Ev

I'll do my best to find the photograph of Ed Hays and Rebecca
Potts........and yes, I think that she was the finale for him........married
December 11, 1890.

I was just like you.......had not put "two and two together" and once I did,
I had to smile. Just what you wanted, wasn't it? To be kin to me......or
almost! LOl

It's got to be here somewhere in this mess of papers, etc. But, when I find
it, I'll be sure and send it your way.

> Hi Bernie,
> YOu know.....I NEVER put that together before.....go figure! Does that
mean we are getting "closer" to being kin!...boy ALL of Arkansas IS kin to
each other. My g-grandmother India Anna Hays had a sister named Dixie who
married my ggg grandfather Washington T. Forrest! The circle NEVER stops!
LOL
> Wasn't Rebecca Potts Langston, Edmund Hays 3 or 4th wife? Was she his LAST
wife?
> ....and YES I would LOVE to have a copy of that picture. Sharron sent me
one of the Three Hays brothers.
> BTW....did any of the Langstons go to Texas. I have a book that was put
together in ERA, TEXAS and there is a picture of "The Langston
Boys".....they sure are a good looking bunch.....very young in the picture.
Thought it might be something someone would want.....I have looked through
the book and so far, have found no reference to them. Some of my Waggoners
were there after they left IZard County.
