Hersie Burns Graves and Zuleime - Lenoir City

I'm looking for help in finding in maiden name of the wife of Hersie Burns Graves who lived in Lenoir City. He died in April 1967, but was sent to Carroll Co. TN for burial. He worked in TN, AL, MS, then moved to Loudon Co. His second wife was Zuleime, who died in 1993, and is buried beside him in Carroll Co. They married in or after 1930.

According to her tombstone, she was born in 1908 and died in 1993. Since she was about 20 years younger than Hersie, she possibly re-married. Hersie's death certificate only lists her as Mrs. H. B. Graves.

There was a Zuleime James in Lenoir City who was born in 1908 (AL) and died in 1993 (SSDI), so this could possibly be Hersie's wife who re-married.

I've had no luck finding a marriage record or an obit for either of them. If anyone can help by looking in local papers for an obit, or checking marriage records, I would be so grateful, and am willing to pay expenses.
