BONNIE RAY PARKER’S Niece: Rhea Leen Linder
On May 27, 2023, I attended the 30th annual Authentic Bonnie and Clyde Festival in Gibsland, Louisiana. Every year the only living relatives of Bonnie Parker and Clyde Barrow attend. Buddy Barrow, the son of Clyde’s youngest brother LC, is in his mid 70s. Bonnie’s niece, daughter of her older brother Buster, will turn 89 this October. She was kind enough to let me briefly interview her. I enhanced the interview with information about both of their lives, and I include stories they have told in other interviews that I have found. She talks about her childhood with Billie Jean, who raised her from age 7, the trio of old ladies Billie (Parker), Blanche (Barrow) and Marie (Barrow) and their antics, and family reactions to the 1967 Hollywood film (hint, it wasn’t good) lol. There is a brief talk of the effort to move Bonnie beside Clyde that is now in the courts. I cannot reveal any specifics of the case to protect their efforts but I give a few of my personal views which should be okay and do no harm. I include some footage of the festival as well, and stay tuned for an episode chronicling their final day alive in the very near future!
The original image of Bonnie which I altered in FaceApp to age progress was created by the YouTube channel Mystery Scoop. Check them out, their PhotoShop creations of historical figures is amazing!
I also consulted an interview Rhea Leen and Buddy did for the Dallas Historical Society in 2021, for additional stories.
