Oklahoma death look up please George Walter Anderson

[poppy16]

I am trying to find the death certificate for George Walter Anderson born in 1893, Salford, Manchester U.K.

I think he died in Elk City, Beckham County, Oklahoma in 1931 when he was 38 years old.

He was a famous football player in the UK who played for Manchester United Football Club from 1911-1918.  He was involved in the biggest match fixing scandal of its time - the 1915 match between Manchester United and Liverpool.  After he left Manchester United he was involved in a betting scam and was sent to prison sometime around 1918 and was released about 1919. 

I think he emigrated in either 1919 or 1920 to USA, but I cannot find any records.

I would be very grateful if anyone has any information, thanks.

Dear Karen

I have waited so long for this moment and am in tears as I read your message. I have searched the world to find the answers as to why George emigrated and died.  I must work out if and how, I can send you a personal message so I can get my email address to you. 

George's sister, Elizabeth Elsie Anderson (known as Elsie) was married to Albert Robinson. They were my great grandparents.  Albert 's brother's and sisters were George, William, Samuel, Harriet, Thomas and Maria.

Elsie and Albert's daughter, Lilian Robinson was my grandmother.  So Maria must've been her auntie.  Maria married Harry Martin didn't she?   My mum remembers her mum (Lilian Robinson) talking about Maria and Harry and the greengrocers.  Wasn't Harry a professional boxer?  I found an old picture on a website of the greengrocers with 4 people stood outside, but not sure who they were.  Did Harry's dad die when he was quite young?   I will try and work out how to get my email address to you, but thank you so much for replying.  I can't wait to see Mary Alice Boardman!
