I would like to find out something about Jonn Eston Porter. Born in G A?

Name: John Eston Porter

Father: E C Porter

Birth: 3 Sep 1911 - Georgia

Death: May 1950 - Cleveland

Residence: Cleveland, North Carolina

Do you know where his parents were born? And his death date?

His mother's name?

There are 9 John Porters of about the right age in the 1920 census in Georgia, but none with a father name Edmond.

A copy of his death certificate can be found at:

http://content.ancestry.com/iexec/?htx=View&r=an&d...

His father was Edmond Carl (or Carl Edmond) Porter.

He's in the 1920 census, living with his father and, what appears to be, a step-mother.

His mother was alive in 1918, when his father registered for the draft: http://content.ancestry.com/iexec/?htx=View&r=an&d...

I'll check a little further.
