Correspondence:

I found this correspondence in the Weatherford Library and thought it might be of interest.

From correspondence with Florine Westerhover to Mrs. Jewel Lack.

"I need to add more information because I have just talked with Mrs. Jewel Lack, 410 Pine Street, Millsap, Texas 76066.  After seeing the name Lack as a married daughter's name of Levi M. Current, I decided to call Mrs.. Lack who I know by reputation as she writes an article "Millsap Mumbles" for the Weatherford Democrat regularly.  Millsap is a small town near Weatherford.

Mrs. Lack is a daughter-in-law of "Mattie" Lack who was listed as a daughter of Levi M. Current in his obituary.  Mrs. Lack said Mattie's name was Martha Ann and that she actually was a step-daughter of Levi M. Current, but never knew her father and was raised as his daughter.  It seems that Cecil Andrews and Levi were buddies in the Civil War and Mr. Andrews died during the war; but before he died, he gave a few personal items to Levi and asked him to give them to her wife, Emaline, if he ever met her when he got home.  Levi did look Emaline Andrews up (she had 4 daughters - the youngest of whom was Martha Ann (Mattie) - and a year or so later Emaline and Levi M. Current were married.  Jewel Lack believes that this was Levi M.'s only marriage, and that he and Emaline had 5 children after they were married.

Levi Current was in Palo Pinto County, Texas in 1860 with wife and children.  In 1870 he is in Stephens County, Texas with 3 more children, one named George Washington Current.
