| About | Son of Earl Bruce Hawthorne and Ruth E Allen Hawthorne per his Jefferson County birth record. His DOB was recorded as June 9, 1946 at the Jefferson County Hospital in Fairfield. His Fairfield Ledger obituary stated he was born on June 6, 1946, so that may have been a result of incorrect information supplied by the funeral home. Note: Earl Bruce Hawthorne died in a one-vehicle accident near Grinnell, Iowa on Thursday, November 16, 1995 per his obituary. However, his headstone was engraved with a DOD of November 17, 1995. The November 16th date was used explicity in his Fairfield Ledger obituary, and also is found on his SSDI record. Will use the November 17, 1995 DOD as engraved for this memorial but with that caution. -------------- Fairfield (Ia.)
