A little bio...
Bmom's name is Juanita (Cathey) Perez Adams, married Oscar Perez in Houston 1/19/34, had Mary Ann in '36, divorced 2/27/39, married William C. Adams 7/17/47, divorced 7/8/50 in Ft. Worth, had me in '51. ("Preferred not to name the father.") Microfilm birth index listed me as inf of Juanita C. Adams. After '51 haven't been able to track anyone down. I have an unnamed paternal 1/2 brother - no records of Willie C. or Oscar having other children have been found. So at this point, Mary Ann appears to be my only possibility for contact. Her husband is deceased and they only had the one son. I've had a couple of volunteers take a look at city directories for Houston for the early 50's with no luck (but I "half-suspect" that the job was not very thorough.
She was married and divorced twice before having me and she could have remarried any number of times since. Voter reg and DMV searches have been blank, but then again, I haven't been able to find anyone that knows where, or if, 20 to 30 year old records like that exist. Her mother died in '18 and her dad in 1930.
Juanita had a brother that was 39 when I was born, he would be a Cathey. She was born in Temple so I'd guess he was too. Another brother died in '41 at 35. So I guess I should start researching them more than I have. I've been able to get photos of her parents' headstones but no other history on the family as yet. Her father remarried and had a son but no idea when or where he remarried.
Snow's coming down pretty steady so it looks like I'm going to be busy in the morning...another three hours...so I'd best get some sleep....
Later, and thanks for chippin' in!!!
Peace,
Jim
