Julia Gentry

1918 - 1949  (31 years)

• Name	Julia Gentry
  Born	18 May 1918	Alpine, Brewster County, Texas
  Gender	Female
  Died	27 Jul 1949	Alpine, Brewster County, Texas
  Notes	Ken Harvey indicates she died of the same thing that killed her mother. He might be mistaken, however, as her mother lived until the age ot 89. It was John's first wife that died young. It appears she was married and may have been the mother of the infant Mark Sale Chessman. She died a mere 10 days after he did, possibily from complications of childbirth. Brewster Co.
