Subject: Black Ankle, Texas
Dear TE, I sure wish you had more information on this town. I was looking through my Grandma's things today and found in her handwriting that she (Ellen Hazel Davis) and my Grandpa (Robert Oval Corbello) were married in Black Ankle on September 24, 1932. It would be interesting to have more information on this "town." Thank you. - Sandra Corbello, McClelland, Texas, August 20, 2006.
