I am researching this part of the family and am running into a wall trying to figure out
their parents' names. Based on what I've found between family stories and Rootsweb
pages I know the following:
Walsh Adams Chadwick, born circa 1878 in OK or TX. The 1910-30 Censuses had him and his
family living in various SW Oklahoma counties. I do not know when he died, or who his
parents and siblings are.
His wife was Lena Mae, likely maiden name of Adam. She was born circa 1890 in GA or NC.
Again, I don't know when she died, or who her parents or siblings are.
Their children are: James, Bill, Carl, Margrette, John, Jack, Edward, Melvin, and Ross.
I know Melvin died in Corpus Christi, TX on 11/9/97, but I don't have access to that
newspaper to pull up any obituary. I'd also like more information on Ross, any
partners, and children; and what happened to them.
There are also stories of Comanche or other Native ancestry in the family, likely coming
in through Walsh Chadwick's line; perhaps due to a kidnapping / rape situation in
1850-80 in the OK-TX area.
Any information that you have available would be appreciated. (I live in the NW so
taking a trip to the local OK or TX library to look things up is out of the question.)
Thank you.
