I believe this is Jessie Vance Taylor, born September 10, 1930 in Paducah, Texas. He’s listed in his mother’s obituary as living in San Antonio, Texas in 1973, and I’ve not been able to find any record of him after that.

There are a few public Ancestry trees, but most don’t have the correct death record attached (entirely different Jessie Taylor) and one has come to the same conclusion I have. Is anyone able to find something?
