Individual Details

"Linton T. Perkins never married. After Celia Greear broke up housekeeping, Lennie delivered Celia, Effie and Bertie to Aunt Matilda's at Albany, Texas. He was a cowboy of sorts. After awhile the letters stopped coming. They assumed he had died. Bertie's last letter had been from Wyoming." (Letter to Mildred Wilhelm from Myrtis Heizer) (Note from Ralph Terry:  Celia Greear is Celia Greear Perkins.  After Linton died in 1891, Celia broke up housekeeping.  She kept Effie and Bertie, who were the children of Celia's daughter, Almeda Elizabeth Perkins Martin.  Almeda died in 1885 and her husband in 1898 ... he was a lot older than her.)
