Sorry, I had skippy Lester and Frank Perrin mixed up in my aging mind. Bell Shanks was a Perrin, not a Lester, before marriage. (Bell's cousin, Ronald Womack, contacted me and reminded me of this. Ron is a fellow genealogy buddy, married to our Society president, Carla.....Thanks, Ron.) This still will not help you find your Lester family, but will correct an inaccurate clue. My apologies.

I am not sure if I am related to Skippy Lester or not. I do know that my grandparents moved to Alvord around 1941-42. That's where most of the children graduated from high school. My dad was at Bridgeport High School and on the football team around 1941. He would have graduated in !944-45, but joined the Marine Corps in 1941 instead. My dad's youngest sister, Edna Frances Lester, would have been about your age. Is there any way to find out the names of the teachers at BHS during the time frame that my dad was there? My grandfather owned a car repair business in Bridgeport until they moved to Alvord. Thanks again for the info.

(My graduating class was 1954) We did have a Great hang out in Bridgeport called Lester's Drug Store. Faye Lester was the daughter of Mr. Lester, and she married John Burt, pharm. who continued the store under Mr. Lester's name. There was a large Lester family in Decatur. I knew of Belle, who married Gene Shanks, and a younger brother,Skippy Lester, who was nearer my age. Skippy Lester dated a friend of mine, Joanne Shanks, sister of Gene Shanks. Guess it ws a sort of family connection. Casual dates only. About all the help I can be, I'm afraid. If you are any connection to Belle, I can put you in touch with her through Joanne.

Forwarded Message: Subj:{not a subscriber} Request for Help in Genealogy Search Date:7/5/2004 3:44:42 PM Central Daylight Time From:richajs2003@yahoo.com To:txwise-l@rootsweb.com CC:james.s.richards@nasa.gov Sent from the Internet (Details) Dear Wise County Texas Genealogy Enthusiasts: In exploring the "family lore" that said a several greats back Uncle John Richards was killed in the massacre at Goliad, I found a clue that led me to Wise County. I have validated that John Richards was indeed one of the victims and that the State of Texas rewarded his heirs with several hundred acres of land. In discussions with personnel at the Texas General Land Office, it came to light that the file on John Richards land grants contained a receipt for a Power of Attorney that had been checked out for use in a lawsuit in Wise County, Texas. Thus, the request for your help. Based on the conversation, I believe the previously mentioned Power of Attorney was issued to Jefferson A. Richards and George F. Patterson in 1860 and removed from the GLO file in the same year. I assume the Wise County lawsuit was filed in 1859 or 1860. The law suit would have involved the heirs of John Richards and would have likely involved his grandsons Jefferson A. Richards and George F. Patterson. The subject of the lawsuit is unknown but the suit is likely to involve land or land claims. I am a direct descendant of Jefferson A. Richards. My interest in this lawsuit is to find names of parents, brothers, sisters, and other relatives of John Richards. Would it be possible in enlist your help in exploring this clue? If there are on-line resources that I can use to help myself, I would appreciate your identifying them to me. Any help that you can provide in following up on this obscure clue will be sincerely appreciated. Regards Steve Richards P.O. Box 188 Harvest, AL 35749 Phone (256) 771-1562

Karen- I'd like to take some time to comment on your article in Sunday (4 July 2004) edition of the Dallas Morning News, re the removals at Bucker orphans cemetery. Due to copyright restrictions, I can't post the article in full. Your article was well done, making a effort at presenting both sides of this topic. As a former reporter, I know that this is your goal. I am posting a copy of this mail to you, to two other locations, one of which is the Dallas county genealogy research e-list, sponsored by Rootsweb.com. These email lists/ forums are set up across the country, to assist those who are looking for their families. In Wise county, there are several volunteers who have invested their own funds and time to list, preserve and photograph burial locations of those buried in Wise county. Usually, relatives who now reside in other areas of the country do not have the means, and sometimes the knowledge to protect the burial places of their own family members. I can, reluctantly, acknowledge that the owners of the land do have need for funds to continue serving those who are presently in need. Your article gives credit to Lloyd McWilliams, who made efforts to maintain all three cemeteries involved. Although your article doesn't implicity point it out, there was one major flaw in all of this. The court was petitioned regarding the removal, and presented with statements that "they couldn't find anybody" related to the individuals being moved. Yet, immediately following that, you provided the responses of not one, but two family members... somehow you (or others) were able to locate these people. Thus, I think it is clear that any efforts to "find" next of kin were very limited. I am biting my tongue, in using the word "limited"... my personal feelings are much stronger. Several years ago, our family tracked down an old cemetery near Decatur, that dates back to the 1860's. One cousin stood near the stone of his grandfather, who died in 1905.. in tears. As he said, "I never thought I'd have the chance to see my grandfather's grave". Another grave is only identified tenatively, as the grave of a sister, who died in 1864. Information concerning the burial place of this sister is something that her gr-granddaughter had been seeking for over 40 years. Incidentally, this cemetery is also the burial place of the mother of those siblings. Since the mother was age 70 when she died in 1868, the assumption might be that since no one living would remember her, there was no one who might have an interest. In fact, her living gr grandchildren (and their children) would have to qualify as "next of kin"... and believe me, they DO care. That caring is passed down through generations. Even today, I am locating family members who only now have the knowledge, or resources to track down this information. The reason I am making sure that this letter is posted, is that it can be archived, for the benefit of someone else unknown, who may not begin their search until five years from now. That includes anyone who might hear the family story of a son/daughter, cousin, or whatever that wound up at an orphan's home, somewhere near Dallas. It is ironic that immediately below your story about the Buckner Cemetery was a report of family members whose father's body is to be returned from China, more than fifty years after his death. It only reinforces that family members do NOT stop caring, or wanting closure to the stories of their loved ones. The number one flaw in what happened with the Buckner Cemetery, is the fact that the Judge in this case was told that "no one could be found". That is, in my opinion and experience, preposterous. The next of kin involved had legal rights to be involved in this process. As demonstrated by your story, it isn't even necessarily true that they would be opposed to removal of the graves. But their option to speak up was waived by the court, by the idea that it was "too hard" to find them. The means of finding family is out there, it just has to be used. In the meantime, organizations such as Save Texas Cemeteries are taking time to insure that family rights concerning burial locations are protected. It is a pity that the Judge seemed to be so unaware of these issues. Wendy Caldwell Rowlett, TX

I do not believe that Bennie had any children. Elisha Pinkney Barnett was my uncle. I do not have anything on the Crenshaw family except this. I had several pictures of the Crenshaw family, because Uncle Pinkney and Aunt Esther did not have children and after Aunt Esther died, Uncle Pinkney deeded his home to my mother to take care of it. He and Esther were both in the rest home and when he died we sold the house to pay for the funeral expenses for both of them. Mom had the pictures and after she died we gave them to Ruth Roberts, her mother was a sister of half-sister to Bennie. She has moved from Bridgeport, but possibly I could get her address, if you would like.
