Tom, In reply to your question about Breedloves and skin cancer or cancer in general: my father, Iverson Delansen Breedlove, Jr., died of a malignant melanoma and I have had one removed from my nose -- not a pretty sight, but I am doing fine five years later. My father had red hair and a red head's complexion. He also loved to garden, hunt and fish. The Texas sun must have been too much for him. I also wonder if his grandfather, Henry Fletcher Breedlove, died of some form of cancer. I was sent a wonderful obituary for Henry Fletcher from an Arkansas newspaper. It sounded like he suffered a while before he died. Martha Breedlove Kahn
