Additional Comments: Transcriber comments and clarifications are in [square brackets]; Source: Newspaper clippings from the "Roland" family file, #3367, at the York Heritage Trust library, York, PA; on death certificate (http://files.usgwarchives.net/pa/york/vitals/deaths/roland-daniel-1.txt), doctor gives date as Nov 4, 1919, but 5 Nov 1919 was a Tuesday, so newspaper articles are probably correct.
