My great Uncle. Son of Levi Franklin Watt & Alice Amerilla Hawkins (1861-1925; mother immigrated from Canada in 1871, unknown burial place); grandson of Eli & Nancy E. (maiden name unknown) Watt and Unknown & Frances E. (Gryderman) Hawkins.

When Uncle Luther was 21 he married Maye Coefield (she was only 17). Within a short time they had a bouncing baby girl, Rose Marie.

By 1930 they were living in Austin, Garfield Co., CO and he was a Miner.
