Clara Jenkins was my father's mother; my grandmother. Yes, Ward Ellsworth Jenkins died of typhoid at the age of 22, not having married. Minnie Pearl married Edward Lytle Masson and they had one son, William Edward Masson who died at the age of 8 years from spinal meningitis; they had 3 more children, all girls; Dorothy L., Cora M. and Marie. By any chance, do you have any further information on the Masson side? I would be happy to share what I have, if you need it. Thanks, Alice Jenkins Nicholson Phoenix, AZ Important Note: The author of this message may not be subscribed to this list.
