• Notes

  Elizabeth Ann McCarty Cobb knew this family when she was a child. Her parents used to visit them at their home in Merit, Texas. She also remembers the Gulf station in Merit, across the railroad tracks on the road from Farmersville, where Will M. Coker used to work. They had a daughter, Bula Mae that lived with them and taught piano lessons for spending money. They also had as married son who lived across the street (perhaps Turman). Turman was the family of LuElla Mosley's first husband, Marion EdgarTurman, and their son, Marion Edgar Turman, Jr. Jr. was raised by Chester Allen McCarty who was LuElla Mosley's second husband. Their first son was Murrel Douglas McCarty. Thus Will M. Coker's sons were both named after Chester Allen's sons.
