11-1098A. ETHEL MAE BOATRIGHT (ALEXANDER EVANS11, LENEARST BOLDEN10, ALEXANDER EVANS9, LENEARCE BOLIN8, JOHN JOSEPH7, DANIEL6, BENONI5, JOHN4, JOHN3, JOHN2, Not Yet Determined1) 30 Apr 1917 in Austin, Travis County, Texas, and died 19 Jul 2010 in Austin, Travis County, Texas. She married THURSTON VANCE STUKES, son of FLOYD VANCE STUKES and ADA ELIZABETH STEWART. He was born 13 Jan 1913 in Austin, Travis County, Texas, and died 27 Nov 1979 in Austin, Travis County, Texas.
Notes for ETHEL MAE BOATRIGHT:
Ethel Mae Boatright Stukes Ethel Mae Boatright Stukes, age 93 and beloved by all that knew her, died peacefully in Austin July 19, 2010. Born April 30, 1917, in Georgetown, Texas, she was the eldest child of Etta Mae Teague Boatright and Alexander Evans Boatright. Her father's ancestors were from Wales, and her mother's ancestors arrived in Galveston from Germany. Her husband Thurston Vance Stukes pre-deceased her in 1979 after 44 years of marriage. Ethel's greatest joy was her family, and she centered her life around them. She loved little white fluffy dogs, gem stones, writing poetry about family, coin collecting, home cooking, and talking about family and old times. She never missed sending a birthday card to loved ones, and she was an overly generous gift-giver. Her fond memories included her trips from Georgetown to Austin by wagon when only prairie grass lined the road. Climbing the circular stairway to the tiptop of the Capitol dome was a huge adventure as a teenager. She remembered the relief when autos became commonplace because it solved much of the "pollution problem" caused by the horses in the neighborhood on San Gabriel Street. She kept the Congress Avenue street pictures of her in a fur coat and the men in snappy hats. Always patriotic, she often reminisced about her life during World War II when she and Thurston with their young daughter LaVada traveled several years in a Vagabond trailer, as Thurston built war plants for the "good of the country." Although she was growing up during the Great Depression, she never despaired about the situation and considered herself fortunate to have such a good family. "Granny" loved carpooling her adored grandchildren Cynthia, Brad, and Holly and their friends all over west Austin in her orange station wagon. Today, grown-up native Austinites with families of their own still ask about her and share endearing memories. She worked for years at the Austin State Hospital. Appearing shy at times, she would surprise others by prowling lower Manhattan, off-roading through the red rocks of Sedona, visiting the Liberty Bell in Philadelphia, strolling in San Diego, having watercress sandwiches at High Tea at the Plaza in NY, or throwing snow balls in the Colorado Mountains. Being presented to Queen Elizabeth II by Governor Ann Richards at the Texas Governor's Mansion in 1991 was a highlight she never expected to experience. She is survived and will be missed by her loving family: daughter LaVada Jackson Steed and husband Jim Steed; granddaughters Cynthia Diane Jackson and Holly Lynn Jackson; grandson Bradley Don Jackson and wife Dana with great-granddaughters Nicole Betty Jackson and Robin LaVada Jackson; Jim's father Corry Steed; and Jim's son Jason Steed with children Kelsey, Tyler and Katherine; and RaNee Harbison Steed; and Jim's son Bryan Steed with wife Gena and children Madison, Molly, and Jake. Ethel's youngest sister Janell Boatright Reece and family in Bastrop also survive her, as well as numerous nephews and nieces. Predeceased siblings are Altha Bertling, Edith Hopkins, Oliva Teague, Ada Ward, David Boatright, and Robert Evans Boatright. Pallbearers are Bradley Jackson, Jim Steed, Don J. Jackson, Jason Steed, Bryan Steed, Mark Reece, Darrel Reece, and Walter Sneed. Services will be at Weed-Corley- Fish on North Lamar in Austin at 1:00 p.m. Friday, July 23. Family burial services will be held earlier at Oak Grove Cemetery, a family cemetery where many of Ethel's ancestors are interred. Pastor Tom Goodman of Hillcrest Baptist will officiate.

AURY MANNING BOATRIGHT (WILLIAM FLOYD11, WILLIAM ALEXANDER10, ELISHA BENJAMIN9, LENEARCE BOLIN8, JOHN JOSEPH7, DANIEL6, BENONI5, JOHN4, JOHN3, JOHN2, Not Yet Determined1) 29 Apr 1914 in Williamson County, Texas, and died 02 Feb 1994 in Louisiana. He married (1) FLORA MAE MASON. She was born 1920 in Texas. He married (2) JANE MOONEY 1943, daughter of EARL MOONEY and ANNA. He married (3) ALBERTA DIXON, daughter of GEORGE DIXON and MYRTLE PORTER. She was born 1918 in Sweetwater, Monroe County, Tennessee.
Notes for AURY MANNING BOATRIGHT:
Aury M. Boatright had 6 children. Unfortunately the State of Louisiana took his kids away and placed them in foster care. My mother, June, 18 months old at that time, was one of his children taken away. I have personally met Aury M. before he died in 1994 and can vouch he is my grandfather. My mother was fortunate to be placed in a foster home with 3 of her siblings whom she grew up with.
Unfortunately, Aury M. and Alberta both were alcoholics. They lived in a one room shack in the bayou of Lake Ponchartrain in Louisiana (which we all visited in mid 1980’s — I remember it vividly). They had piles of trash all over their yard and in the house. It was not fit for human habitation, yet they managed to continue to live in the same house 30 years after the children were taken away in 1954.
Velma, my mom's older sister, was taken away when she was about 6-9 years old. She gave me what little information she could remember after meeting Aury M. again in her 30’s and several times later. She said her father, Aury M., went by other names: Tex and Avery (maybe a misunderstanding on her part?) She mentioned that Aury M. had a sister named Addie. His parents were Floyd and Mae. He was born in Texas.
