Roy Dodd and Mary Elizabeth White

[Kandi Burns]

ok then thankyou sue

[Jamjar]

Yes, Sue the wives names have been sent earlier. They are not in the cemetery with that Bruce.

Would you say that the middle initial for wife 2 is a K?

Jamjar

[sparrett]

Yes. I have suggested by PM to Kandi that the hand-written RAN record has made an error and yes, the middle initial is intended as K and the R should be omitted from the first given name too.

Kandi, do you have the death cert for that Bruce?

I’m wondering how you know he is the correct one?

Looking at other articles its hard to see what her real name was, as she used multiple aliases, but she used the name *** for her marriage to Dodd.

Amazing article indeed!
Although it would be difficult to locate her death. I wonder if we are assuming she is deceased and thus publishing her name. I just feel proceeding with caution in the matter might be wise.

ADDING. And of course the same applies to the next "wife"
