Things to check:

Died as a result of Mustard Gas poisoning from WWI.

Check with any United Methodist Church (UMC) in the area where you live. They can give you the address, phone number, etc., of the (office of the) Conference of the UMC that covers the geographical area where your ancestor lived. That Conference ought to have records that would confirm (or deny) whether anyone with the same name as your ancestor was a Methodist minister in that area during the time period. If he was, they would probably have some other information about him.


Note:

The 1920 Texas Census for Ft.Worth, Tarrant, Texas: Enumeration Distict 119, sheet 4, line 26, list Grover Breckenridge as having been born in Missouri and his parents having been born in Kentucky. This firms up the connection between him and his parents John Brooks and Phoebe Kate (Dupont) Breckenridge. The discrepency in age maybe due to reading error of the 1900 census, 1888 may have been 1880. Grover and Vontrice Breckenridge were living at 515 Paggent Ave, Ft. Worth, Texas in the 1920.
