Ernest Lee


Ernest Lee & Jewel Cave

by Donna Cave


My sister, Carol, and I lived with our parents just outside Brownfield.   I lived there from 
1947 to 1963 and Carol lived there until 1961 when she married.   Our father, 
Ernest  Lee "Skeeter" Cave, was a preacher at Pleasant Valley Church. 
 He also farmed the A. T. Fowler place.   The old jail that was on 
the property was not just used for storage but housed the 
workers who came from Mexico to  work the fields.   
Many of the same people came back year after
year to work on the farm for my parents.   
Daddy and our mother, Jewel, were
 well thought of by the workers.
