Hi Dave,
Harold Richard Varner - born Nov. 10, 1908, Diligent River and died Feb. 5, 1979, Springhill. Buried at Hillside Cemetery.
Eva Grace Embree - born 1910, Westchester and died April 24, 1979, Springhill. Buried at Hillside Cemetery.
Harold had no siblings. His father and my great-grandfather (George Thulbert "Fred" Varner) were brothers.
Hope this helps.
Tracey
