Jim "Shorty" Lindsey was the son of M M "Curley" Lindsey and Bertha Ella (Dodds) Lindsey. He was born in what is now a ghost town not far from Duncan, Oklahoma. All that is left of the town are some storm cellars at the crossroads where homes and businesses once stood. The name of the town was String Town and is now referred to as Old String Town as there is another city by that name in Oklahoma today. Jim weighed only 2-1/2 pounds at birth. The fact that he survived is no doubt a result of much prayer. Bertha made her tiny son a little mattress that fit snug in a large shoebox and that was his bed for several months.
