It is my understanding that our grandfother (B.L.H) was born in Texas and died in Oklahoma, where he had lived for many years. His father, Benjamin Timothy, was born in Tennesee and died in Erath County, Texas. His mother (Elizabeth "Betsy" Rhule) was born in Missouri and died in Erath County, Texas.
