Found birth record for Lloyd Junior Bower, born 28 April 1918 in Brighton to Floyd Virgil Bower and Anna Mabel Landers. Did not find any death record or obituary.
Did find obituaries for Floyd, Mabel, Elmina and Paul. There is no mention of Lloyd/Floyd Junior in these obituaries. However, in the obit for Elmina (Oct 1919), it says "The family circle of her grandfather Bower had not been broken in 42 years until this year, death claimed 2 of the little grandchildren". It couldn't be referring to Paul because he was born in April 1920.
Posted the obits for Floyd, Mabel, Elmina and Paul on the Washington, IA Genweb Obit message board (link attached below).
Also note, obits for the children say they were buried at Grace Hill, yet the records for Hillcrest Cemetery show them there with Floyd and Mabel.
