I appreciate the information you sent in the past. We are still perplexed about whether or not there is a Calvin Whitmire. My wife's mother used the name a great deal and Fay & I ponder whether Elias Whitmire had a middle name or first name of Calvin. Everything from Elias on down to Fay fits with one exception. William W. Whitmire(Elias' son) had a daughter named Nancy Whitmire born 9/10/1881. She married John Albert Lester in October 11, 1899. John was born on 1/16/1877 in La. Nancy died on 2/8/1931 and is buried in Morse cemetery. She was born near Buna. John died 9/22/1967 and is also buried in Morse cemetry. This information was taken from the census and from Fay's mother. Nancy and John were Fay's grandparents. No one with whom I have communicated included Nancy as Elias' daughter. In event you may want the info, Nancy and John had children named Emory Lester, Evie Amelia Lester(Fay's mother who married Walter John Burrell), James L. Lester, John W. Lester, Olivia Lester, Crockett Lester and Rebecca Ann Lester. Evie and Walter Burrell had Hazel Naomi, Elaine, W.J., Iva Maurine and my wife, Faynell. All these children are living. Have you found any info on Elias Whitmire' s ancestors or on Letty Crockett's ancestors? I sure would like to have it if you do. I appreciate your good research on these families. Thank you.
