  • Notes 
    • Jackie Barnes' Pedigree Chart in Kokernot file
      Living with sister Augusta (m Milam Fitzgerald) in San Antonio in 1920 census; recent widow

      per Gardien letter to Barbara Jo (Gardien II file): Aunt Beck and Aunt Mollie had husbands more congenial to the brothers' fam;ilies than the rest had. Aunt Beck had no surviving children of her own to cause problems and Aunt Mollie's children were all well adapted to the family life at Big Hill. Aunt Beck was a fun-loving woman and happily dipped snuff to the end.
