William
Alonzo Reed
was born January 11, 1878 in Shackelford, County, Texas, and died
October 10, 1957 in Beckham County, Ok. He married
Essie Belle Robertson Abt. 1895 in Beckham County, Ok,
daughter of William L. Robertson
(1854-1934) and Viola J. Carnes
(1854 - 03/11/1922). Essie is recorded as born April 10, 1879, and
died November 05, 1962 in Beckham County, Ok. and was buried there.
Chicking the 1880 census makes me believe she was born after 1880
census in Eastland County, Texas.

| More
about Essie's Parents William L. Robertson and Viola J Carnes::
Viola Died in Hidalgo County, New Mexico March 11, 1922. Death
Certificate said she was 66 years 7 months 8 days of age at
death. Death Certificate said she was married to J.H. Robertson.
J.H is not correct. The certificate calms she was born in Tennessee
as both her parents. It lists her father
as J.D. Carnes, mother "Don't
Know". No informant was listed, which would
explain the inaccurate husband name. My guess is J.H. Robertson
is a member of the family, possibly a son. Viola and husband
William L. Robertson are both buried in Mountain View Cemetery,
Lordsburg NM. I have not located William L. Robertson's
death certificate. He may have did in Arizona since some research
had a passing mention of Arizona and Arizona is only a few miles
from Lordsburg. . Research points to William and Viola living
in Eastland County Texas in 1880, which meets Shackelford County
in their corners. I think Esie was born after 1880 since she
is not listed in the census with her parents. |
