My great great uncle Emeral A. Mays who was born in Texas in June 1891, died sometime
around 1950-1960, I am making a guess because my family can not remember, it was so long
ago. My mother remembers he was working in the casinos, she thinks in Reno. He never
married or had children (that we know of). One day someone in Nevada sent his wallet to
his brother in law (my great grandpa) in Texas. I am unsure if someone had called already
about his death or if there was a letter but my mother said the family knew he had passed
away. None of us know the exact date of his death or where he is buried. Is there anyone
that remembers him? Or can someone in Reno please see if he is listed in the death index
there? I would be so grateful. I would gladly do a Texas look up for you in return.
Thank you and God bless.
