By Donald Lindley November 13, 2002 at 04:31:47

I have a Henry C Callis from the Post area of Garza Co., TX, whom has a daughter was the mother of one of my Aunt's husbands, Boley Don Sullivan 1924.

I have tried to trace Henry Callis with census, I will attempt a for a prepared document.

Don’s Notes:Since Mary was to have given birth to six children and six are living, and there are seven children listed, I am assuming that Frances is child of first marriage (Mentioned in 1910 census.)I also place her as the most probable mother to Boley Sullivan.
