7. | Evelyn S. Vines was born on 8 Nov 1921 in Zwolle, Sabine Parish, Louisiana; and died. Notes:
Gail Robinson, on her "Williams/McGee" Ver . 2008-07-22" tree on Rootsweb showed her as Evelyn Sarah Vines. The Texas Birth Index for daughter Helen Marie Bragg shows her as Evelyn Sosa Vines. The Texas Birth Index listing for younger daughter, Lidia Darlene Bragg simply shows her as Evelyn Vines. The obituary of her grandson, Timothy Allen Wilson, shows her as his surviving "grandmother, Evelyn S. Bragg of Milam"
An article about her 101rst birthday celebration, in The Sabine County Reporter, 23 November 2022, page 2, notes she was born and raised on a farm near Many, Louisiana. After marrying her husband George Yudell Bragg in 1939, she moved to Sabine County, Texas, where she has lived all of her adult life. Even at 101, she was said to be still active in going to church and canning jellies of all kinds. Her other favorite pass time is quilting.
The paper tried to get a count of how large her family was, but after a couple of attempts she just said "there's a bunch of us and it keeps growing."
Evelyn attributed her long life to "(living) ...a good life, no cussing, drinking or smoking."
