NOTES: Ray Graves Parker's birth year is listed as "1904" on the 1910, 1920, 1930, 1940 US Census, and it's the same on his marriage affidavitt, for his only legal marriage to Mary Celestine Gittins, as well as it is on the Social Security Death Index Record (this record gives his full "correct" birth date "23 May 1904"). The only record that gives a different birth date is his death certificate, "30 Aug 1902", which is wrong, his "5th wife", Elizabeth Steinberg, was the informant on his death certificate.
