Finished up with Harrison Wardlow McBurnett and started on his wife, Margaret C Brown. I’ve never really looked into her life too much, so there is a lot of work to be done with Margaret.

Created an image and posted Wordless Wednesday: Veterans Day. Good timing!

When I started reviewing each and every person in my database a couple of months ago, I really kinda thought that, although not truly wasting time, it would be a lot of busy work that would keep me from “new” research efforts. As it has turned out, that is far from the case. For almost every ancestor that I have reviewed so far, I have found out new information and found new sources. It’s like knowing your next-door neighbor’s last name vs knowing her first name, all of her kids’ names, where she works and what she likes to do. It’s been pretty interesting!

Dovie, not another one!

I finally found Dovie (aka Ruby) and LW Epperson’s marriage in the Tarrant County marriage index:

epperson-epperson

Did you notice something?

“1936 Epperson L W | Mrs Ruby Epperson”

This is a remarriage! Remember the item at GenealogyBank from 1920?

LW Epperson divorce

This was from 19 Sept 1920!

If this index is correct, then Dovie has another marriage! 7 marriages to 6 different husbands! Oh my!

P. S. Skip down 4 lines and you’ll find LW Epperson marrying a different lady, just a year later. Maybe… could Dovie cast spells…?
