Mary Adeline
Harris, Oakwood Cemetery, Conroe, TX had an
unmarked grave until this summer, when my sister, Reta Gaye Vincent
McGarrahan, had a stone placed on the site, which is so identified with a
concrete curb, and contains the following remains: Mary Adeline Vincent,
husband Felix Vincent, daughters Ruby & Florence, and a niece Norma Bell
Atkinson. |
It is my understanding that the location & information were
confirmed by both a living son, Joe Frank Vincent and the cemetery management
prior to construction. Dates are on the stone. I would most certainly be
interested in making contact with anyone else researching either the Vincent
or Harris. Thanks,
Vardy Vincent
