    3. Well, I have more family from Williamson Co. that I knew about. My grandparents Dolph and Daisy Waters lived on Court Street from around 1924-1942. My mother, Freeda Waters, went to high school there and opened a beauty shop, also on Court Street. It was over their grocery store (probably Waters Grocery). After my grandparents divorce, Grandmother moved to Pope Co. to live near us. That was probably in 1952. My grandfather, Dolph Waters, lived at Creal Springs from about 1945 until he died in 1971. He owned another grocery store. His daughter, Ida Waters, of course lived there too and attented Marion High School. Grandpa's first cousin was Henry Waters. His wife was Texi, but I don't know her maiden name. They had two daughters, Pauline Spiller and Dorothy Spencer. Dorothy worked at Western Union. Pauline was married to Clyde Spiller and had a beauty shop in her home. Dorothy had a daughter named Linda, born around 1963. Pauline had three children, Susie, Clyda, and Tom Spiller. My dad, Buel Robbs, had two cousins in Herron, Ill. One owned a gas station. They were John and Dee Robbs. Also in Creal Springs was Alex and Matilda Broadway Robbs. I have to think about how I am related to them, but they were my cousins. Alex died in 1932. I think Matilda was sister in law to my great-great-aunt and Alex was a Robbs cousin. If anyone has knowledge of any of these people, I'd love to hear from you.
