Hi Debbie, my Cantrell brick wall is my GAunt, Cora Lee Cantrell who married GUncle, William Pinkney Hightower. She was born in 1886 in Polk Co., GA, died 1971 in Whitney, Bosque, TX & is buried at the Hillcrest Garden of Memories in Hillsboro, Hill, TX. William was born in 1875 in Frost, Navarro, TX, died 1957 in Waco, McLennan, TX & he is also buried at Hillcrest Cem. Their youngest child, is still living (Hillsboro), is elderly & in very bad health. I do not correspond with them, but I have a cousin who visits them every so often & if he is having a reasonable day, she is able to get bits of info now & then, but it is definitely just bits. Most of my Hightowers are buried at Frost Cemetery in Frost, Navarro, TX. Cora & William had 8 children. Do you have Cora listed in your files?
