• Notes

  Archelus R. Flowers appears in the 1930 census of Spartanburg Co., SC which indicates his age to be 51 and shows that he was 21 when first married. His wife, Sallie, is 25 and was 20 years old when first married. This record proves that Archelus was married twice and he was either divorced or his first wife had passed away. The children from his first marriage were not in his household in 1930. The death index for the Spartanburg Herald Journal, available electronically at the website of the Spartanburg County Library, shows an obituary for A. R. Flowers, age 50, husband of Sally Flowers on 1 Jan 1935, page 2.
