Notes for Paul William Prather
The Kentucky birth index lists Payl Pratcher, born 28 Sep 1911 in Rowan Co., mother’s maiden name Annie Alfrey.

The SSDI lists Paul Prather, born 28 Sep 1911, died 7 Dec 1991, SSN issued in Washington before 1951.
Notes for Lorraine Evelyn Anderson
The SSDI lists Lorraine E. Prather, born 5 Mar 1911, died 29 Dec 2002, last residence Seattle, King Co., Washington.

(What’s strange is that there is another Lorraine E. Prather, born 21 Mar 1912, who died 31 Oct 2004 in San Jose, California. I wouldn’t have thought it would be that common a name.)
