Don and Jeanine, Can't believe you've done so much work on this in such a short time. Thanks. A couple of corrections: Willie Mae Rathell (not Rathial, it is an unusual name, maybe this will bring some Rathell researchers out of the woodwork.) Another child of Henry Harold Petermann and Jewell Swinney - Willie Jean Petermann b. 16 Sept 1937 married Thomas Franklin Patrick about 1960. Daughter Martha Leah Patrick b. 15 June 1971. Martha Leah married James Ovid Douthit III John K. Swinney's wife has been identified as Mary P. Cowart (or Coward) m. AL. Thanks again. Betty Ramsey
