Description	:	Billy was one of a set of twins. Billy lived only 3 hours. His twin brother Bobby died just after his first birthday. Billy's formal first name was William, which was also the middle name of his twin brother, who was named Robert William Corbin, so the records can be confusing. There were two other older children in the family who reached adulthood.

Read More	Billy was one of a set of twins. Billy lived only 3 hours. His twin brother Bobby died just after his first birthday. Billy's formal first name was William, which was also the middle name of his twin brother, who was named Robert William Corbin, so the records can be confusing. There were two other older children in the family who reached adulthood. Billy's birth and death certificates indicate that he was born in Akron, but his parents were living in Battle Creek Township in Ida County. Since he was born prematurely, the birth may have been unexpected, or his mother may have gone to stay with relatives in Akron prior to his birth. Someone must have provided Billy's marker later on, because the year is wrong. It should be 1924, not 1925. His brother Bobby has a matching marker on which the dates are also wrong; it says 1925-1926 when it should say 1924-1925. I have posted death certificates for both twins with the correct dates on them. Billy is buried beside his grandfather, Edward Pendleton. Theirs are the only 2 markers in the lot, although there are more grave spaces. Edward's wife remarried after his death and is buried with her 2nd husband. Probably she originally planned to be buried in Riverside. Billy's twin brother is buried with their parents in Battle Creek, where they were living at the time of his death.
