Notes for Joseph F. Purvis
His death certificate is somewhat unusual in that it was filled out once by hand, and then modified later with typed amendments. (Filing revisions is fairly commonplace, but generally they just file a second certificate with the modified information, stamped as a Duplicate, rather than writing over the original form.) I will put the typed amendments in parentheses.
