SHEARS, LUCY (1889-unknown):  Lucy Shears was born in February 1899 to Risom and Harriet Shears in Texas. She is found in the 1900 Census as the eleven-year-old daughter of Risom and Harriet. By 1900, she had three years of education and was still attending school. On March 6, 1906, Lucy married Hezekiah Griffin. The pastor who officiated their wedding ceremony was A.J.
