Adrian married Lilian Arthrene Eddins. Lilian (daughter of Larkin Chivers Eddins, Sr. and William Hattie Tatum) was born on 16 Jun 1910 in Manning, Angelina County, Texas; died on 11 Apr 1974 in Jasper, Jasper County, Texas. [Group Sheet] [Family Chart]

Notes:

Dolores Burton shows "Norman E. (Thaduis) Birdwell was the ninth child of James Birdwell and NANCY Cogburn. He was born Aug. 07, 1881 in Sabine County Texas." Jame's wife is listed on census and other records as Mary, however, and not Nancy.

David Pike writes that Norman died of pneumonia after complications from severe burns received in a fire.

Norman married Blanche Henley on 14 Nov 1900 in San Augustine County, Texas. Blanche was born on 16 Aug 1881 in Texas; died on 28 May 1914 in Sabine County, Texas; was buried in Rosevine Cemetery, Rosevine, Sabine County, Texas. [Group Sheet] [Family Chart]

Notes:

She was married first to a Birdwell, and was later the second wife of Joseph Fuller. They had two children together, and sadly Blanche died of tuberculosis some five years after her second marriage. Her stepsons, Price and Brooks, died of this as well. Her step-daughter, Ethel was also infected, and was confined to a tuberculosis santitarium in the Dallas area as a young woman. Ethel survived, however, living into her eighties.
