Had two children. Daughter, Elizabeth GRADY and son, who name I don't know,he was younger. I have my grandmother Elizabeth GRADY birthday as 15 Oct.1872 born in Texas or Arkansas. Probably in TX,in Lamar County.They were supposed to have had a farm near Paris,TX. In the 40s', an aunt checked with a lawyer in Paris. He said the land applications had never been finished??? I don't understand this and have never been to Paris,TX to see what the records actually do say. Could be Charlie died at that time. An uncle, white ot Indian? took the children into his home. When the young brother died, grandmother Elizabeth ran away. I have no record until 1910, when she is found on 1910 Sevier Co. AR Census, with her husband, M.A.BOWERS and 4 children. Any help will be appreciated.
