Info on Sallie Alice Byers from OFGS

I got a letter back from the OFGS regarding any records they may have on Sallie Alice Byers. There was some helpful information in the letter regarding this line of research. The researcher also provided copies of other Byers and Herrings found in their records.

The 1916 Ft. Scott city directory has Mrs. Sallie A. Herring as a resident at 748 S. Hill. Della M. Herring is also listed at the same address with teacher listed as her occupation. Melvin M. Herring is also listed at the same address with "colr M L Drake & Co" listed after his name.

The 1920 US Census for Ft. Scott, 1st Ward, lists Sallie A. Herring, 55, widowed, living with her daughter Della Herring, 26, single, on Scott Ave.
