Louise Poe Dillahunty. Ellen, as she was known to her family and to her aunt, uncle, and cousin who brought her to Texas within a month or two before her marriage, was the daughter of William and Clarissa Draper Snelling. This William, who was murdered in the town of Snelling, California, in 1857, was a geandson of William and Sarah Scott Snelling. Buck died in 1921; Ella died in 1940; both are buried in the Higgins Cemetery in Lipscomb County, Texas. Beulah Dillahunty (1874-1968), Buck and Ella's second child married, in 1893, A. Lee Gragg (1866-1935). Both are buried at Higgins, Lipscomb County, Texas. Beulah and Lee had seven children that I know of, of whom Vada was the third. She married John Hughes and they had at least one child, Euola Hughes, born 6 Mar 1930 in Lipscomb County. Sorry, that's all I know about the Hughes family, other than that Vada died 19 Jun 1952 and is buried at the Higgins Cemetery. I presume you are the Lisa Eggleston who is listed in a Lipscomb county history as one of the great-grandchildren of Lee and Beulah Gragg.
