I'm looking for any tidbit of information about Lucy Preston SANDERS, born 17 June 1871, or her husband James Alton "Jim" ASHBY, who was born 10 August 1864. I don't have their birthplaces, but her Bible appears to say they were married 11 Feb 1885 in Franklin County. This date could be an error, as she would have been less than 14 years old. One or both may have lived at Nacogdoches at one time. They later lived in Mason, Menard, and Williamson counties. Lucy's father was Lloyd Preston SANDERS.

William Jefferson KENNEDY (W.J.)was born in TX in Jan 1862. I know the names of two of his brothers: Joseph and Doss. Their mother was living in W.J. KENNEDYs household at the time of her death after October 1907 but before the 1910 census. The mother's name was most probably Addie, maiden name unknown, however W.J.'s death certificate identifies her as "Vinnia Gable, b. AR" and his father as "William KENNEDY" b. Ireland. The death certificate information was given by his youngest daughter who admits to having paid little-to-no attention to family history information. I would like information on these KENNEDYs.

Other information:
I added the uncompromising photo of him as a School Board Member from the 1954 Bogata HS Classmates yearbook. The other board members are mild and totally unlike him in demeanor.
So, now I am curious. "Living with Boss Suggs" seems like the title of a book/article or diary entry, not just a Census notation.
Was he a Klan plant on the local board or something? There are only him and his wife Lora on FaG. No offspring listed and no indication that she is a Simmons. His given name seems to be Herman and his parents are listed.
