I don't know if this is the right Cross. I will give you the info
I know about him.
Claude (Blondie) Cross. Was the Buckroo Boss for the
Gerlach Land & Livestock Co, Gerlach, Nevada. When
Ed. Waltz was the owner.
He was a business owner in Gerlach for many years, also was
the Washoe county Road Boss in the Gerlach area for a number
of years.
I attended his funeral, but I can't remember the year, he was
buryed in Egaleville, Modoc county, California, in Surprise
Valley. His wife Vera is buryed there also. They had
one daughter, Cleo Cross, don't know her married name, but last time I saw her she was
living in Lovelock, Pershing county,
Nevada.
Believe Blondie was buryed in the late 50's or early 60's.
Modoc County seat is Alturis, California. North of Susanville,Ca.
Now if this is the Cross you are looking for. As I have heard of
another Claude Cross in Reno, but don't know him.
Good Luck
