    My mother, Lou Ila Gregory Jenkins, tells me that Thomas died in a traffic accident in later life.  The Marlow Cemetery register records the information on his grave.  Thomas died in 1956, at the age of 40.

    Leroy is likely related to the Tugmans that are kin to the Gregory family reported in this genealogy.  But the link has not been confirmed.  Several Tugmons are buried in the Duncan cemetery.  There is one J T L Roy Tugmon, that may be Leroy, buried in a joint grave with what would be his first wife Mollie G, who died in 1964.  Leroy (Roy) Tugmon married Josephine Dobkins Welch in 1968.

    The date of death on the gravestone for JTL Roy Tuigmon is July 26, 1980, while that reported in his wife Josephine's obituary is 26 July 1979.  Actually, this type of error is not unusual in gravestones, unfortunately.
