Individual Details

Aline Briles

(23 Aug 1909 - Feb 1987)

The 1910 Ellis County, Texas, Census says that she was 7 months old in April 1910, which would mean that she was born in October 1909. However, Aline's records with the Social Security Administration says that she was born on August 23, 1909. The SS records are used above.

In a letter from Winona Briles Brown (daughter of Aline's Uncle Wilbur) to Sara Briles Moriarty dated July 20, 1982, Winona reports that both Aline and her husband were at a Briles Family Reunion that took place in Italy, Texas, earlier that month, so they both still alive as of that date. In that letter, Winona also says that Aline was 72 years old when the reunion took place, which, depending upon the month of her birth, agrees with the birth year given for her above.

In a letter from Winona to Sara dated Decmeber 1983, Winona says that, as of that date, Aline had moved to Bryan, Brazos County, Texas to live near her children and that her grandsons were attending Texas A&M in nearby College Station, Texas, at that time.

The Social Security Death Index says that her SS Card was issued in Texas and that its number was 449-24-6863.
