bullet  General Notes:


Records for Vernon are difficult to find anytime after 1920. There is one census record for him in Oklahoma with a surname spelling of Creese in 1940 showing him married to a "Frankie". The Linn family records show him married to Hazel Lanone Gorfey in 1949 in Stillwater, Oklahoma. The SSDI shows his last residence near Detroit, Michigan before his death in 1972. I can find no other information between 1949 and 1972.
