Every claim citing this source is accepted as confirmed, supported or family-confirmed.

Open questions touching these claims

  • When and where did Paul T. Fleenor and Emily Symons marry, and are 1 Jan 1913 and 17 Sep 1915 their record birth dates? The marriage is bounded only by Patricia's birth at Evanston in February 1933, so it was before 1933; the 1950 census schedule gives Paul's birth state as Iowa and Emily's as Illinois, and Paul's death in 1990 is now corroborated by two tier-2 sources. Both exact days still come from Find a Grave metadata only, and a 1 January birth is a common index placeholder.

    FamilySearch "Illinois, County Marriages, 1810–1940" (post-1877 registers name the parties' parents) for FLEENOR–SYMONS, Cook County, 1930–1933, then the Cook County Clerk genealogy index as the paid fallback, then Iowa county marriages if Cook County is empty. Cook County birth certificates for Emily (1915), Patricia (1933) and Joan (1934), each of which names the parents and Paul's birthplace. Emily's 1975 Denver death certificate, and the Littleton Independent of July 1975 — the Denver Public Library's 1975–1979 obituary index has no Fleenor entry. For Paul, the Rocky Mountain News item of 17 December 1990 and his Colorado death certificate (question:paul-fleenor:parentage). Promote the marriage claim and the exact birth and death days only from those records; nothing opened names Paul's parents.

  • Who were Emily Symons Fleenor's parents? Her Find a Grave memorial (tier 3) links William Henry Symons Sr (1888–1968, born England, died Evanston) and Olive Bromell Symons (1891–1979, born England, died Wilmette), married 1915, buried at Memorial Park Cemetery, Skokie, with five Symons siblings. No record naming them has been read, contributor links on a public family tree are not a source that names a relationship, and the "Harrap" / "Harrop" middle name varies across the family's memorials.

    Emily's Cook County birth certificate of 17 September 1915 and her 1975 Denver death certificate, both of which name parents; the Chicago Tribune of 25 September 1968 for her father's death notice (a clipping is photographed on his memorial); the 1920–1940 federal censuses for the Symons household at Evanston. Add William and Olive as person records only when one of those names them.

  • Which record names Emily Symons Fleenor as Patricia (Fleenor) Deneke's mother? Paul is named as her father by the 1950 census schedule and by a 2022 and a 2023 obituary, but Emily's motherhood rests on a sibling inference through Joan's obituary and on the schedule's "wife of the head" and "daughter of the head" columns, which state relationship to the head only.

Conflicts touching these claims

  • Joan's mother is recorded as Emily Symons Fleenor (her obituary) and as “Emily Roberts” (a workbook variant).

    Resolution
    resolved — Joan's obituary names Emily Symons Fleenor directly; nothing supports the Roberts form, so it is kept only as a rejected variant, not an established alternate identity.
