     LETTER FROM LAUDIE TABB SHELL to MAX TIDMORE dtd. Aug 29, 1971

Houston, Miss August 29, 1971:

My dear Mr. Tidmore,
You will have to excuse my writing, as my eye sight and hearing are both failing, but I am thankful that my mind is still clear and my health fairly good. I am 94 years old.
I certainly can identify Lula Tabb. She was the wife of my oldest Brother born and lived here in Houston until after her husband William Austin Tabb died and all the children were grown, then moved to Memphis to live with her oldest daughter, Mrs. J. A. Fulmer. She was totally blind when she died in her mid mineties. My father was Daniel Davidson Tabb, son of John Hugh Tabb (not Henry).
The Alexander Tabb (Uncle Sandy) who moved from Miss to Mount Pleasant, Texas was my grandfather's brother. He also had another brother living here, an itinerant preacher with two sons Ben and Joe
I think we have a pretty accurate chart of the Tabb family but I don't have a copy. Jim Hugh is out of town but when he comes back I will give him the chart you sent me and can compare it with ours and then contact you if there is any need to. I know he will be gald to get the chart.
Thanks for writing me.

Sincerely,
LAUDIE TABB SHELL
