Myrtle had no children (at least none living), Bessie had two sons, my father Walter Ben Thurmond, Jr. and his younger brother Gene Berrien Thurmond who passed away in 1989. Bessie's sister Myrtle (Lady), born 10/10/1900 passed away in June of 1980. Bessie also passed away sometime in 1980's but I have not yet located her death certificate. She was living in Lavaca county at the time of her death but was interred in a family plot in Harris county. Also, have noted a Wesley Ricketson born 10/15/1899, died 10/1965 in Little Rock, Ark. His SS# was issued in Texas prior to 1951. Will secure copy of application asap.
