WELCOME

This blog is currently being read by members of my (Jana Nichols Faulk) immediate family. As such, the photos are mainly of us as well. If you have found your way here and would send me photos, I would love to post extended family and friend photos as well. Please leave a comment on a post letting me know and I will get in touch with you.

Clarence Weldon Thompson

My mother's father was Clarence Weldon Thompson.
I do not know much about my grandfather.  
He was born in 1901 in Tyler, Texas and died at the age of 68 in 1969.
I do know that he graduated from The University of Texas as a civil engineer and worked in the oil and gas industry.
One of my aunts told me that Hortense said she married him, "Because he was such a good dancer."
I reckon that is as good a reason as any!
