John Virgil Woodhurst was born at Monroe City in Monroe County, Missouri in 1891 to parents Robert Cook Woodhurst and his wife Ann Eliza Jane Slaughter [IGI: Batch 8429303]. The latter IGI record cites his birthdate as November 18th 1891, but the California Deaths Database cites it (apparently incorrectly) as September 18th 1891.
The US 1900 Census finds him at age 8 living with his parents in Salt River township, Ralls County in Missouri and gives his birthdate as November 1891.
He married Nora Cecil Hatfield on February 24th 1914 at Eugene, Lane County in Oregon [IGI: Batch 8429303]. Her middle name is rendered as "Cecel" in this and other sources, and it is uncertain which spelling is correct.
The California Deaths Database states that he died on February 26th 1959, having Social Security Number 564-05-1113, and that he had resided in Alameda County, California. His death does not seem to be recorded in the American Social Security Death Index.
Descendants report the following. John Virgil died at Oakland in Alameda County and was buried in the Lonetree Cemetery at Hayward in that county on February 29th. Nora was born at Gilman in Madison County, Indiana on October 2nd 1897 to parents Tracy Marshall Hatfield and his wife Marinda Jane (nee) Dowling. She died at Chehalis in Lewis County, Washington on October 8th 1963 and was buried at Centralia in that county on October 12th.
