    1. [WATTS-L] look-ups-Cates & Watts
    2. Hi, Looking for ancestors... (who isn't!) Richard Albert Watts died 5/1/1907 in Childress Sally Jane Cates Watts died 1936 in Childress... I believe she is buried at Tell Methodist Cemetery.Their son William Frederick Black Watts was born in Franklin Co in 1884 so they didn't arrive in Childress until after that... His daughter Nina Opal Watts was born 8/24/1907 in Childress I'm hoping to find a birth record, obits, death notices, tombstones, tax or deed or census records for the period from 1884-1936. Can anyone help me find any of these? (I've checked the Genweb site) I'd like to get photocopies/photographs of original records if possible and tombstones (and will gladly pay for any copying, film, or postage!), but just some insight on how to find these records in Childress county would be very much appreciated! For instance, is there a local newspaper that was publishing back then &, if so, is there an archive I could write to?? Is there an index to cemetery lists & does someone have access for a look-up? Is there a funeral home that might have records from that period (1907 &19363)? How can I find birth records if they exist? Does anyone have access to census, tax or deed records? Any links or look-up people out there? I really need some help with these folks! Thanks! Cyndi in Baltimore
