Otto’s Plate

 Otto Hardesty married Lillie Arvilla Gaddy.  They had a store at Coin, AR. In the the teens of the 1900’s.  In 1916, Arvilla was appointed postmistress of Coin.  In 1914, they gifted these plates to customers of their store.  One has surfaced and the owner, Dexter Combs wants me to have it.  I told him to take it to Sister Fleta.  He said he would.  Arvilla’s death certificate has she died of nervous disease. She passed in 1942.  Otto passed in 1955.  I think they rest at Denver Cemetery.
