Nancy B. SYPHRETT DETTY was descended from several old Seabrook, Galveston and south Houston families, including SYPHRETT, JONES, DAVIS, CLASEN, KUHN and FUSSELL. She was a master genealogist and the author of *Detty, Syphrett, and Related Families*.

Nancy was the daughter of Martin Luther Syphrett and "Mamie" Mary Georgine Josephine Jones Murdock Syphrett. Her half-siblings were Annie Orlean Murdock, Lucille Murdock and William Boyd Murdock, Sr. Her husband was Clyde Detty and her son was Bill Detty.

One interesting note: "B." was her middle name. It did not stand for anything... It was just the letter "B.".
