Notes for EMANUEL JARET LUMAN:
1920 Shelby County, Texas, census: Jarrett, Nettie

[12-7-1999] from Jimmy Allen Hicks; Uncle John is right, he (Jaret) loved his whiskey.  He would get a bottle and hide it from Mit, that is what we called our grandmother, in the chicken house.  She would find it sooner or later and then go up one side of Jaret and back down the other side.  He would just find another hiding place.

Notes for JOHN WILLIAM "SAMBO" LUMAN:
John says his daddy could kill a 5th of whiskey quicker than anybody he ever saw.  Uncle Jaret was everyone's favorite uncle.  He was jolly and full of mischief.  He gave many of the nieces and nephews their nicknames, including "Aunt Monkey".  One time, he sent John to the barbershop to deliver some whiskey.  John stuck it down the waist of his pants, and just as he got in sight of the barber shop, the bottle slipped down the leg of his breeches and fell out on the ground and broke.  John says he just kept walking like nothing had happened and went on back home and told his daddy.  Asked if he got a flogging, he said his daddy said, "It's happened to me before."
