Here is a photo of Thomas Ulysses Roberts as an adult. Now who do you think could be Thomas in the family group photo? There is only one boy in the photo who looks like he is about 11 years old, and Thomas is the only one in the family who was 11 years old in 1895. If that boy on the far right is not Thomas, then Thomas is not included in the photo. Why would Henry Oliver and Elizabeth choose to exclude their 11 year old from the only family photo they ever took?

Im very rusty on this stuff but here are a couple comparison tools to help sort things out..
The four people in the middle is from a single photo with the guy on the left being identified as Virgil and the guy on the right being H.O. Roberts (Brushy's father). I put the findagrave photo of H.O. next to himself. On your far left is a splice from the Roy Haws photo of a guy someone said is H.O. Roberts but he looks more like a guy that has been identified as Virgil Roberts. The middle photo of the 4 came from a public Brushy page on FB.
Here you have the Roy Haws Brushy pic in white compared to two known Brushy photos and a couple other Roberts family members so you can get an idea of who is who and who isn't.
And if the pics comparison that someone posted earlier on this thread are Martha Vada Roberts then the young boy can not be Oliver Pleasant Roberts because the real Oliver P. Roberts was only born about 5 years after her and the boy in Roy Haws' pic is not 5 years younger than her. So regardless, it couldn't be Billy, Brushy or Oliver.
Lots of new stuff coming. Ya'll saw they discovered that new Billy newspaper interview back in 2020 or 2021. And supposedly new pics of Brushy as Billy in Silver City coming any day now. And I saw a brand new letter that I'm certain was written by Billy for many reasons. It should be another interesting year or two I hope. Attachments:
