Comments

I originally identified #013695 as Lee Heishman. It is not Lee Heishman. It is his brother, Jesse Rollings Heishman (my grandfather). He was the son of John William (1855-1923) and Victoria Virginia (Combs) (1853-1938) Heishman.

Jesse was married to Elizabeth Nettie Jenkins (1920-1970) (Heishman).

They had two daughters: Joyce Marie Heishman and Betty Ruth Heishman.

Jesse and Elizabeth are buried in Woodstock.
