Is it possible this Find a Grave refers to him?

Hmm, that is the county's pauper cemetery apparently. But the odds are if it was him, the others would have later death dates than him, not earlier.

They bury them three at time. Many are homeless etc.

So, this unknown below died in Feb, but was likely buried in Oct.
Our unknown died in June and was likely buried in later in the year.
So, this probably would not be him.

That's obviously our guy!
Even looks like him.

Even the description as someone who lived life to the fullest. (Dying in a park, he was likely physically active)

Good find!

I think he was in his 50's.

No proof of death, so can't link

There were two the country. Father died in 1981. This person was from Fl and father was buried in FL. This person resided in South Texas in 2005.

His death index will not be available for some decades.
