General Notes: Husband - Hiram Joseph STERLING
=================================================================================================

I'm not actually related to Hiram but his story fascinates me. He's a distant first cousin to my
children. He had two (known) children and it doesn't look like he raised either of them but I
don't hold it against him. Either he or Mr Hinkle was a great story-teller. Hiram had no sister
named Edith who married a movie star unless it was very late in life.

Killed a man from Teague in 1910 over a dog fight in which the other man's dog was killed. [Mr
Whitt was actually killed in 1907 (from his g-grandchild).]

[See article on the Hiram Sterling - Nina Stephens sheet.]

General Notes: Wife - Goldie GRIFFITH
=================================================================================================

Goldie and her second husband in Nederland, Colorado, in 1920.
Timothy Cameron         Head    M       38      Missouri age blank
Goldie Cameron          Wife    F       37      Illinois age 13
Russel C Sterling       S-son   M        9      Colorado [says son of wife]
Tim is a ranchman. They actually have a boarder named Harry Walters, age is right for our Harry
but he has a 13 year old Harry Walters with him.

Her maiden name is taken from the 1900 census in St Louis with her mother but Allie says she
has only been married 2 years.
