George Elmer Haley Death Certificate, 1949, Morrow County, Ohio

"Ohio Deaths, 1908-1953," database with images, FamilySearch(https://familysearch.org/ark:/61903/1:1:X61Y-1VC : 8 December 2014), George Elmer Haley, 15 Nov 1949; citing , reference certificate; FHL microfilm 2,247,102.

Located the death certificate of George Elmer Haley (1863-1949) at FamilySearch.  George died of a cerebral hemorrhage while living at the Har-Vel Rest Home in Mt. Gilead, Morrow County, Ohio on November 15, 1949.  George was widowed at the time.

According to his death certificate, George was born August 22, 1863 in Marion County, Ohio and his occupation was a retired lawyer.  His parents were William Wesley Haley and Jane E. Owen.  He had not served in the Armed Forces.

George was buried on November 18, 1949 in the Claridon Cemetery in Claridon, Ohio.  

The informant who signed the death certificate appears to be M.C. Haley, which I am presuming was George's brother, Merrick C. Haley (1875-1951).

George E. Haley household, 1940, Marion County, Ohio

At the time of enumeration, George and his wife were living on a farm in Claridon Township, Marion County, Ohio.  He owned his home and the value was $3500.  George was 76 years old and born in Ohio.  His wife, Elizabeth, was also 76 years old and born in Ohio. Their residence in 1935 was listed as the same place.

The record shows that both had completed the 8th grade in education and no occupation was listed.  However, other records I have for George indicate that he was an attorney, so I'm not sure why it only listed an 8th grade education.

In my database, George was the son of William Wesley Haley and Jane Elizabeth Owen. He died November 15, 1949 at Mt. Gilead, Morrow County, Ohio and was buried in the Claridon Cemetery in Marion County, Ohio.  Wife Elizabeth's maiden name was Devore.  

If you have additional information or are connected to this family, I would love to hear from you.
