Biography

Last name is misspelled on death certificate as Raborn and father is incorrectly given as Dave Peldeny. She was 23 when she passed away.

According to my notes, Flora (b. 1907 d. 1930) had a daughter Aulene born 08/04/1928?. Her brother Curtis is buried in Hamilton approx 1989. She married Melvin Rayburn. My notes say Hackleburg is in Franklin Cty but it may be in Marion Cty.

Flora Yielding-53 married Melvin Rayburn on Dec 7, 1922. I believe they had a child, Levi Melvin Rayburn-227 that married my Aunt Mary Eva Cockrum. However, on Mary's marriage license it states that the parents of her husband are L.M. Raburn and Millie Jane Kennedy.
