Seeking gravestone inscriptions of John G. Peniston and his Sandol "Smith" Peniston who are buried in the Ryan Cemetery. Sandol's name is sometimes spelt Sandal. John G. and Sandol are husband and wife and are my gg grandparents. I do not know the location of the graves in the Cemetery. If there is a county cemetery book, the information I would like (birth dates and death dates) should be in it. Thanks Carlton

Will try to copy and send to you next time. Haven't been to the Terral cemetery in months and should be whipped. My father, brother and GGrandparents are there. Will take photo next time .

I am looking for information on the unknown parents of Robert L Long b:1854/55 in Truce Texas. The children of Robert & Frances Spradling, lived in the area of Ryan Okla and seemed to have travelled between there, Truce and Levelland Texas. I have information ofn the Long's from 1855 with Robert L Long thru present generations and plan to attend the Long family reunion on the 20th of this month in Jacksboro Texas. Thanks and happy hunting ernylong@cox-internet.com

Becky, Yes that's all it says in the directory. Wish there was more. The photo, if I am not mistaken, is the north side of main st. I wish I was capable of enlarging the image in order to read some of the other signs and store fronts. My Mom would be a great help in that. Please do send a copy to me. My daughter has the means to enlarge and sharpen the images where she works. perhaps we can shed more light on things. I left Terral in 1974 but go back to the cemetery and see old friends when I can. I only live 50 miles or so from there but with work and a family it's hard to find the time.
