Need information for Walter Lee Mahan and wife Rosa Ella Cates Mahan and descendants that lived in the Wichita, and Olney areas of Texas

There were no death or birth information in Young County for either Walter Lee or Rose Ella Cates Mahan.

Since you chose not to tell me the names of their descendants, I cannot ascertain on whether there is information about their descendants in the County records.

Birth records are sealed until the 50th anniversary of one's birth. Death records are sealed until the 25th anniversary of one's death. They are not available for public use.

NOT RELATED TO CATES OR MAHAN
