We say howdy to you in Oklahoma and Texas, aloha to you from Honolulu, buenos d�as to you in Tamaulipas and otros lugares donde se habla espa�ol, or even maayong adlaw to you in Southern Philippines.
The aim of this web site is to make contact with other members of the Walter B. Wier family or his ancestors. He was born in 1820 in Georgia and died in 1866 in Lampasas, Texas. His widow, Cynthia Shockley, was also born in Georgia in 1820 and died in Lampasas in 1908.
Walter B. and Cynthia had a son named John A. Wier in Georgia in 1850.
John A. married Georgia Irvin, born ca. 1856 in Alabama.
They engendered my grandfather William Bell Wier who died in Altus Oklahoma within two months of the death of his mother, both in 1911.
William Bell Wier married Lillian Wealthy French. They had a slew of children, among whom was my father John Butler Wier. They lived in Tamaulipas, Mexico, until about 1910 (when the revolution broke out) and then moved back to Texas and Oklahoma.
After William Bell died, Grandma Lillian Wealthy supported the family by teaching school.
John Butler Wier was born in 1901 in Altus, Oklahoma Territory, and died in 1952 in Florence, Arizona. He married Eva Mabel Williams, born in 1898 in Sallisaw, Indian Territory (Oklahoma).
They, in turn, engendered me, Donald Lorenzo, the fifth of nine children, born in 1930.
I was married about 1950 in Yuma, Arizona, to a woman whose name I cannot remember, divorced in Florence, Arizona in 1952. I married again in 1963 in Nogales, Sonora, Mexico to Eva Geary and divorced in 1980 in Florence, Arizona.
I married Rebecca Bation July 6,1985, in Tanjay, Negros Oriental, Philippines. Our son, Donald Lorenzo Wier, II, was born July 1, 1986 in Dumaguete, Negros Oriental, Philippines. Our daughter Lois Estelle was born May 29 in Apple Valley, California.
We'd shore like to hear from y'all.
Si alguien de la Blalock Colony de Tamaulipas quisiera communicarse con nosotros, nos gustar�a.
