I'm told Earl and Lela were killed in a car/train collision in 1930's
The family moved to California after WWII.

Booker/Julia's children were:
Booker,Jr.(TX)
Robert-my father, Doris and Joan (OH)

Booker Sr. spent time in West Virginia, I don't know when or where. He played semi-pro football and did some boxing, again I don't know when or where. I need help with this!!!!
