Jesse married Stella Mays about 1896. Stella (daughter of George Washington Mays and Mary Elizabeth Iles) was born in Sep 1877 in Sabine County, Texas; died in Sep 1936; was buried in Lott Cemetery, Sabine County, Texas. [Group Sheet] [Family Chart]

Notes:

White and Toole show that she died ca 1935. Could she have actually died before 1910? Her husband, Jesse Jacks, is listed as widowed as of the 1910 census, married in 1920 but without Stella in the home, and widowed in 1930. They may have simply seperated, as they share a double gravemarker at the Lott Cemetery, and her date of death on this is shown as Sept. 1936.

Notes:

His grave marker reads EDD WOOD, 1873-1917, Gone But Not Forgotten

Notes:
