Register of Births..Defiance County, OhioDewey Donald Law #110  Vol 8 p.11  Found in index..
(under sec. 1261-57) which I didn't locate in research...

Interviewd in my home 10-10-90.  He again told me the story of the special experience he had after his father died. He appeared to him, all dressed in white, about three days after he had died.  Uncle Dewey cried like a baby when he related the story.

MARRIED: "At Esther's sister's home, Art & Ivy Macintyre,  152 Windemere, Highland Park, Michigan.  The house is gone.... now it is a freeway."

1991....Living in Las Vegas, NV   spring 1991 with my father, Theodore T. Law...Sun City...He again related the story of his father's appearance after his death and cried.  Bless his sweet soul, he is so tenderhearted about that event in his life.  He suffered  so much when his father died and he longed to know where he was and that is why I'm sure Heavenly Father allowed him that manifestation.

Old letter in Hulbert Notebook dated July 8, 1969 from Beulah and Wayne Hulbert, RFD #2, Hicksville,Ohio 43526 to Eleanor Law Johnson.....
"As a child I remember hearing of Jason Law.  You know he was a stump blower...dynamite sticks were used.  He met his death by the unexpected explosion and as I remember, he was blown to bits.  Then Dewey Law stayed at Mary Johnson's (note:  I believe this is Mary Farnsworth Johnson that was a sister of Ellen Maria Farnsworth, which would be Dewey's great, aunt) and went to school with me at six corners one winter.  I was Beulah McCollough then.  Really enjoyed him.  Often have wondered about him, where he went."
