individual Details
Clarence Winfield FURR
(August 21, 1923 - March 9, 1967)
Speculation by Glovenia (Glo) Snead email, glosnead@aol.com, December 3, 2021: "When Clarence Furr and Mable divorced in 1929, his name is written as Clarence Winfield Furr, Sr. This would indicate there was a Clarence Winfield Furr, Jr. The divorce said there was 1 child, without naming the child. This must have been Jr. Along with this, Debra [Nasdor, Glo's 2nd or 3rd cousin] said her mother said her father was either adopted or was a foster child. I believe he was a foster child, being the 6 yr old you found on the 1930 census."
