Hi Terry. I've been trying to get information from censuses. The 1920 Census for Red River Co. has William E Weeks 43, born Missouri (his parents both born there too), Maude 33 wife, born Texas (her parents born in MS and TN). Five daughters! There is a family tree on Family Search.org for Maude which seems to be wrong. Andrew Wilson
Yes, I notice a couple of different information was wrong. I know William E Weeks and Maude Ellen Weeks(Dancer) had 8 children, one die at born and there were 6 girls and one boy. One of those girls was Ora Leatrice Weeks which was my grandmother. I would love to find out more. I know my dad was born in Wolfe City.
