    1. Huckabee/Herring/Hightower
    2. My late husband's grandparents were William Avery "Pappy" Huckabee b. 1875 AL, d. 1962 Morgan Mill, Erath Co. Tx., married Lamora Elizabeth Herring, daughter of Mark Herring and Malissa Francis Hightower. All of these were early settlers of Morgan Mill area. I have heard many stories about them, and would love to hear more stories. What I really want to find is a book that was probably written in the late 1950's about 'old time cowboys'. A young man came to Ft. Worth, Texas and interviewd "Pappy" Huckabee about his life as a real cowboy as a young man before and about the turn of the century ( late 1800's and early 1900's). I was there when the young man came for the interview but I didn't get his name or who he was from. And I did not hear the interview. If anyone knows the name of the book etc, I would be ever so grateful to know this and where I can get a copy. I have heard that "Pappy" actually was on trail drives on the Chisholm and Goodnight trails. I would like to have this story for our grandchildren and no one in the family seems to know who it was that was writing the story. Thanks for any help... dh
