"Thanks.. I've seen these. However Wayne Short says in his book that Luke met "Hettie" (No last name given) in New York City and did not bring her west until he moved to Fort Worth in about 1884. Thanks again.."

Luke Short... His Wide Hettie

I'm doing some work on Luke Short who is buried here in Fort Worth. I have looked at a lot of sources, books, clips, etc. over the years. I still haven't found the maiden name of Short's wife "Hettie" who he supposedly married in New York in 1881. I also read that she married Luke Short's brother John who lived in Arizona after Luke's death, but I'm not really turning up anything factual. Does anyone have anything that mnight help on this?
