SSW: Arthur M. - Research Note: Alta was a daughter of George Goodnight and Elizabeth McCoy. Her husband was Arthur Mack Frost. The cause of her death was occlusion, coronary, instant death. Jack Frost's note: When confirming my birth-death dates for Alta F. (Goodnight) Frost, the wife of Arthur Mack Frost, I pulled up Alta's Official Missouri Death Certificate on the Missouri Digital Heritage site. I noticed an entry error that had been made when filling out the original document for the birth date of deceased: (August 7, 1948 was shown). The Date of death of the deceased is shown to be September 24, 1948. All hand written signatures are documented with a September 1948 date. I believe the birth date should have been August 7, 1875. Once again, I've said all that to say this: On the MoBarry Cemetery site for Oakhill, you have posted a photo of the grave marker for Alta and Arthur M. Frost. Alta's dates were 1875-1948. There is also some biographical data in which her birth and death dates are shown. I believe the Death Certificate error has caused a mixup in some of the dates shown on the MoBarry site for Oakhill. I believe the birth date of Alta should be: August 7, 1875; and the death date should be; September 24, 1948. My reasoning is, all the signatures on the Death Certificate were dated late September 1948, so I feel that the entry error was in birth year only. The death date shown on the Oakhill site could not have been an August date, so I think the day and month dates should be swapped. - October 2, 1913, Thursday, Cassville Republican - Mrs. T. S.
