Eventually the store became MAY CLOTHING AND SHOE STORE and was still in business in 1980 having been operated later by his son, Oscar May and then his grandson, Joseph May. Joseph was a self-taught musician and played several instruments. He died at Lineville in 1932. [Note: Lineville is a small town (population under 300). It gets its name from the fact it sits on the southern border of Iowa abutting the Missouri state line.]
