Notes:

Ruby Boyett Burkett's website has the following story about her father: "He was born in Newton County and remained there for most of his life. At some point in his life, his brother Johnny who lived in Elizabeth, Louisiana helped him to get a job there. After a short time George told his brother, "well, I'm going back to Texas---the sun don't rise and set in Louisiana".
