 Another name for Andy was Roy A. Thorlton.1
General Notes:
Although his birth location is given as Alliance, Box Butte County, Nebraska, Box Butte County did not exist in 1885 in the state of Nebraska. It was not founded until 1887.
Records indicate that his birth name was Andy Leroy but it appears that he preferred to use the name of Roy A. Thorlton most of his adult life.

Noted events in his life were:
• He has alternate birth date of 1891 and a birth location of Nebraska.

Marriage Notes:
The US Census of 1920 indicates that their marriage had to take place prior to 1920 because Wilma was enumerated as Wilma Thorlton and was living back home with her mother at the time. I'm still looking to find out where the husband was in 1920.
