    Notes 

    • [From Joyce:]
      Dennis Oscar Booth, told her that his uncle Joseph Nelson Booth was burned up in the Spencer Natural Gas Compresser Station explosion.. She said he talked about it every time they drove past there. Wish we could get a month and day, just have the year. I am sure when it happened there would have been a big story in the newspaper.
