Notes

Note H108Altha Belle Hartley Watson was probably named after her mother's, Lillian Virginia Parisher, sister - Altha Leota Parisher Whitt.
Altha Belle married Willis at a very young age, she was not quite 16 years old. She lived with her husband, Willis Ward Watson, in San Saba, Texas where all their children were born. I talked with Mommy Belle in the latter time of her life asking about the "old" days. She said that they didn't have a car until her kids were 6 or 7 years, they used a horse and hack ( a short wagon). She told me that she use to take Elma, Zola Ward, and Wilbern when they were young in a horse and buggy to see her parents who lived in Cherokee, a few miles south of San Saba. After they got a car, an old Ford, when the car approached a hill, all the kids had to get out of the car and help push it up the hill.
After their children were grown and away from home, Mommy Belle and Papa Willis moved to College Station, Texas, where their daughter, Madge and her husband, Cliff, lived. They then moved to Clyde, Texas. Mommy Belle in 1954 then returned to her home town of San Saba after her husband, Willis Ward Watson, died. She lived there until she moved to Denison and stayed with her daughter, Madge and Cliff Maddox.
Mommy Belle died at Care Inn, a nursing home in Denison, Texas. She suffered a stroke three years earlier in 1987 and was admitted to the nursing home at that time. Mommy Belle is buried at the San Saba Cemetery in San Saba, Texas, her childhood home, beside her husband, Willis Ward Watson.
