I did find the information on the first marriage of Rebecca Boyett. She married Young L. Childree on 10 August 1882 in Escambia County Florida. A relative of his contacted me and told me he died in 1930 in Texas. He never remarried. I have not found any record of this marriage in the archives of the court. If the marriage was annulled, there probably won't be any record. Tis a mystery for sure. The relative that gave me the info on Young said his mother was a cook for the railroad gangs and they followed the work crews as they laid track. That is how they ended up in Texas. It may be that Rebecca didn't want that type of life, I don't know. It wasn't long after that she married John Helton. I do have a couple of pictures of her and she was a pretty woman. My mom has one of Aslean, and it is one of those hand colored ones that don't really look real. To my knowledge, there aren't any in the family. Those Aunt Hellen had were destroyed by vandals years ago. Again, I thank you for your help. Are you in the Pensacola area? Pam
