The patriarch of the Letourneau family is famous for the giant earth moving equipment sold world wide -- his designs are carried forward in many modern machines. He was a self taught designer and engineer.

He started a technical college in Longview TX name after him. I suspect this lady owns many "jumping jacks" (oil wells)! The good thing is that she probably also owns the mineral rights to the land her house sits on.

Ms. LeTourneau is the granddaughter of R.G. LeTourneau, the man to which you refer. She works as a nurse.

Cut to the chase. Is she or isn't she married? (Assuming she owns the mineral rights of course. ;-)

Leila is a grand-daughter of R.G. LeTourneau, founder of LeTourneau University and the earth moving magnate. Her father was Richard, former president of the University.

I really doubt that the house is that extravagant, none of the family really lives an extravagant life style. I also would doubt that she owns the mineral rights, those don't transfer like normal property rights.
