LEE MURZEL ELDER
Obituary - Nov. 4, 1923 - May 13, 2016 San Angelo, TX

Lee Murzel Elder was born as the first child of six on November 4, 1923, in Kress, Texas,
to Prentice and Velma (Cunningham) Elder, who lived in the rural Texas Panhandle where his grandfather was a working cowboy on the Goodnight Ranch ….
Lee compiled the Elder Genealogy book which is very extensive and goes back to Peter Elder, his earliest ancestor to come to America in the 1650s. Many of the Elder families throughout the US have added information to this book and obtained a copy of it from Lee. He was a member of the San Angelo Genealogy Society and faithfully attended the meetings. He always loved to tell people that his first cousin was Ruth Elder who was the first woman aviator to attempt to fly from the US over the Atlantic in 1927. _________________ Nancy Elder Petersen
