Is this the same Arnette Belle Burleson is mentioned in the Burleson Family Association Bulletin Name Index:
ID: 43848; Volume: III; Number: 2; Page: 283

The news item about Belle's 70th birthday mentions a daughter, Mrs. L.O Jasper of Nacogdoches. Could the Leslie Jasper who gave information for her death certificate be Belle's son in law or grandson by her marriage to Leslie Ferguson? The 1900 census of Evergreen Twp, San Jacinto Co, Texas shows that she bore 8 children of whom 7 were living. That means the she must have had 5 children by Leslie Ferguson. [Dorothy Miller]
