Notes for Orville W. Short
The Kentucky birth index lists Orville W. Short, born 6 June 1911 in Wolfe Co., mother’s maiden name Marcella Whitt. It is a delayed certificate, filed in 1942. The index also lists Alexander Short, born 12 June 1911 in Wolfe Co., mother’s maiden name Angelie Short. The latter is not delayed. I believe it is the same birth, with Orville not being yet named at the time his birth was recorded, and “Angelie” being a mistranscription of Arzelie. Births of unnamed children are always indexed under the father’s given name. Most likely Orville filed for a revised certificate in order to get his name on it for official records.

The SSDI lists Orville Short, born 6 June 1911, died Mar 1974, last residence Winchester, Randolph Co., Indiana, SSN issued in Ohio before 1951.
