George & Minnie Ruth Jeter
George Truett Jeter, Sr. was born 10 Dec 1919 in Colfax, Van Zandt County, Texas and was delivered by his father who was a doctor. He was a World War II veteran of the U.S. Army Air Corps and was married to Minnie Ruth Mayberry. They had 3 natural children and adopted one daughter. Their two sons both died by the age of 50. George died in Waco, McLennan County, Texas on 5 Mar 2003.
Minnie Ruth Mayberry was born 5 Jan 1922 in Little Hope, Van Zandt County, Texas, the daughter of John Hugh Mayberry and Elvie Ann Parsons. She died at home in Hewitt, McLennan County, Texas on 21 Oct 2008 and they are buried together here in Cox Cemetery next to her parents.
They were also third cousins which I don't think they realized until after they were married. I only found that out during my genealogy research.
