    3. Posted on: Henderson County, Tx Query Forum Reply Here: http://cgi.rootsweb.com/~genbbs/genbbs.cgi/USA/Tx/Henderson/11443 Surname: Carter, Cook, Shue, Watkins ------------------------- John Foster Carter was adopted by William David "Dave" Carter and Mary Luella Shue in 1916 in Henderson County, TX. John was born in Sabine Parish, LA in 1896 to a Cook family. The Cook family had many children and couldn't take care of him. William and Mary Carter took him in at the age of two months until the Cook's could get on their feet. Family story goes that after 1910 when the Cook's wanted him back, William Carter moved to Texas so they couldn't find John. John never knew his birth parents and went by the Carter name. Just before John married Alma Watkins, John was adopted by the Carter's. Selida

    3. Hi I am interested in the "SHUE" name. My brother married a 'SHUE' and this may be his wife's line.
