MY GRANDMOTHER WAS ADOPTED WHEN SHE WAS THREE YEARS OLD. SHE WAS THE YOUNGEST OF 9 CHILDREN. HER BIRTH NAME WAS MURL. SHE REMEMBERED AN OLDER BROTHER BY THE NAME IS JAMES OR JIM. SHE CALLED HIM JIM. HIS LAST KNOWN WHERE ABOUTS WAS IN TEXAS IN THE LATE 1920'S OR EARLY 1930'S. SHE WAS RAISED IN OR AROUND THE RUSSELLVILLE, MAGAZINE ARKANSAS AREA. HAVE NO IDEA AS TO WHAT HAPPENED TO THE OTHER 7 CHILDREN. THE FATHER WAS SUPPOSE TO HAVE DIED A FEW MONTHS BEFORE MY GRANDMOTHER WAS BORN. AND HER MOTHER WAS ASSUMED TO HAVE DIED WHEN SHE WAS ABOUT 3 YEARS OLD. DOES THIS STORY SOUND FAMILIAR TO YOU.
