This gentleman married an Ada Nora Collins b1882 in 1900 and they had 16 children including 3 sets of twins by 1924.

However, I can't find either of the parents' deaths.

Can anyone help please?

Yes it's Eli and Ada's deaths I'm looking for. That's Eli's death above and I've now found Ada Nora's under Norah Ada Hooper!

Thanks everyone!
