Bill Fossett San Saba Co. Texas
This name is not connected to any of my lines, but I came across an interesting story while doing a search of events in San Saba Co TX.& thought it might help someone who had "lost" an ancestor in the late 1800s.
During the Depression, there was a WPA project that collected stories from "old-timers".One of these stories contained a narrative about Jim Miller in San Saba. Jim Miller's real name was Bill Fossett. There are no dates for reference about when the events took place, but at the time the story was written, Bill Fossett's son, Lew Fossett, was working at the post office in Tulsa, Oklahoma.
This sight has a great search engine.
