DETAILS: PARENTS. David Forbuss was the son of Benjamin D. Forbuss (5 Dec 1864 - 21 Aug 1918) and Martha Elizabeth Forbuss (16 Sep 1854 - 26 Jul 1918).

DETAILS: SIBLINGS. David Forbuss had brothers Arter Northlet Forbuss (4 Mar 1845 – 16 Feb 1960), Thomas W. Forbuss (12 Dec 1890 – 15 Jan 1960), and Lee Roy Forbuss (21 Apr 1889 – 13 Nov 1966).

The bond for the marriage license was signed by Artie Forbuss. NOTES: The Arkansas marriage license was dated 27 Nov, and the marriage was solemnized on 30 Nov; meaning that Arkansas had only a 3 day waiting period.
