The centenarian's grave of Kam So Chin resides among many other Chinese headstones. I had to get onto a Chinese 'guess the name' website to determine Kam is male. I couldn't locate any info on Kam online.
Some interesting events that occurred during Kam's birth year:
Jan 28 In a snowstorm at Fort Keogh, Montana, the world's largest snowflakes are reported, being 15 inches (38 cm) wide and 8 inches (20 cm) thick.
