Runt's tombstone definitely says GEATHER and hs granddaughter Heather in an RR post says his first name was just one letter different than hers. Perhaps it was written wrong as Gaither years ago and just continued to be spelled that way in news stories and photo cutlines???
Dave, I always heard it was Gaither "Runt" Harris ? Do you have any race history magazine/newspaper articles or death noticed with Gaither Harris' name in it ? Mount Calvary Cemetery in Richmond, Va. has tombstone with "Runt" Geather W. Harris. Birth: Jun. 4, 1927 Death: Jun. 30, 1990 -- Theresa E. names on it ? It appears that the above tombstone with Theresa E. Harris on it is an old tombstone? The death date was added later? Who is Theresa E. ? No birth date or death date ? Was Theresa E. Harris the first wife/ex-wife of Geather W. "Runt" Harris? I heard there was some in - house fighting(relatives, wives or both) on the location of Runt Harris' Final Resting Place ? On findagrave.com website has: Family links: Spouse: Mamie L Reynolds Harris (1931 - 2004) https://www.findagrave.com/cgi-bin/fg.cgi?page=gr&GRid=128257403 P

@jeff-gilder - Yes, this one of Runt Harris is fine. But look at Sonny Hutchins group:

Yup...that one is a mess. I can't do anything with it. I may have to "re-create" those groups. Thanks, Chase!
