Curiosity of the Nevada State Prison Website 

 Herbert had several jail terms as well as you can see on his prison card. He must figured he could write bad checks and get away with it, be interesting to know what he was all buying with those checks.He also had a tattoo that suggests to me he may have been in the service at some point in his life. Herbert died

24 Apr 1940 in San Francisco, CA. I didn't find any family information or newspaper articles.  His occupation was a cook.
