  1. 1.  Samuel Franklin VanHooser was born 18 Oct 1888, Paris, Lamar County, Texas; died 18 Apr 1949, Panhandle, Potter County, Texas.

    Notes:

    Samuel was born in Lamar County, Texas perhaps in Sylvan or Paris. He attended school at Wichita Falls in 1903 along with Lizzie and Mattie. He helped his father farm until becoming part of Wells Fargo on the railroad. He was with the Missouri-Kansas-Texas Railroad (called "The Katy") out of Wichita Falls. Samuel was born in Lamar County, Texas perhaps in Sylvan or Paris. He attended school at Wichita Falls in 1903 along with Lizzie and Mattie. He helped his father farm until becoming part of Wells Fargo on the railroad. He was with the Missouri-Kansas-Texas Railroad (called "The Katy") out of Wichita Falls. He was great friends with Carl E. Baker, another messenger, who told me of their carrying whiskey into Indian Territory in their "kit boxes" that contained their supplies and necessities. He met Vera when he visited Stella Lancaster, her sister, at Wichita Falls. They were married and he was moved to Woodward, Oklahoma, where both their children were born. They had been transferred back to Wichita Falls by 1922 and he was still with the Amnerican Railway Express Agency. He transferred the family to Amarillo, Texas in February 1927 and worked out of there on the Santa Fe until he retired in 1948. In Wichita Falls, we lived at 306 Morningside Drive and at 2101 Polk Street where I think they had bought the house. I remember their re-doing the kitchen and mother had a washing machine which had a wooden tub that you had to manually operate the dasher in the tub using a lever. In Amarillo we lived at 704 Mirror Street. Anywhere that we went, we walked because of no other transportation. We walked to visit the Carl E. Bakers and the D.T. Callahams who we knew in Wichita Falls. These families were the only people that we knew when we arrived in Amarillo. His job was classed as essential so he had no military time in either World War 1 or World War 2. Mother maintained that he had to stay out to support his Mother and Father. His job was on the Santa Fe railroad and his office was the baggage car where he handled all things that were shipped by American Railway Express.

    Samuel married Vera Edna Burton 16 Feb 1919, Wichita Falls, Wichita County, Texas. Vera was born 1 Sep 1898, Archer City, Archer County, Texas; died 29 May 1977, Kansas City, Jackson County, Missouri. [Group Sheet]
