I have a 1927 Death Certificate for a 3 month old child and it says his death occured at the E.M.B.M. Hospital and the Adjutant Matshall of the Hospital was the informant. Does anyone know what this stands for?
Thanks,
Cathy Griffith

From the book -- "Greenville: Woven From The Past", by Nancy Vance Ashmore Cooper...


"The $250,000 Emma Moss Booth Salvation Army Hospital was dedicated in 1921 by Evangeline Booth, the national commander of the army, with half of the financing provided by local mill owners. The sixty-six bed hospital operated until 1930 when it became bankrupt and was taken over by the Franciscan Sisters as a private hospital, and renovated as St. Francis Hospital."

THANK YOU, I bet that is it, as I said in another message the term "Adjutant Marshall" reminded me of the Salvation Army. I really appreciate the help.
