Hello from Ben & Adrienne Taylor

My brother, Terry, Fw'd your email to Ben and I asking if we had information on Alma Turner, Tom Caraway, and Ted Caraway. If you have a mailing address we have copied some material from our former research & sources that might be of interest to you. We were unable to email clear copies to you as most of our research & charts were done with pencil rather than ink.

Some interesting articles that we found while doing our research.... (back in the 1980's).... was from an old film file in the Portales Public Library. There wasn't any equipment to print articles from the old film file so we copied it by hand. We'll send you a few that we copied shown below:
