SMITH: I was born in McCamey, Upton County, TX in 1948. I am wanting
to find all I can about my birthplace. I was delivered in a hospital
there and there were two Drs. who were brothers. The one that was my
mother's Dr. was out of town and the other brother delivered me. For
one reason or another, I was not recroded in the birth records and at
the age of 20 received a delayed birth certificate. My father worked
for Shell Pipeline Corp. and shortly after my birth, we moved to Bakersfield,
I think near Iraan. At the age of four, we moved to Midkiff and I attended
my first 9 years of school at Big Lake (Reagan Co., ISD). If anyone
has information about McCamey, or knows where the camp for Shell Pipeline
was, I would be delighted. My husband and I are going to make a trip
to McCamey this spring break. I want to see where I came from. Thanks,

DAVIS, Alfred Clayton Wednesday,

DAVIS: OK this is a long shot. FIL says he was born in McCamey TX in
1904. McCamey did not exist until 1925 so--I am wondering if by chance
he might just have lived there. Anyway the family I am looking for is
James Edward DAVIS who married Sarah Elizabeth _____. I believe her
last name to be HARBER --might not be. Sarah Elizabeth would have either
died or they divorced abt 1912-1913. James Edward DAVIS and Sarah Elizabeth
had A. C. (Alfred Clayton) DAVIS who m Lillian Orr WATSON AND Goldie
TAYLOR, Beatrice E. who m Burl TAYLOR, Gertrude M. who m Jack PROCTOR,
Nora D. who m Joe DUTY, and Herman who m Fleta ___. James Edward DAVIS
married again to Minnie Mae Spurlin SIMS 1913. They went to jail for
Bigamy -- her divorce was not final when they got married. I have James
Edward DAVIS' line I need to find his 1st wifes name for she is my husbands
grandmother whom he never knew that also leads me to believe that Sarah
Elizabeth died. Census says Sarah Elizabeth's father was b CA. Any help
whould be very appreciated to knock any holes in my BIG brickwall. TIA

STRICKLAND: I would appriciate a marriage lookup covering the time period
1920-1930, for Joseph Winnis STRICKLAND and Nadine (maiden name unknown).
Both Joseph and Nadine were born in 1898. There is some question about
Nadine's name - Nadine may have been her middle name, so if you find
any marriage with Joseph, Joseph W., or Joseph Winnis STRICLAND as the
groom, please let me know the volume and page number so a certified
copy can be ordered. E-mail to whmyers@cableone.net
