My mother told me his third wife was a "beautiful woman by the name of Kathleen." I'm wondering if this Kathleen Bridges from Beaumont, TX is the same woman. If so, we have a connection! Please let me know if I'm following the right track. My Uncle Russell had been a colonel in the Air Force and then joined the police force and worked for the FBI in Beaumont. My understanding is that he had a son named Truman from his first wife. Please let me know! Paula
