Floyd LeMASTERS and wife Shirley Opal (GAGLE), as well as son Floyd D. and wife Nevada J., and one unidentified LeMasters are buried in the Salamonia Cemetery, Madison Township, Jay County, Indiana.

Floyd was born February 2, 1894 in Jay County, Indiana, the son of Luman Cooper and Barbara Isabel (WEHRLY) LeMASTERS.

Opal was born September 12, 1895, the daughter of James and Myrtle (FREEMEYER) GAGLE.

Floyd and Opal were married October 9, 1913. They had two children: Remonda and Floyd.  Floyd was adopted.

Floyd D. LeMASTERS was born March 24, 1923 and died August 15, 1972.  He married Nevada Jane McKINLEY, born 1922, died 2001.

I do not know yet how the Edythe G. LeMASTERS (1907-1929) fits into the family.
