    Subject: Re: Stella

    I live in Louisiana. My daddy, Jimmy Leroy Bankston was Stella's son. Betty Jean Bankston Bryant..now deceased and Charles Richard Bankston, deceased, were his sister and brother. Stella is buried in Henderson, Nevada in an unmarked grave. She died a few years before I was born. I am 39. I have a picture of her and my grandfather ...would you like me to send it? I don't know much about her family. I believe she was an only child. She was married a few times and moved around a lot besides that. She had green eyes and brown hair with a fair complexion.
