*************************
Find-a-Grave posting states Amos C. Lee (1855-1918) is buried in Perth Cemetery along with
Martha & Bert C. Lee. What is interesting is Martha's dates are (1867-1912) but
she is obviously living thru the 1920 census, which makes me think the date was
transposed, maybe should read 1867-1921. Would explain why she doesn't show up in
1930 also. I hope this helps..................Karen
