Posted on: Bowie County Queries Reply Here: http://cgi.rootsweb.com/~genbbs/genbbs.cgi/USA/Tx/Bowie/10545 Surname: ------------------------- The Texarkana Genealogical Society has about 9000 original marriage licenses from Bowie County that were never picked up. William is listed as William H. Morris married Arlinda Johnson in 1914. Since it appears that William is kin to Jerome you might want to recover his marriage license. There is a link on the Bowie County Gen Web to the Texarkana Society that will give you instructions on how to obtain the license. Marland
