|
| Mattie Fox and children |
On the back of this photo -see at
right- the names appear to be:
_____iel? Fox
Mattie Fox - this name is the clearest
Adam? Fox - or could be Alan
_____ Fox
Beneath the names is what could be a
sentence, but the writing is too faded to read it. The first word may say "___zanne" ?
About 3/4" below that is a word that appears
to be "give" but again, this is very faded.
I have not found a Mattie ____ that married
a Fox, yet. The real name might be Matilda or Martha.

| James Caswell Keeler w/wife Eliza McFarlin & 3 granddaughters |
Teresa's great-grandfather, Jim Keeler was
the son of John Adam Keeler and Mary Ann Matilda Baker. He married Eliza Cassander McFarlin, dau of John Green McFarlin and
Nancy Frances Jones.
The little girl standing in front of Eliza
is Mina Frances Cox, daughter of Elma Della Keeler and Aulcy Cox. The other two children were named Lottie Lee and Ada Belle,
but I do not know who their parents were yet. Judging from Frances's age, this photo was probably taken about 1927/28, in
Liberty Hill, TX.

| Keeler Wives |
|
|
| Taken in Denton, Texas |
Left to right: Willie Mae Jarnigan, wife of
Newt Keeler, their son Marvin Keeler, and Margaret Jane Dockery, 2nd wife of Wilburn Alonzo Keeler. Photo is from the collection
of Bill Dockery, a descendant of M.J.'s brother George Rufus Dockery, and was sent to me by Dockery researcher Beulah "Sunny" Karr.
The back of the photo is a postcard, that says
"M.J. Keeler
Willie Keeler
Marvin Keeler
Denton TX"
with the note "Don't get seared at us, Lissie."
Lissie was Elizabeth,wife of George Rufus Dockery. I assume the word 'seared' is used
here to mean mad or aggravated.
| George Mitchell "Mitch" Keeler |
|
|
Paulette's grandfather, George M. , known
as "Mitch". He was the son of W.A. Keeler and Nancy C. Fox.
