It is a very interesting story I agree!!! The way I know this is I have a copy of their divorce record and Cecil is the only one mentioned as Ben's. But it does state there is another child. Wow and we thought our times were difficult. LOL.
Samanta does not have a head stone at Blackjack. I have a copy of the church roll and rosters and it states when she died.
I love a great mystery. That's what makes us all detectives of sorts in family history.
