Ada and Crockett and their children had gone to West Texas to pick cotton. They lived with her parents in Ira, TX. Ada became pregnant - it was a tubal. She had complications and died. Crockett brought her body back to Bluff Dale on the train. Her father brought the children back. Loree Like Rogers, sister of Crockett, remembers going to Bluff Dale at night to meet the train. She said she could hear the train whistle a long way away and thought it was the most dreary thing she had ever heard [information courtesy Barbara Kirkland].
