    Notes 
    • The Social Security Applications and Claims index for Eddie Sandifer shows his birth date as 17 August 1917, and date of death as 2 February 1990. This matches the dates on Find A Grave. The Find A Grave page contains a photo of his Military Marker, showing he served as a Private in the US Army during World War II. His parents on Find A Grave are shown as John L and Edna L Sandifer, and his spouse listed as Eunice L Sandifer (27 April 1902 -5 October 1988-died in Oneonta, Blount, Alabama). It appears he was born three days before his mother, Edna Gerald Sandifer died, presumably of complications of childbirth.

      At the time of the 1930 Federal Census, he was living in Franklin County, Mississippi, Beat 3, in the home of John L Sandifer and his second wife, Vernie, along with his two younger half sisters, Bernice and Irene.

      His U.S. World War II Army Enlistment Records, 1938-1946 instead shows him as born 1918 in Mississippi, divorced with dependents, a resident of Adams, Mississippi, completed 3 years of high school, working as an attendant at filling stations and parking lots, and enlisting at Camp Shelby, Mississippi, Service Number 34344035, Heigth 66 inches and weight 132 pounds
