Talk:Caleb V. Haynes

Birthplace duality
Some sources say Haynes was born in Mount Airy, North Carolina, and others say Dobson, a little to the west in the same county. The gravestone reads "Dobson". Binksternet (talk) 23:12, 1 February 2010 (UTC)


 * Vance Haynes, the general's son, said to me on the phone that he put Dobson on his father's gravestone because that is what he remembered from family history. This despite the fact that he knew that his father always reported his birthplace as Mount Airy. Binksternet (talk) 21:37, 18 February 2010 (UTC)

Death date
All online sources specify April 5, 1966 as Haynes's death date, except for the photo of his gravestone at Arlington, which reads April 4, 1966. Binksternet (talk) 23:12, 1 February 2010 (UTC)


 * Two local obits put his death date at April 5. His son Vance Haynes says that the general went to bed on April 4 complaining of pain such that he intended to go to the hospital in the morning, but in the morning he was found to have died during the night. One of the two local obits says he was rushed in an ambulance to nearby Fort Ord military hospital where he died, the other, later obit says he died at home. Both obits were in the same newspaper; I believe the second one is more measured and reflects fuller reportage. Binksternet (talk) 23:29, 18 February 2010 (UTC)
 * That is because the physician puts on the death certificate where they made the call that you are dead-on-arrival. It all depends on whether they take you to a hospital or a funeral home when you die.--Richard Arthur Norton (1958- ) (talk) 06:05, 21 January 2017 (UTC)
