George Jones was very close to my moms side of the family, he once lived with one of my uncles when George was a young boy.

I did not always live in Houston. I lived outside of Beaumont Texas in a town called China Texas, however my uncle was living around the Jasper area.

Vidor. There is a name I haven't heard in a while. I remember back in the early to mid 90s when the government attempted to integrate Vidor. It went poorly. I have no idea what the status of Vidor is today.

Growning up Vidor was known for its close ties to the Klan. Not sure if it still is.
