Died
18 Feb 1931
in Farmington, Van Buren, Iowa, United States. [6]
Teddie Howard Steeples born Aug 24 1909 in Mt. Sterling, Iowa to William Steeples of Alexandria, Missouri and Cora Dust of Clark County, Missouri, died on 18 Feb 1931 in Farmington Township, Van Buren, Iowa. Cause ??? Burial at Chambersburg, Missouri on 20 Feb 1931
Note: I would like to find out what the cause of Teddie's early death was. I could not decipher the cause on the death certificate. The box for injury is not checked, so I am guessing he had some kind of disease. He also didn't have a profession, which also speaks for a disease or handicap?
