No, I dont believe he was black. I know for certain that in 142 and 3 they lived in little
rock and or hot springs arkansas. His wife Marguerite commited suicide 1943 in little
rock, she shot herself in the bathroom while robert was playing with bobbye (my mother)
and with patricia his adopted daughter and a neighbor was in the kitchen. seems marguerite
was ill and she couldnt get over her illness, also maybe post partum depression with the
loss of a son, twin to my mother. she was a very buitifull woman, I have a picture that I
believe is him, but I have no way of knowing for certain. my mother died with out telling
her children anything about her family, we were all raised by our fathers and I met my
mother only 3 times in her lifetime. its a sad story, but I want to peice together the
puzzle for my siblings and our children. thank you very much for your assistance, you have
no idea how appreciated it is. thanks and god bless.
