This is a follow-up to the obituary for Flossie Beatrice CEARLOCK REYNOLDS (1912 - 2008)
which can be found at the following sites:

Further research shows Flossie's mother to be Pansy Effie STURGEON (1894 - 1964),
daughter of Frank or James STURGEON and Martha M. MEEKER. Pansy married first Alberty
Herbert "Bert" CEARLOCK (1881 - 1962), 14 May 1911, Edinburg, Christian Co., IL;
second George W. PORTER (b. 1861 - 1862), 1913, Champaign Co., IL; and third Marion E.
COIT (b. 1870 - 1871), ca. 1914, probably IL.
Pansy can be found on the following censuses. Note that daughter Flossie Beatrice
CEARLOCK (1912 - 2008) is listed as Flossie B. COIT on the 1920 census. I have not yet
found this family on the 1930 census.
