My only clue to his parents and/or siblings is in the census copied below..... on the original microfilm, the HH was hard to read but this is what I think it was: 1900 Fannin Co TX/Prec 5/HH 529-529/pg 95b (29 Jun 1900) LAWSON, Fr__k /HH/wm age 29 born Apr 1871 TX/unk/Ms + married 6 yrs Lawson, Dora /wife/wf age 24 born Mar 1876 Tx/unk/Tx + 3 of 3 chn lvg Lawson, May /dtr/wf age 04 born Sep 1895 Tx/Tx/Tx Lawson, Alpha /dtr/wf age 03 born Feb 1897 Tx/Tx/Tx Lawson, Elna /dtr/wf age 09 mos born Oct 1899 Tx/Tx/Tx NUNNALY, John /NEPHEW/wm age 17 born Jul 1882 Tx/Al/Ms + single The birthdates for Fr__k and Dora match as being John Franklin Lawson and his wife Dora Belle who are buried at the Forest Grove Cemetery, Telephone, Fannin Co, TX..........??? Do you know if they are the same persons? Did you ever learn Dora Belle's maiden name? Do you know what happened to May, Alpha, and Elna Lawson? The John Nunnally show on the census above was in Atoka Co, OK by 1910 and married to Audrey [Shepard] who was also born in Texas. It is possible they may have married in Texas abt 1907. Do you recognize any of this information??? Kathye
