Possible match:

• • 1: He and Joella were living in Catoosa, Rogers, Oklahoma in 1940.
  • 2: There is a burial at the Catoosa, Rogers, Oklahoma cemetery holding his name as well as one for Joella.
  • 3The gravestone states he was a Pvt in WWI (Find A Grave Memorial# 6044655)
  • There is a corresponding registration card however, the birth year is off by 4 years.

  • The registration card lists he is Single.
  • The 1920 Census has him as married and his oldest listed child is 11.

If the dates are just an error and these are the same William P Fugate, does this mean he was single between 1917-1918 when he enlisted and then remarried by 1920?
