Hello,

My name is Billy Joe Richardson. This letter, along with the names and date's have
been passed down to me from my Great Aunt, Evelyn Gallman. I don't know who all the
people listed are. If you see a name and date that you can help with, please let me
know. I would also like to get in touch with Mary Blakeman Smith Robertson, or her
descendant's so that I can compare note's.

Dear Mrs. Gallman,

Travis and Inez gave me your address. They tell me that you have a family Bible and
an old letter. I have Pliny Sadler Blacks Bible. He is my great-great
grandfather, and a brother to your great grandfather William F. Black. I have a
letter concerning the Sadlers. I think from a lady, married to a Robertson (no
connection with my husbands people, that we know of now). I am sending you a copy
of what is in the Bible, also a copy of the letter I have. Would you send me a copy
of what is in your Bible and of the letter? I am interested in all lines, not just
my direct line. I went with Travis, Nettie and Inez to the Lula Church, Tinnin
Cemetary etc. We had a wonderful afternoon. I had been searching for McClatchers
Cemetary, found out it is now Tinnin. Had been looking for Mary Gelina Blacks
grave, and there it was, been covered with dirt and grass all these years. We have
been to Tinnin so many times and didn't see it. My father is Lyman Willard Smith (
he is 87) son of Mattie Black and Joseph Riley Smith. I hope to meet you in the
near future. I have enjoyed knowing Travis and Inez so much. Not only have I
found out a lot about my ancestors, but working on the family tree I have met so
many people i might not have met otherwise. I want to get this in the 5:30 mail.
Looking forward to hearing from you.

Sincerely,

Mary Blakeman Smith Robertson
