resent by listowner ... From: RUPRICE@aol.com : Subject: Dempsey Tarver line To: lotusc@tyler.net : : : Hi, Seeking information on Peggy Lou Bunch. Also, there is one thing I wanted to add to your project and a couple of corrections. For the children of Jennings Tarver and Lorenia Burt, James Walter Tarver's wife was Prudence Priscilla Westbrook, dau. of Richard Dunkin Westbrook and Julena Jane Coward. (Coward is also my line). For Mary Ann Tarver & Zachariah Lofton, their son, Ike Lofton married Mary Magdalene Ratcliff instead of Magdaleina. She was my grandfather's (Benjamin David Ratcliff's) sister. Their daughter Anna md. Odis Woodall and Etheline was (or is?) Anna & Odis' daughter. Ike & Mary Magdalene Lofton's daughter, Mayfred, who is my 1st cousin once removed married my grandmother's (Mary Donis Lewis Ratcliff's) brother, Theodore Bilbo "Theo" Lewis. So Mayfred is my great Aunt on the Lewis side (by marriage) and is my 1st cousin once removed on the Ratcliff side. Then if you go further back, John Benjamin Ratcliff married Abigail Lofton and we are related by that also, like 4th or 5th cousins. Something like that. We always laugh about the ways we are related. Aunt Mayfred just got out of the hospital recently and is 84 years old. She had a kidney removed due to kidney cancer, but is I think doing well. My sister visited her the other day and said that she is doing alright for all that she has gone through. She lives in Baton Rouge (I am in Denham Springs). I have other information on the Lofton's, Lewis', Ratcliff's and Coward's if you are doing any of these lines. Ruth Price #Lotus D.
