I was born in 1950, so my contacts have been limited to their sons, daughters and grandchildren, of which my father, Jack Douglas Dunbar is one. I met Minnie E. Strauch, their daughter- for whom I was a dead ringer when she was my age. My younger sister Holly, looked a lot like Ester when she was a teen. I spent several days with Great Aunt Minnie E.'s son Jim, who graduated Harvard and became a dermatologist in San Antonio. I was an exchange student in Central Mexico and a friend and I went up to Texas to get her green card renewed mid-year in 1970. Jim was my younger sister, Laurel's godfather too. Zebulon Wright Davis Dunbar was my grandfather- who died early- so I never met him. I did spend time with our Great Uncle Gordon at his home in the 60s and met some of his beautiful grandchildren with the surname Morgan. My father spoke of Aunt Jean and cousin Janet. They were among his favorite relatives. Thanks for posting here and there. Write if you feel like it. I would like to ask you about some of your sources.
