Vickie (MCGuirt) Carris
Lena, was a graduate of Trinity University at Waxahachie, and taught school in Coleman County for two years. She then attended the New York Biblical Seminary, where she prepared for foreign missionary service. In 1912 she went to India and served under the Presbyterian Mission Board for 36 years. She was granted permission to live in India eleven years after retirement, as she helped care for the untainted children of leper parents. She returned to the states in 1960 at age 77 to retire. She died April 19, 1972, and is buried in Santa Anna.
