Dorse Lee SAGRAVES

1929 - 1991  (62 years)

• Name	Dorse Lee SAGRAVES
  	The surname presented for this person as with each other in this study is based on the dominant spelling found in the various records researched, but primarily on the name carved on the person's gravestone. EXCEPT for the common variations of the Seagraves family name of which there are over 20, such as Segraves, Seagreaves, Seagroves, etc. For clarity and ease of analysis all those variations have been given the Seagraves name. Certain variations are used so consistently within a family that they have been retained in this analysis, specifically, SAGRAVES and SEAGRAVE. The Seagraves version is the most common found (about 39%) of all on the 1940 census. A discussion of the name spelling variations can be found on the Home Page of this website.
  Birth	3 Aug 1929	Pike County, Ohio
  	US Social Security Applications & Claims Index gives the birth date of Dorse Lee Sagraves as 3 Aug 1928, however, Ohio Deaths, 1908-1932, 1938-2007 shows 3 Aug 1929 as does his listing on the US Public Records Index, Vol 1. His gravestone on Findagrave.com says he was born in 1929 and his age on the 1930 census is given as 8 months which implies an August 1929 birth. All considered, without a specific birth record, I believe the 3 Aug 1929 date is most likely correct. Besides, the Ohio Birth Index, 1908-1964, shows the birth of a "Jack" Sagraves to a Brice Sagraves on 3 Aug 1929. I believe that this Jack was the original name given for Dorse at his birth.
