He came to Lorenzo in 1890 with his parents and had never married. He had done ranch work all his life and lived in Montana, the past 20 years at Alder and Dillon. He had been in the rest home for about six weeks.

He is survived by the following brothers and sister, Elmer France, Twin Falls; S. Main France, Shelley; Mrs. Pearl Smith, Portland, Ore.; Mrs. Dora Gillman, Oklahoma City; and MRs. Sylvia Nield, Salt Lake City.

Obviously, the obit says 15 Apr 1957 but the headstone says 09 Mar 1957. Unknown reason why.
