Son of William Benjamin and Nancy Octavia Lance.
Floyd was with his dad, Ben, the day he was murdered. He witnessed seeing his father shot in the eye by a local game warden and my dad says Floyd was never the same. Floyd would jump trains and ride in the box cars across country and return home 20- 30 pounds lighter, months later. He was wild and couldn't settle down, married once and divorcing in the 1950's. He had ridden in a boxcar to Washington when he was killed in a fight.
