Hello to all Nix connections. Although I first joined his listing in early August, I've delayed introducing myself since I know so little about my grandfather, Daniel Alphonso Nix, and the information I did have was contradictory. The 1910 census, Whitt, Parker Co, TX showed my father's father being from Texas. The 1920 census showed his father being from Oklahoma. I've recently found my father's birth certificate which indicates that in March 1909, Daniel was 44 years old and Born in Arkadelphia, Arkansas. So, he was born about 1865. First married to lady named Celia May (?), possibly late 1880's. Have copy of picture of Daniel, Celia May and oldest son, Charlie Hatcher Nix, made in either 1890 or 1895, and indicated living in Rosebud, Falls County, Texas. Had two sons and one daughter by Celia. Daughter died at 18 months of age. Sons grew up and married. Second married to my grandmother, Winnefred Louisa Custis about 1904. They divorced sometime between 1910/1920. Their children: Homer Alphonso Nix, b.1905 d. 4/1985 Infant daughter stillborn no name George Isom Lovell Nix (my father) b. 3/16/1909 d. 3/24/1958 Uncle Homer (who had two daughters but no son) told his eldest grandson that the middle name "Alphonso" was always past down to the eldest son. (That apparently wasn't the case with Charlie Hatcher Nix of the first marriage unless I've been told wrong that he was eldest of two sons by Celia. Don't know Celia's second son's name. ) They were not listed on the 1900 census for Rosebud/Falls County. My grandmother may have met Daniel while she was teaching on an Indian Reservation in Oklahoma. If anything matches up I'd be thrilled to here from you. Georgia I. (Nix) Phillips Georgia@cyberramp.net
