I honestly don't know. I know that I had just the name "Snooker Collie" as
a husband to Inez Ruminer. It all just didn't jive with all the Snooks,
Henry J.s and Henry Jacksons. This is one of those times when the 1920
census could come in real handy.

Maybe I'll get some time to utilize the online census images that I have
spoken of on previous posts. If I find out anything, I give you a shout.

Oh, I'll keep a lookout for Modess Langston, too. I unfortunately didn't
have a thing on any of William S. Langston's brothers. But, you could be
right about her belonging to one of them. The woman that knew so much about
your Will Langston never has gotten back with me. She was going to ask a
relative about where "Will" (as she referred to him) had ended up going.
Maybe later we will hear from her.
