    3. Can anyone help me connect my great-grandmother... as is usually the case, I don't have much to go on, but what I have is verified. Martha "Mattie" A. West married Willis Marion "Doc" Rogers in 1878 in Denton County, Texas their children were: Mary Magdalene 1880 William Henry 1885 John Burton 1889 Martha died shortly after John Burton was born and John was raised in Oklahoma by a brother to Doc. John Burton died very young (1907) and is buried in Snyder County, Oklahoma. Family information indicates that Martha died in Texas as that is where all 3 children were born. I have the original marriage certificate but cannot seem to find any more information on her. Stories say that she may have been the only daughter of a wealthy Texas family and they did not approve of Doc so Mattie and Doc eloped. Thanks in advance, Fran
