Daughter John William Ragsdale & his first wife, Mary Alice Bailey (DC identifies them as John Ragsdale & Ellen Clark; which I believe is in error).

4th great-granddaughter of Godfrey I and Mary Ragsdale.

Half siblings (same father, different mother):
Ransom Marion Ragsdale
James Henry Ragsdale
Oscar Otis Ragsdale
Dollie Belle (Ragsdale) Tracy

Married 1) Thomas Monroe McWhirter, August 24, 1899 in Delta Co., TX.
Children:
Lollie May
Cuma Arvel
Thomas M

Married 2) Charles Herman Armstrong, probably about 1919 as they are listed on the 1920 census.
Child:
Charles Herman, Jr.

Widow, died of pulmonary tuberculosis in East Texas Tuberculosis Hospital where she had been confined for the past month. Usual residence: Rt. 1, Omaha, Morris Co., TX. Death Certificate # 12986, informant: Medical Records.

October 24, 2011, note from Susan Sain, "I looked at every head stone and was not able to find your request. There are many unmarked graves and damaged headstones in this cemetery. I'm sorry that I could not help you." I appreciate her time & efforts. To keep another from duplicating the search, the stone photo request has been removed.

Many thanks to jlowery000 for posting Ella's obituary.
