    Winnie Alice Green was the daughter of Abner Jefferson and Elizabeth Ann Coxsey Green. I have done extensive research and the two Green families are not related.

    Winnie married Ward Beecher "Beech" Green on 18 Oct 1907 in Robert Lee, Coke Co, Texas and together, they had 4 children: Fines Archie (1908-1937), Felicia Ann (named after her Grandma Mammy 1910-1947), Riley Childress (1913-1986), and William "Billie" Prue Green (1916-1947).

    In 1929 Beech had died while the family lived in Maricopa Co, Arizona. Winnie and her children then moved to live near the rest of the relatives in California. Winnie's 1930 Census shows that Felicia had left and married, but the boys were still at home while she worked as a laundress.

    Wish I had pictures, but have found her Obit in the LA Times and the Cemetery was kind enough to send me maps of where she was interred at. Thank you all so much!
