Linda, I don't know about the twin or if there was one.I do know Aunt Louise came to Ga. as I was growing up to see us and she cussed her dad William R. Long Sr. saying he kept their mother pregant all the damn time.He was a brilliant man who spoke five languages and went to Oklahoma for years to teach the Indians. But evidently he was a horny ol' goat.I would have operated on him very shortly.My Dad never said a bad word about his Dad.Aunt Louise didn't mind letting it spew. We would laugh at her when she got on her tirade.Her husband worked for the RR.. He was an engineer.They had their own private sleeper to travel where ever they choose. What the children didn't know was that William Robert Long bought and sold property where ever they lived. The children thought they were share croppers. But evidently they had sharecroppers working their land.The ol' man was too busy making babies.I have copies of deeds from Arkansas,Texas, Louisiana,Ala. What is really sad is their son William Robert Long Jr.'s life.I am trying to find where his second wife and he were living when she killed his only child with arson.And then killed herself after she was found out.Could I please ask you to look him up in 1910 to see who he was married to and see if the son is listed?His first wife died and left him with the son.I don't know either of the wife's names.I noticed he wasn't with the Longs in 1910 so he probably was married between 1900 and 1910 to the first wife.He died Sept.1939 in Houston married to his third wife Bertha. Thank you so much, Bonnie
