  Notes	Although Guy was the youngest boy, he ran the ranch after his father's death, and brought his bride to live at the family ranch home with his mother, three sisters, and one brother. My mother, living and bearing children in a home that was not her own, did not have an easy time during her early married like. She and my father did not have a home of their own until the brothers and sisters moved to San Antonio some years later. I remember my father as a stern, quiet man who left the routine disciplining of the children to Mother. However, if things got out of hand it required only one word from him to straighten the children out, and I do not recall that he ever whipped one of the children to enforce his discipline. He stood tall and straight until the day of his death, and never did one word of complaint pass his lips. Although he was never openly affectionate with his children, he quietly devoted his life to their welfare. His reputation for honesty and integrity was never questioned, and he was generous to a fault in helping his neighbors who were in trouble. He had no outside diversion or interests other than his ranch and family, and on the ranch he was known as "cap" or "Mr. Guy" by all the ranch hands and neighbors. He was an excellent horseman and roper and took particular pride in his cutting horses. [sic]. In 1932, when mother's health began to fail, after the birth of Ula Jean, Dad built a home for her in San Antonio, where she could enjoy a drier climate and be closer to dr. Ralph. For a number of years Dad drove back and forth between San Antonio and the ranch, but at last had to give up and stay in San Antonio. This sedentary life did not seem to agree with him, because he did not live many years after moving to San Antonio. - Home on the Double Bayou by Ralph Semmes Jackson.
