 This
is the husband of Birdie Lou Watkins Bell. He is the father of Celia Bell
Williams (Mrs. Lloyd Williams).
Celia brought this information to Oklahoma
from Batesville, Arkansas, July 21, 1988. One of her cousins, Mrs. Leonard
(Flora Jane) McCormick shared some of it with her.
A complete genealogy is listed in Jerry
Young's book, "Pioneers of the Prairie."
Celia has two sons. One is Grant Williams,
who is a teacher in The Harrison, Arkansas school system. Grant and his
wife, Marianne, are both teachers. Celia has another son, Mark Williams,
who is a veterinarian in Batesville, Arkansas. The Jones characteristics
can be seen in Celia's small delicate bone structure. To see the strong
family resemblance between Warren Curtis Jones and Mark Williams was a
surprise. To see the man, Warren Curtis, seem to reappear forty years
after his death in his cousin's likeness was a very strange feeling.
One cannot even comprehend the size of this
family reaching over Arkansas. Jones, Beaver, Herbert, Hubbart are only
some of the root sir names and, of course, Bell. |
