I am interested in learning more about Laila Eiffert who died April 18, 1966. She was a widow by 1920. I am not sure if he died in Texas or who he was. It would be wonderful if someone could do a look up for me to see if there was an obituary for her that may have listed her husband. She had a brother Clarence Bell who died in 1971 and ran a tire service center in Ranger.

Hi all, I'd like to add a little to the Roll Call. Contact me if you "know" these people: My g-g-grandfather was Lemuel Burton who is buried in Bear Springs cemetery at Carbon (born 1833 in TN, died 1896). Two of his daughters (Frances/Fanny and Dora) married Noels, and they are buried at Bear Springs also. Fanny was also married to a Snow after her husband P.F. Noel died. Dora didn't remarry after James died. Lemuel was married to my g-g-grandmother Pharaby (Davidson) Burton (born 1842, died about 1900), until they divorced in 1891. I've been looking for any information about where she relocated after the divorce. I know Lemuel kept their 40 acres in Carbon and married their neighbor, Susan Easton, and that they had a daughter, Samathia I think it's spelled. I also can't find much information on their daughter Ida (Burton) Burnett, who was born in 1876 in Bosque country, and moved to Carbon with her parents in the 1880s. I do have a marriage license from Eastland county in 1898 where she married a "W. Burnett." Another daughter, Emily, married a man named Emmons. I understand from one of her line that Emily died in Wise county of TB. They were living in a wagon at the time, which may have been a treatment for the TB. We can't find a burial site for Emily. The other daughter, Cynthia Ellen, is my g-grandmother, and married John Brady in southern Oklahoma in about 1895. He's buried in Borger, TX, and she is buried in Elk City, OK. Pharaby and Lemuel also had sons James and John. John is buried at Bear Springs with wife Lula. James, who was married to a Worley (Hattie?) for years, is buried in a nearby farming community the name of which escapes me presently. Sorry for the lack of dates - I'm doing this from rusty memory in order to make the roll call deadline. I can certainly look them up if anyone needs this information. I'd especially like to track down some other descendants that might have more information about Pharaby and other members of the family. I've read so many old Carbon newspapers I feel like I know these interesting people. Kind regards, Wilson

I am working on the Cook family of William and Louisa, and all of their children. One of their oldest sons, Stephen Franklin Cook married Henry Ellen Gurlie and they moved to Woodward, OK, before 1920. Jerry Johnston Scottsdale, AZ
