Thank you so much for the info. Mr. Hicks was my mother's
great uncle, and she lived on the Hicks Ranch when she was a young girl. She went to school on horseback to the Newark School. Mom is still living in Ft.Worth and I bet she could tell you some things about Mr.Hicks from that era.

I will tell her sbout your efforts to find info. and see if she wants to talk with you sometime,if you are interested.
