Have you ever wondered what became of blood relatives? Great-great uncle Jim Whitlock married a woman in the early 1900's, but she left him. I have a short letter to him from, Teda, one of the daughter's from the marriage. At that time Teda, her mother, and sister were living in the Indian Territory of Oklahoma. The letter really has a sad tone of estrangement. I found Teda and her family on an old U.S. Census, but they disappeared after that. It is sad when we lose touch with family.
Here's an undated photo of Teda, her sister, and mother.
