Phil Gessert - Friend and Luke Short researcher who provided two great photos of Luke, the undated photo and the photo of Luke at age 39. Plus all the items shown on the page titled "More Information". Check out Phil's artwork on Photo's page 3.

Sept/2006 - Phil sent me a photocopy of a court document from Tarrant Co., Texas. The document clearly states the Luke and Hattie were Husband and Wife. It also clears up the spelling of her first name.
