Distinction from W. E. Hayman (d. 1924)

The W. E. Hayman who co-founded Hoffmann-Hayman Coffee Co. died in 1924; his wife was Anna Hayman. This 1938 person’s mother is Mary Hayman — a different name. He is likely a relative (nephew, son of another Hayman branch) rather than a son of the 1924 W.E. Hayman.

Fort Sam Houston burial suggests military service, possibly WWI or early WWII era.
