Henderson Et Al. v. Jimmerson Et Al‪.‬

J. H. Jimmerson and his wife, Mrs. E. B. Jimmerson, were the owners in community of four tracts of land in the Robert Bell Survey in Rusk County, aggregating about 218 acres, their homestead. On June 14, 1938, they executed an instrument in form of a general warranty deed to C. D. Henderson, the husband of their daughter Monnie Jimmerson Henderson. At that time Mr. Jimmerson was about 76 years of age and Mrs. Jimmerson was about 68 years of age. They had been married 53 years. The recited consideration was $2,200 cash, which sum was paid by two checks of C. D. Henderson, drawn on a Longview bank, for $1,100 each, one payable to Mr. Jimmerson and the other to Mrs. Jimmerson. The instrument reserved life estates in the lands in favor of each of the grantors.
