According to her death certificate, her parents were George Williams and Mary Bever.  The marriage record also noted below might be her parents.  Do you know the names of any of her siblings?  There are several other TX deaths listing parents as George Williams and Mary Bever/Beever/Beavers- most of those children were born in AR - including Robert Sims Williams, Massie Donnie Hughes, Jennie Alice Compton?
