I first heard of Forrest BLACK from a memory of EllaVie Black WHITE b 1910, daughter of Stephen Marcus, son of Rigdon Leroy, son of George Washington BLACK. And I was trying to connect them to GEORGE LIDDON.
Apparently, with new information from Gary, this family is from Columbus.
Brothers Wm Henegar and Columbus BOTH named their first son GEORGE!
There are lots of George s, Rigdon s and William s in the BLACK generations!
At the BLACK REUNION Jun 22,23 2002 in Elk City, Beckham, Oklahoma, Mahota Maxine BLACK HAPEMAN daughter of George Liddon BLACK, son of Wm Henegar BLACK said she knows this family very well and has spent the night with several in Bethany, Oklahoma. George Liddon and George Walter would be lst cousins and the children lst cousins once removed.
