[341] All data from McLeester. The following is from an E-mail from HustonSwearingen, 01/18/1998. "Apparently Robert Melton lived with hisgrandmother, Elizabeth, and her second husband, Preacher Grace untilthe age of 10 or 12. One day when his father, Chester, and his secondwife, Essie, were visiting, he climbed into the truck as they wereleaving and stayed with them from then on. There was a court hearingof some kind because the story goes that the judge asked Robert wherehe wanted to live and he said with Chester and Essie."
