Lloy Weldon PERKINS

Buckner Memorial Park (aka Buckner's Orphans Home) Cemetery
Dallas County,
Texas

Weldon was the son of William Sheb and Oma Perkins.

In the 1910 census Weldon was living with his family in Blossom, Lamar County, Texas. Oma died January 13, 1916. I do not know when Weldon entered Buckner, but he was there in 1920 and lived there before entering Howard Payne College as a freshman in fall 1927. He was 19 when he dropped dead of a heart attack in a classroom. He was survived by two sisters, Sallie and Lorene, and two brothers, Turney and Jesse.
