Name: John Eston Porter
Father: E C Porter
Birth: 3 Sep 1911 - Georgia
Death: May 1950 - Cleveland
Residence: Cleveland, North CarolinaWww@QuestionHome@Com

A copy of his death certificate can be found at:
http://content!.ancestry!.com/iexec/!?htx=V!.!.!.

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=V!.!.!.

I'll check a little further!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

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!.Www@QuestionHome@Com
