“My father said that they moved to Texas because his father had "bad lungs" and needed a drier climate. They moved first to Cuero, Texas, and then to Austin, winding up in San Antonio after WWI. My father was strongly anti-smoking because he felt that his father had ruined his health by smoking.” – Rap Dawson.
