Ella Mae Sheeks
My cousin and I are searching the name of Ella Mae Sheeks?
She was adopted to a George and Minerva Dutton.
The only information that I have is just that, and I was wondering if it is possible that she
could be a sister to Alice Sheeks?
She was adopted about the same year/years or so of Alice.
She died August 4th 1960, in Orange County California.
