Sue my father's father is the man in question?I was always told as a child that he was Ernest Tubb half brother and that he was adopted from an orphanage.The papers were burned and everything destroyed from theorphanage.It was somewhere in East Texas. They have always made it sound as though Ernest was adopted too, just to a different family, however, since he is a celebrity and no one has ever said anything about it in any biographies or anything I had dismissed it.
My grandfathers adopted mother's name was Brown, supposedly, (I guess from a second marriage)His last name as my maiden name is Rogers.I have no idea really.You see there just is no information where they are concerned. None of them have been to school above second grade and I have not been in contact with them for years.I know quite abit about my mom's side of the family and was just curious of my roots.I am almost positive that my grandfather is at least 1/2 Native American of some sort.Actually there is a resemblence to Ernest Tubb.I didn't want anything or recognition from the Tubb famly I just have a facination with Native American History, I have great-grandmother and a great-grandfather that are full blood Indian.
