I am the grandson of Burroughs Allen Waltrip Sr. He was married to Jessie Anna Belle Johnson on 12/12/1926. He left her and their two small sons to run away with a female evangelist named Kathryn Kuhlman. Than had a church called the Radio Chapel in Mason City, IA. They were married for a short time, but the congregation disapproved of the marriage. She eventually divorced him. He left the ministry, and wrote 2 short books. He then became a salesman selling concrete liners for caskets. That was in Kansas City, MO or KS. That is the last our family has been able to discover. He is my grandfather, and would like to know what happened to him.
