Individual Details

I believe Sarah E. in the family in 1880 was in fact "Letha" - probably named Sarah Aletha. The Polk Co genealogy society records received some years ago from another family researcher had almost everything wrong about this family - they had a son "James" born 1880, but no such person ever appears in a census or related to this family and I believe there was no such person.

Letha married Henry Marshall Womack 20 Jun 1893, Lamar Co, TX.

Probably Henry's parents:
