Reply to inquiry about Eric Klein Adkisson.He was a half brother of my father (John Wise Adkisson).He was born in Greenville, Tx.He lived within driving distance of Greenville, because he and my dad hunted birds (dove and quail) together.My day (who was a good marksman) used to say that he (was called Klein by my dad) was the best shot he'd ever seen.He and Lucille had one son (Eric Klein Jr.).The senior EricKleindied in the early 1930s of pneumonia.Lucille later moved with the son to Minnesota, where she established a name for herself as a teacher.Klein Jr. served in the Navy in WWII.He was my favorite 1st cousin.
