    The Arkansas Death Index confirms the date of death as porovided by Bertie Lois Dumond McSwain (his daughter) from family records. It does not reeporet the birth place, but we know it was in Arkansas, and likely Arkansas County, like most of the family.  The Index provides only the year of birth, while Bertie has provided the full date.  Bertie tells us he died in the home at Ethel.
