I believe he was Mexican or Spanish.
According to the obituary, he was of Choctaw Native American and Apache Native American descent.
I’m talking about his great great grandfather and his wife Maria. They’re both white with Spanish names according to censi (Marcelino’s find a grave memorial has him as ”husband of Maria Sanchez”), but then again his father Hosea is from Texas, and Apaches are from Texas among other places and often have Spanish last names. If you could expand more on it, since I only found the paternal line it would be great.
Anyway, I connected their graves to Glyndell’s, just have to wait for it to get approved.
Oh I found Glyndell on a census.

Here both his parents are ”Mexican” but it could mean just mestizo.
