Hi

My greatgrandfather Thomas H. Reagan was married to Mary Elizabeth Shelburne, born 1877 somewhere in Texas (unknown). I do know from the census that in 1880 she resided in Fort Worth with her parents M. R. (Marcellus) Shelburne, M. A. (Margaret?) Shotwell, her uncle E. W. H. Shelburne and a baby brother. Her father M.R. was born in Kentucky. In 1870 he was attending school in Plano TX. His occupation then was listed as trader. My grandfather came to live with his maternal grandparents the Shelburnes when they lived in Gainsville when his father passed away in 1910 (Mary passed away previously date not known). He remembers M.R. as a vetrinarian. The Shelburnes dislike THomas Reagan so much they never refered to him and always called my grandfather Otto. We do not known his given name although later in life he used his father's name Thomas. M.R. Shelburne is buried in Lawton OK and has a beautiful tombstone. At the end of his life he was a doctor for the indians on the reservation in Lawton. This is just about all the info I have. If this sounds familiar please drop me a line.
