Beard, Anna Combestd. Jun 30 1930
Mabel V. Combest b. Nov 12, 1910 d. Jun 28, 1938.
I belief this woman was the wife of William Hill Combest. He definitely lived in this city. If she is his wife that died at a young age, she had two daughters and one son. The two daughters (one was named Barbara I think) moved to AZ to live with their mother's relatives. These children are living at this time as far as I know. The son, Wallace, remainded with his father who married Octa Norma Ray. This couple had one son William E and twin daughters, one of whom died at birth and is also buried at Citizen's cemetery. Charlotte Kae born April 17, about 1942 was either stillborn or died during delivery. They were born at home and the doctor arrived after the delivery. Their mother thought that Charlotte would have survived had the doctor been present. Who knows. The other twin, Carol Rae was fine and lived until 2003 at which time she died with a brain tumor at Midland TX.
Hill had at least one brother, Cecil, who married a woman named Sue. They had two sons, one named Park.
This is all the information I have so it will not be helpful to ask me anything else.
