HTML Editor's notes:

The name SALLIE MELVIN is in all capitals, but there is no
head-of-family entry for this particular SALLIE MELVIN.

DAVID JAMES MELVIN was the father of Edice Carlton Melvin,
born 1 Sept. 1895, died 16 Feb. 1972.  This material has been
provided by Edice Carlton Melvin, Jr., but the HTML Editor has
not finished incorporating it into the on-line Family Book.

The date 1959 seems to be a century off.

Variant word list:
Word searches conducted by computer may produce disappointing
results.  Therefore, for each page, there will be a list like
this of names with middle names omitted, maiden names and married
names used, hyphenated words reconstructed, etc.  Perhaps this
strategy will help those people who are conducting searches on
the Internet find who they are looking for on this page.
