My grandmother lost my grandfather in 1964 after nearly 45 years of togetherness. My grandmothr and Mrs. Nash shared a house on Mistletoe Ave. in San Antonio,TX while my grandmother worked civil service at Fort Sam Houston,Texas and she worked retail at the Junior Miss store. Mrs. Nash was also a widow. Her husband was Pete Nash and I think he worked in advertising sales at the old San Antonio Light newspaper in San Antonio,Texas. He probably died in the late 1940s or 1950s. I am not sure whether or not Pete was a nickname or his real name. Mrs, Nash had two grandchildren that I knew about and they were Carol Ann Nash and a young man nicknamed "Skeet" -- I don't know his real name. There MAY have been another granchild but the only ones I remember are Carol Ann and Skeet. I can't remember the name of Mrs. Nash's son but I think he was in the service. His wife was named Barbara and she was a registered nurse and I can't remember if she was in the U.S. Army at Fort Sam Houston or if she was a civilian employee at a military hospital. Barbara Nash remarried a military officer surnamed FORD and I can't remember the name of the military service he was in--I think he was a colonel but he might have made it to general. SO she would have been known as Barbara Ford. Mr. Nash gained a stepson named John or Jon Ford who was a TV news reporter in Austin,Texas I believe. I don't remember meeting anyone else in the family. The information on Ota Lee Nash is as follows: OTA L NASH Feb 1904 15 Apr 1992 78229 (San Antonio, Bexar, TX) I don't know where she was born or where she is buried now or what happened to the members of her family. I think she was born on the same day of the month as my grandmother who was Ruth K. Schmidt who died in 1979 and is inurned in the family crypt in Greenwood Cemetery in New Orleans, Louisiana. If you have information on this family or can do an obituary lookup on Mrs. Nash -- IF she had one in the local newspaper, please advice. She might be interred with Pete Nash in the Fort Sam Houston Cemetery or not. THANK YOU FOR ANY AND ALL INFORMATION! Important Note: The author of this message may not be subscribed to this list.
