MARIS, Elmer

Source: THREE GREAT ladies and wonderful genealogists saved many old obituaries and put them into a binder – they let me use them for the GenWeb page – thanks so much to Fauniel Hershberger; Claudine Yerkes and Betty Dotson (my adopted 2nd mom – loved that lady) – these were mostly mid 1940s deaths but no dates or newspapers are noted.

Elmer Maris, 65, died at his home at Veedersburg late Wednesday afternoon.  He had been suffering from a heart ailment for the past 10 days.  Mr. Maris was born near Marshall July 24, 1879, the son James and Philema Swain Maris; and was married to Lizzie Davis Dec 24, 1902.  He and Mrs. Maris moved to Veedersburg 36 years ago and was for many years associated with the Davies Oil Company here.  Survivors in addition to the widow are one brother, Fred Maris, Covington; a sister, Mrs. Susie Titus, Leavenworth, Wash and several nieces and nephews. – kbz
