Innis Family Tree<\/h3>\n

Whooohoooo \u2013 a family member has gotten in touch and is now helping out! Kate (not her real name) is a descendant of Thomas Ballard Innis and Loula Roberts, and lucky for me, a fellow researcher. Kate recently contacted me and is willing to share some of her evidence concerning the family. She has cleared up a few of my questions and I\u2019ll cover those now.<\/p>\n

Thomas Ballard Innis and Lula Roberts married<\/a> on 2 January 1903 in Grayson County, Texas.1<\/sup> Notice that she spells her name as Lula not Loula.<\/p>\n

Also provided was a Certificate of Birth<\/a> from Texas for Edith Sally Innis, born 2 December 1905.2<\/sup> This is a record of birth that includes the affidavits attesting to the birth. Grayson County, Texas, did not register births before 1906 so there was no \u201coriginal\u201d birth certificate. This birth is sworn to by her mother Lula C. Prescott (Lula\u2019s last marriage).<\/p>\n

Edith first married<\/a> Harold W. Perry on 13 April 1924 in Denver, Colorado.3<\/sup> They divorced within a few years.
\nEdith next married Dr. Ralph Cowles \u2013 they eventually divorced.
\nEdith\u2019s last marriage was to Royal R. Griffith.<\/p>\n

I can\u2019t thank Kate enough for the information she is providing \u2013 there will be more to come in future posts. I\u2019m really looking forward to working with her.<\/p>\n
