The Scocial Security Death Index says a Ray Otis DUNBAR died in Willoughby, Lake Co, Ohio on November 19, 1989. I am trying to find out if he is the son of Arthur and Minnie DUNBAR. Arthur and Minnie were married in Cortland, New York in 1890 and all of their children were born in Homer, New York. They moved to Akron and then to Cleveland. Arthur and Minnie died in Cleveland, 6 days apart in 1943. The Ray Otis DUNBAR that was born in Homer, New York and the one who died in Willoughby have the same birth date, but I need to be sure. I thank anyone who could help in this matter.
