Research Interest: My grandmother was Vera Belle Watson and born in West Texas near Shamrock. She was married to John B. Miles of Anadarko,Oklahoma. I would like to find out anything about her family. I remember that she has family members named - Henry, James, and Clayton. She was one of several children but the only daughter. Vera Belle's mother passed away when she was 4 years old after giving birth to triplets. Her father lived into the 1940's and did not remarry. She was raised by her aunt is West Texas nea r Shamrock. In high school she played basketball and graduated from a business school as a secretary but worked as a teller until she met my grandfather. Her brother Henry and his wife, Bess owned the Kandy Kitchen in Anadarko, Oklahoma. Any inf ormation is greatly appreciated.
