Today I prematurely "dumped"
the file I had on Robert C Brown. So, I did some more
nosing around at the Ancestry.com website.
As regards Robert C Brown of
Hannibal, MO. I was two years ago that a couple
of St Louis area listings were checked to no avail. In
addition, I think someone told me that his middle name
was "Connie". Also I think that I may have been advised
that his wife's name was Shirley.
Today while searching the Social
Security Death Index (SSDI) listings at Ancestry.com, I
found two Missouri connections.
1) Robert
C. Brown; SSN: 494-32-2580...issued in Missouri before
1951; Born: 10 May 1933; Died: 26 Apr 1991.
2) Robert C.
Brown; SSN: 494-34-7550..issued in Missouri before 1951;
Born 31 Dec 1933; Died 15 May 1997;
Last Residence:
77387 Spring, Montgomery, Texas.
I also checked the
Ancestry.com/Obituary Collection. This link offered a
potential lead.....

I called the above
number. During the course of our conversation, Shirley
told me that her husband died in May 1991
of colon cancer…in Biloxi. She acknowledged that he was
in OCS-58B….and asked about the Sheffields,
Robert Fields, and especially John and Joyce Rulon.
I told her what I saw on your website. including the
fact that John Rulon was deceased.
I did some more
SSDI searching and found the data on John. Via MyFamily
I also located his widow Joyce in Oklahoma City.
I re-called Shirley Brown and provided her with Joyce's
number.
And
this, KIND SIRS, is the last chapter in my OCS-58B
notebook.
