This is a paragraph from a Life History tale from the WPS Project. The speaker is May Lee Queen, White Oaks, New Mexico, Aged 56 years. "Father had always wanted a cattle ranch, so they moved down to southwest Texas and bought a cattle ranch about twenty miles from Brackettsville, Texas. The family came by train from Virginia to Texas and had been there only a short time when I was born on June 1st, 1882. About two years later my mother had another baby girl, and she and I were the only children born in the United States. While we were living there Father met a man named McBee who had a ranch at White Oaks, New Mexico. He was always telling Father what a great country New Mexico was, so in 1886 my father sold out his place near Brackettsville and started for New Mexico. " Anyone know who this McBee might have been? Does anyone know anything about Francis Marion McBee? Ron McCandless
