==================================
George Anderson lived at 1211 Spring Street, Mena Arkansas at the time of death. The funeral was paid for by P L Grant, son-in-law,
and by order of Geo N. Autry, son-in-law, and was interned at Pine Crest Cemetery.
He was a saw mill worker and died of Pul and TB (Record of funeral 28 Feb 1935 , Beasley Funeral Home of Mena, Arkansas.)
==================================
Mena, Ark Newspaper - Obit ran March 7, 1935
George Anderson, aged local resident, died Wednesday, Feb 27, at 9 o'clock at the the home of his daughter, Mrs George M. Autrey at 1211 Spring street.
Funeral services were held Thursday afternoon at 2 o'clock at the home with Rev. John T. Davis officiating.
Interment was at Pine Crest Memorial park with arrangements by the Beasley Funeral home.
Mr. Anderson was 76 years of age at the time of his death. He was born in Caddo Parish, Louisiana.
He is survived by his wife, Mrs Etta Mae Anderson,
two sons, Thomas Anderson of Plain Dealing, La., Robert Anderson of Kilgore, Texas
and six daughters, Mrs. Frank Westbrook
and Mrs. T.G. Westbrook of Kilgore, Texas,
Mrs. Jimmy Grant and Mrs. R.O. Jenkins of Norphlet,
Mrs Joe Campbell of Louisville, Ky., and Mrs G.M. Autrey of Mena.
==================================
As of Feb 2010, it is commonly believed the obit spouse of Etta Mae is incorrect as Etta Mae is daughter (spouse of R.O. Jenkins)
And only explanation for why Caddo Par, LA was given as birth is that "Widow" Westbrook is probable from Caddo Par, LA.
Just bad information all around in Funeral Records, Death Certifcate incomplete, and Obit. At the time, no one knew the full truth - John D. Anderson, Jr.

Mrs. Etta Mae Anderson is daughter (not spouse) Etta Mae Anderson Jenkins, spouse of Roy Otto Jenkins.
Thomas Anderson is son and spouse of Mary Magdalene "Maggie" Allen Anderson.
Robert Anderson is son and spouse of Nelwyn Marie Harrison Anderson.
Mrs. Frank Westbrook is daughter Kathy Westbrook Anderson and spouse of Frank Westbrook.
Mrs. T. G. Westbrook is daughter Roney Betsy Anderson and spouse of Thomas "Gude" Westbrook.
Mrs. Jimmy Grant is daughter Callie "Jimmie" Anderson Grant, spouse of P. L. Grant.
Mrs. R. O. Jenkins is daughter (not spouse) Etta Mae Anderson Jenkins, spouse of Roy Otto Jenkins.
Mrs. Joe Campbell is daughter Oda Anderson Cambell, spouse of Joe Campbell.
Mrs. G. M. Autrey is daughter Maude Wright Anderson Autry, spouse of George Newton Autry.
==================================
Frances Rosetta "Rosie" Roberts Westbrook is widow of John Henry Westbrook and the "Widow" Westbrook that was with George Anderson after 1920 for only a few weeks, then left to go live with her son "Pete" Westbrook which was before the death of George Anderson.
==================================
Jack Anderson - Jan 14, 2008 - from Webbers Falls, OK say he remembers something Aunt Etta Mae told me once. Her father (George), told her he remembers as a child selling newspapers on the street corners of Texarkana in his LONGSHIRT.
==================================
Frances Louise Westbrook Neatherly - Jan 13, 2012 from Monroe, LA area says that George and Mary both were of Cherokee or Choctaw Indian heritage from Panhandle area of OK Territory.
