Eva was born to Stanley Sanders and Kitty Azalene Cobb at her Grandparents (Nat and Mabel Cobb) home in Bremond, Texas. She moved to Humble about the age of 12 and started going to Humble schools. At the age of about 18 she was introduced to her Sister's (Gloria Jean) boyfriend's best friend Walter Howell and while she was working at the ticket booth at the Jewel Theater one night he dropped a ring in through the window and proposed to her. Then the following February they were married and had tow wonderful boys Gerald Lynn"Jerry" and David Edward. Walter died after they had only been married 38 wonderful years and in 1994 she married Wiley Allen Watson. Eva's oldest son died in 2012 but she persevered another 6 years although I often wondered how. I suppose it was the strengths she got naturally from the four people to the right of her here. Her parents and Grandparents.
