Today I was checking out the information on Clarence Jennings Nix on Roots Web and found your information. �

I do research on the people who rest in the Eldorado Cemetery in Eldorado, Jackson Co, OK. �I have some additions which you might be interested in and also some differences. �Use what you want.

Clarence Jennings Nix died 17 Feb 1959. �He was born in Leonard, TX. �His second wife was Vesta Viola Gatlin (her second marriage). �She was born 1 Feb 1901 and died 25 Nov 1979 in Chillicothe, Hardeman Co, TX. �They are both buried in Eldorado.

I was quite surprised to find that Sarah Elizabeth Freeman Nix is also buried in Eldorado. �I show from the gravestone that her birthdate is 18 Mar 1866.

For Fred Eugene Nix I have the birthdate as 16 February 1901, from his obituary and that he was born in Floyd, TX.

I had not found the name of Clarence Nix's first wife, so thanks for that. �Also I did not have the children of Miles & Sarah correct. �One which I had and you didn't was William Oliver Nix. �However, since you had a William Henry I decided my William Oliver was in the wrong family.

Thanks for your help.

This shows Fred in Alabama in 1920, he did not go to Texas?? Or maybe he was home on a visit.
