I am researching Peter MABRA/MARBRA who I found in the 1910 census in Dallas county. He was originally from Cotton Plant, AR. He owned property on First Street in Fordyce and had a cobbler shop uptown. There used to be speculation that he was white, but the 1910 census listed him as black, so perhaps he was just very light-skinned. His wife was Amanda and they had a son named John who was 19 in 1910. Peter is my gggrandfather on my father's side. He died in 1937, are there death records available for that year?
