    2. I'm trying to find out about my grandmother's father who was from Limestone Co. Groesbeck area. Minnie Ola Stevens Frazier d/o Lillian Arenda Brown Stevens Sanders. Her father was a Stevens and I believe he had a sister named Katherine and a brother that lived in Groesbeck until his death around 1980's. Minnie had one sister Mildred who is in the nursing home at Groesbeck. Mildred married a Cox. Lillian divorced Stevens after he went to jail for writing checks or something. This was in the 1920's and she never saw him again. Asked her uncle and aunt but they said she was better off not knowing him. She died of cancer in 1975 still wandering what ever became of him. Lillian married George Rumulus Sanders and had several more children. Georgie Ruth, Ella Pearl, Nona Faye, Ion, Thomas and William Sanders. Lillian died in 1957 and is buried in Fort Parker Cem. next to George R. Sanders who died in the 60's. Several of my grandmothers half-siblings still live in the area but know nothing of Minnie and Mildreds fathers family. Mildred is the one that told me he went to jail and it cost her mother $2 to get a divorce but that is all she remembered. After her mother married Sanders they lived close to Oletha where they were share croppers. Minnie Ola and John Frazier met and married in Navarro Co. where she had gone to visit with family near Streetman. Have you ever heard any of these families. Don't know Lillians parents either. Thanks I'd like to find out and complete that side of my family history. Patti Cantrell
