Biography

• • In 2003 a Grandson of Eugene Roberts, Richard Parks, of Brasher, Missouri, found my name on internet and contacted me about his Roberts family in Mississippi. He knew his Grandfather was Eugene Roberts and Grandmother was Callie Graves. I gave him all the information I had at that time and gave him the telephone number of Linda Roberts Watts of Hattiesburg, Mississippi, as I knew she would follow up on it. I believe he was sick at that time and didn't know much about his family. He wrote me back giving me what info he had, and was so happy to have visited with his family. He died shortly after that.
