His son Paul Norwood ANDERSON was by James' 1st marriage to wife unknown.
His children James T Jr, Gerald Michael, Maurine Theresa, and Robert Allen were by his 2nd wife Margaret Mary [O'GRADY] per the TX birth index online.

James' sisters Willie Louise [Anderson] BATES and Rose Mary [Anderson] Stanley are deceased; his brother Charles Lenoir ANDERSON is also deceased.

??? Is this the son of Maxim and Margaret ??? I would sure like to get his obituary to find out but where from ???

I have not yet verified if Mrs Katherine Louise [SIRAK] Anderson was the daughter of Maxin SIRAK and Margaret [Unknown] and my only reason for thinking so is because I could not find another Catherine/Kathryn [SIRAK] on the 1930 US census...........and because her husband's nieces said she and her children "moved back east" after her husband died.......

At this time, I have no additional information on Catherine/Kathryn [SIRAK] Anderson or her two children.
