Is there any mention of Viola Perry in any of your information? She was born 6-22-1873 and died 8-4-1960 She married Joseph Henry Pealore B 2-16-1859 and D 4-3-1931 They were in Foard County in Vivian, TX originally Pealoreville in 1890 census. Joseph was the first postmaster of Vivian April 18,1891. I believe his father to be Dr. Joseph Pealor ( Pealore) B 8-27-1814 and D 7-10-1884 who is in the 1880 Bastrop Co. census page 120 township E.D. 11 ID# TX287119599. Chances are that Joseph Henry was born in Bastrop Co as Dr. Joseph is buried there High Grove (Red Rock 221) Both Viola Perry Pealor and her husband Joseph Henry are buried in Terral, Jefferson Co, Oklahoma. The problem is that I have no info on the Perry side and nothing solid on Joseph Henry Pealore's father who I believe to be Dr. Pealore.
