Bingo - that newspaper obituary gives you the proof that Shelton Crosthwait was indeed the brother of Thomas Crosthwait.
Hey!  You converted your question to a comment just as I was commenting and my comment disappeared.
Sorry!
And tells you when Thomas was born.

That's what I said in my comment that disappeared!  laugh

Yes, thanks Marion.  It was just clipped by kpforbes1 a couple of minutes ago.  That handle seems suspiciously close to some person named Kathy (Parkes) Forbes.  ;-)
