    Thanks for your email. Yes, Deward was married twice. Deward is my uncle, my father's oldest brother. He was married to Audrey and they had three children, Edith Ellen, Jack and John. After Audrey died, he married Virginia. (I only knew Virginia as my aunt and my Grandmother, Edith, lived with my Uncle Dode (this is what we called him) until she died. I don't know who Edith Cash is. This may be a child born to Virginia and Deward and died young. Billie was Virginia's son before the marriage. Katherine is Uncle Deward and Virginia's child. Hope this helps clear things up. Let me know if you have anymore questions and I will try to answer them.

    Happy New Year
