Surnames: Tullos, Simons Classification: Query Message Board URL: http://boards.ancestry.com/mbexec/msg/rw/VlB.2ACE/993.2.1.1.1.1 Message Board Post: Yes, Birtie Tullos (maiden name was Simons, parents vollie (?) and martha, they are supposed to have Cherokee blood, but I have yet to confirm it). Birtie was married to Steve Rastius Tullos. They had 8 children together, one of them being Herman Edwin Tullos. Herman's wife told me the story of how her husband actually dug the grave himself for his mom. She says she has been to this cemetary before, but that was over 20 years ago. Me as 2 other researchers(Peggy and Angela) are trying to uncover as much detail about the Simons as we can. We have located them in the census records but are stopped there. When my wife's grandmother told me about the cemetary I thought it might unlock some questions. Steve R. Tullos is buried in Rosewood Cemetary in Humble, TX.
