I am attempting to determine the fate of Eddie C Lawrence, son of William Howe Lawrence

I know that he [age 44] married Ruth B Seeley [age 32] in 1933 in Sheridan County and that they had at least one son (Kenneth, born ca. 1934).

CLUES:
*Ruth Lawrence was noted in the 1934 obit for her younger brother - "in Hay Springs, NE."

*Ruth Lawrence was noted in her half sister's 1940 obit - living in Harrison Co, Iowa

*Ruth was noted in her stepfather's 1944 obit with the name of her second husband and living in Wisconsin.

These clues suggests that either they divorced or Eddie died sometime between 1934 and 1943.

The only other thing I know about him is that according to a brief biography about his brother in the "Centenial History of Hay Springs" - Eddie had preceded him is death and his brother died in the 1970's.

He was not listed in the SSDI, which is not unusual since that index is date restricted and is not all inclusive.

If anyone knows what happened to him: his separation from his wife or his death, please advise.
