Jefferson Family

I was bogged down before Christmas trying to find a funeral account or obituary for William Thomas Jefferson.  He died in Pittsylvania County, Virginia and I read in a report that someone had found a January 4, 1913 obituary from the Danville Register.  Ancestry.com has the Danville Register/Bee from 1922 to 1977which leaves me out.
After that disappointment, I called the Danville Register and spoke to the archives room.  They couldn't look it up, but they directed me to the Danville Historical Society that directed me to the Piedmont Historical Society.  No luck there either.  I think I am spinning my wheels here.  I may have enough.  This is what I have so far.

lst generation
My information  marriage license, birth certificate.

2nd generation
My mother and father's marriage license and birth certificate.

All the above is pretty simple, but then in the third generation I have the following:

3rd generation
Eros Gray Bailey

His marriage license to Kissie Mae Crawley
His death certificate, but it does not list his mother's name.
The 1910 census listing Eros Gray Bailey as the son of Robert and Henrietta Bailey
The 1930 census listing Eros Gray Bailey and his wife Mae and son Harold.  They were living in Henry County at the time.
I also talked to my mother about Melvin Bailey that was listed in the 1910 census and she didn't remember a Melvin.  But she did remember that he had a sister named Melba. Melba was also listed in some of the obituaries that I found.
Flossie Bailey Owen (Eros's sister) obituary naming Henrietta Jefferson as her mother.
Minnie Bailey Giles (Eros's sister) obituary naming Henrietta Jefferson as her mother.
Eros's obituary only named his parents as Mr. and Mrs. Robert Bailey.
