Comments and Notes:
I barely knew my grandfather, having seen him only 2 or 3 times when I was a teenager. My grandparents divorced when my father was only 6 and he never saw him again until almost 20 years later, after learning they were both "furniture men". Dad tells in his memoirs that his father worked for the Arkansas Furniture Manufacturing Co., a manufacturer from whom my father regularly purchased merchandise for sale in his employ with Crook Furniture Co.
At least 2 phone book listings have been posted online that indicate he operated The Morgan Furniture store on Elm Street in old downtown Dallas. A descendant of Ralph Olen Morgan, one of Boniar's brothers, told me that Boniar and Ralph were in business together there.
I have in my possession quite a few photos of Boniar, both as a young father playing with my father as a baby and as a middle aged man, several of the latter taken while he was standing with a brothers. A few were taken in relation to the furiture store.
