  Father	James David "Jim" Baldree,   b. 3 Jul 1867, Louisiana d. 19 Mar 1963, San Augustine, San Augustine County, Texas (Age 95 years)

  Marriage	6 Jan 1901  [3, 4]
  	As with the FindAGrave memorial page for his first wife and their eldest son, the page for J. D. Baldree has photos of two markers for her and his second wife, Ella. One appears to be a handmade cement marker, with handwritten/handengraved death information. The older marker is hand inscribed as follow: J. D. Baldree, Born July 3, 1867 Mar 19, 1963 Ella Baldree Born Sept 1, 1878 Died July 25, 1959 In God We Trust It is engraved in all capital letters, and the letter N is write backwards in each case. It appears both of the original markers were installed sometime after 1963, when Robert died. The second is a presumably newer pink granite marker, and it is a double headstone for James David Baldree and Ella Gray Baldree. A Masonic Symbol is engraved above James's name. The same dates of birth and death are shown.
