Individual Details
Floris May Comstock
(3 Apr 1891 - 18 Jul 1976)
Married Nov 28, 1910 to Omar Gatewood in Camden, Ouachita Co AR. He was age 31, she was 19. Both lived in Huttig, Union Co.
I have not been able to find this couple in a census although the Comstock books states they were living in Pottersville, MO in 1945. [Probably Howell Co]
FamilySearch found them in 1930 - his first name was Henry.
