Blanche Henley

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.

Blanche married Norman E. "Thaddius" Birdwell on 14 Nov 1900 in San Augustine County, Texas. Norman (son of James Andrew Birdwell and Mary Alice Cogburn) was born on 7 Aug 1881 in Sabine County, Texas; died on 28 Jan 1907 in Sabine County, Texas; was buried in Chinquapin Cemetery (Loggins Family Burial Ground), Macune, San Augustine County, Texas.
