Aquilla O. Ferguson-B-? Died 1975 @ Plainview, Tx. Married Mable Tye, they had one son Aquilla O. Ferguson.

Bob Ferguson, he lived around Jacksboro, Tx

Lewis or Louis Ferguson, also lived @ Jacksboro, both Bob and Lewis were oil men. All the above are gone to the great beyond and no where to get info. sure hope someone out there can make a connection. Mable Ferguson, once told me they were from Howellton, Ala. ?? where ever that is , I can't find it and that James was the only son in a family of 9 children. His father was a wealthy plantation owner who willed all he owned to his daughters and his slaves. Hoping for some help.
