My father was Clem Watson. Are you by any chance related to his sister, Nettie Stevenson? I have been searching for any family history for several months now with no luck. I was told by my dad that my granddad Watson's name was Lewis Washington Watson. My grandmother's name I believed to be Mollie Edna Hunt Counts. My dad (Clem) was born in Alma, AR and his dad died in 1922, after returning to AR from TX. I did not know just where they went, but I guess it was to Van Buren County. Please E-mail me and I will share what information I have. Thanks. lvn@web-access.net

But Lucius is spelled Liecius.And Molly is Mary Hunt Counts Also my grandmother was born July 28,1909 and died July 1,1994.I just went to a Watson reunion on Sept 3rd of this month at Potosi,Tx. They have one every year on Labor day weekend. Hope this helps you some.

Nettie was my Grandmother.
Lucius M Watson lived in Van Buren Co prior to moving to Crawford Co Arkansas where Clem was born. Write me directly and we'll swap stories/info.

I am still researching this side of my family because my paternal grandmother was adopted at the age of about 2 so I have hit a brick wall. I do have a lot of info on some of my dad's line. Lucius Marshall Watson was my paternal grandfather. If I can help you in anyway email me at pld1945@web-access.net. My name is Peggy Dobbins. My maternal grandmother's name was Mollie Edna Hunt.

Oldest Daughter (Claudia B.- 1887) born to Lucius M. and Eliza Jane West is my grandmother.

Claudia married James L. Rhoden (or Roden) in 1907.

My parents (Bill and Jaudene Rhoden) have LM Watson and Eliza West's Marriage License.

Thanks,
