Hello everyone,

I'm new to the list, so thought I'd give a brief introduction.

I'm Jo Autrey and I live in Dallas, Texas. You are cordially invited to
visit my personal webpage and see if you can find any connections. No all
materials have been placed on line, this will take a while, but it is a
beginning. If you find a connection, or need more information, please
contact me privately.

Alma had one sister, Minnie Elizabeth, b. 1881, m. bro. of Elbert E. Autrey,
Cisero "Pink" Autrey in 1904 in Bowie Co. and had 5 children: Horace, 1906;

Marvin Roy, 1918. Minnie had two sons by a previous marriage: Alvis
Dickerson, 1904 and Crutis L. Dickerson, 1905.

Alma had two brothers:

had 7 children: Robert Eugene, 1911; Edna Pauline, 1913; Elsie Pauline,

various Texas counties.

There is much to be uploaded, so visit often. The only information I have
personally researched is on the above family. The rest of the informaton on
the Endsley family was generously shared with me by a family member in Cass
Co. Until recently, we believe our Endsley line was from Andrew George
Endsley. This is incorrect, as we know from the Cass Co. relative, we
descend from Leander Endsley. His wife's first name is Mary, and while some
think it may be Couch, this has not been proven.
Other corrections will be made as information is supplied.

Other surnames connected to Endsley: Stinson, Bowman, Hiett, Winkler, Hunt,
Raper, and others.
