Bias on 29 Jun 1904 in Huntington, West Virginia, and they were the parents of 3 daughters; Pauline Laura, Alma Irene, and Loyis Alzada. He died at the age of 33, reputedly from lung cancer, leaving behind a widow and three children. His occupation sheds new light on the actual cause of death. Ollie was a boilermaker for the railroad and a cousin, Boyd LeGrand, said he would crawl inside the boilers to clean them. Boilers were lined with asbestos and nothing was known about asbestos lung disease (Mesothelioma) in those days. Ollie was a loving and caring father who was taken from this world too soon. My grandmother adored her father and spoke kindly of him. His widow, Bessie, never remarried.
