Roll Halley

1877 - 1912  (35 years)

  	Some sources give his birth year as 1878. I think this has to do with rounding errors associated with subtracting age from census years.

  Marriage	20 Oct 1906	Greenville, Darke, Ohio, USA   [4]
  	This marriage apparently didn't last very long. When Roll died six years later in 1912 there is no mention in either obituary that I read of a wife as either predeceasing or surviving him. She seems quickly forgotten. I've now discovered that she lived until 1957, and is buried in different cemetery from Roll.
