Savage 21y, with 3y old daughter Mae who later died. They do not appear on the 1870 census. A child they raised (a neice to Mary) is my great grandmother...Beulah Leora SAVAGE, married Edgar Lafayette MORGAN son of Charles (Charlie) David MORGAN on 12/1/1908 in Montague County. Charles David MORGAN was married to Nancy Johnson TRAYLER 4/25/1872 in Kaufman County Texas. The MORGAN'S apparently lived their years in Texas exclusivly in the Saint Jo area. Little else is known about the MORGAN'S and how they came to Texas. It is believed from family bible entries that Charles was born in MO., Nancy J. TRAYLER was born in AL. I have an obit on Mary R DEHART from a 1924 newspaper. Excerpts from the obit have her moving from OK with her family (J. W. SAVAGE) in 1872 to Cooke County near Marysville and then moving to the Dry Valley area near Dye Mound in Montague County. After Mary DEHART'S marriage she lived in Marysville a while before moving on to Clear Creek near Gladys, also in Montague County. In 1904 she and Francis moved to Saint Jo. Her obit gives her place of interment as the Mountian Park Cemetery. I have not been able to find any reference to where this Mountian Park Cemetery is located, although I believe it is in the general area of Montague County around Saint Jo. Any help or direction would be greatly appreciated. I have a good deal of information on the preceeding TRAYLER line and would be willing to share.

SPARKMAN, born about 1860 in Tennessee. I need information on his first wife, name at present unknown. He had several children by his first wife: Viola born about 1886, died 25 Feb 1926 in Dallas County; Guve Buck born 19 Jun 1889, died 01 Oct 1978 in Dallas County; Hardie born 12 Oct 1893, died August 1958 in Dallas County. John's first wife either died or they divorced (more likely she died, I think) and he remarried a widow lady named Mary Emma Sherman Dunn from Dallas County. Emma had five children from her first marriage to Joseph S. Dunn in Dallas County: Ernest Dunn born in 19 Apr 1892, died October 1974; Guy Dunn born 8 Nov 1894, died 14 Dec 1979 (buried in Rawlins Cemetery in Dallas County); Willie (female) born December 1896; Cotoline born March 1899; and Musetta (Zettie) born in 1901. Emma and John had at least three more children together: J.C. born in 1903; J.B. born in 1905; and J.W. born in 1908.

She is buried in the Montague Cemetery. There is no date of death on her grave marker. I am looking for anyone who might know infomration on the date of death and cause of death for Ollie Bryant Romine Jones. Our family oral history says that Ollie died in 1918 from that "bad flue". I can document her alive in Sept 1918 per my grandfather's draft registration to WWI. Ollie is listed as the next of kin, and she signed the registration form. The form lists them as residing in Nocona at that time. I am also looking for anyone who has information on the children born to Bob and Ollie. In the Montague County Court House, I can find birth records on Zepho Beulah, Marion Thomas, and Robert O. Jones. In the Montague Cemetery there are also graves for Albert Jones and Ray Jones. My mother and aunts tell me that these were also children of Bob & Ollie, however I cannot find records or dates of deaths. All of these markers only list names with no dates. There is a marker also for Maggie Jones. This would be Bob Jones' sister. I am also looking for date of death, place of death on Maggie. I would appreciate any help anyone can give with the above questions. Also, my mother and her siblings attended the Bird Hollow School between Salona and Bowie.

He has info on the Broyles line going back to the time they came to America. (There is even a "BRILES" castle still standing in Germany - my daughter and her ex-husband visited it when he was stationed in Germany in the Army.) He has his info incorporated so one would have to purchase the booklets (there are probably about 50 or 60) but the cost is minimal. Also there is a Broyles association that one can join, along with big reunions, etc. If anyone wants this info just email me and I will give you his name, address, etc. Also I was a MARTIN before I married. My Martin's lived in FANNIN & GRAYSON counties. My grandfather came from HAYESVILLE, CLAY COUNTY, NORTH CAROLINA. Plus our Martin's are scattered all over. I am searching for my husband's grandmother LUCINDA SMITH, born 1874 in Texas somewhere. She married ANGUS JEFFERSON LEWIS and they lived in Polk county. Both of Lucinda's parents were born in MISSISSIPPI, per the census. It is said that Lucinda's father was a preacher; I assume Baptist because she was Baptist. I am willing to help anyone that I can and would really appreciat any help; especially Lucinda Smith Lewis. As I have seen on some queries - I am beginning to think she was hatched from under a rock.

SURNAMES: WALKER SMITH STONE STOCKING SHELBY
QRYTEXT: Asher WALKER m. Nancy Ann JOHNSON in 1849 in Dallas Co., AR. They had a total of 8 children, including my g- grandfather, Perry A. WALKER, b. Nov. 19, 1875 prob. in AR. After the Civil War, Asher and his family began moving frequently. They were in Cass Co., TX around 1870, in Indian Territory in the 1880's, and by perhaps the 1890's were in Montague Co., TX for a period of time. Nancy Ann JOHNSON WALKER died in 1895, her burial place unknown. Perry married Lulu Belle SMITH STONE, a widow and the daughter of Lewis N. SMITH and Armenia TOLSON in 1895. She was a resident of Ringgold at the time, and family legend has it that they rowed across the river to be married in Indian Territory, as her father didn't approve of the marriage. Two of Perry's sisters married SHELBY men, Mary Dove m. J. H. SHELBY, and Louisa J. m. W. H. SHELBY. It is unknown where these marriages took place. A brother, Alonzo Johnson WALKER, married Mary Jane STOCKING, and another sister, Sarah Ann, m. M. R. STOCKING. This marriage is believed to have taken place in the Montague Co. area August 16, 1891. All of the Walkers moved on to the TX Panhandle before 1910. Any information related to this family would be greatly appreciated.

QRYTEXT: Could someone please advise me whether or not names of parents are shown on a deceased persons death certificate? I am new at researching family history. My great aunt, EFFIE O'NEAL PENDLEY, is buried in the Old Cemetery at Spanish Fort. I was told that she died during childbirth on May 31, 1895. She was born on February 8, 1876. I am trying to find out information about my grandmother, ANNIE F.O'NEAL MORGAN (her name could have possibly been FRANCIS ANNA), and the only information I have is that Annie had two sisters, EFFIE and VINNIE. I do not know the names of their parents and thought perhaps Effie's death certificate would provide a clue. Annie married STEPHEN R. MORGAN, son of NORTH MORGAN, who is listed in the 1880 Census for Montague County. My grandfather, Stephen, was a cowpuncher on the Chisholm Trail and he met Annie in Kansas while he was on a trail drive. They married in Wellington, Kansas on December 22, 1890 and evidently he brought her back to Montague County because their first two children were born in Spanish Fort. Later they settled in Grady, OK and raised a family of 8 children. Any information would be appreciated.

He moved to TX and married Mary Alice TUNE (b. 20 JAN 1878 (she was probably born in TX and adopted by the TUNEs); d. 9 JUN 1941 in Sheldon, Vernon Co, MO) on 15 SEP 1895 somewhere in TX. They had nine children: (1) Robert Franklin EMERY (b. 19 SEP 1896, TX); (2) Clarence Elbert “Slick” EMERY (b. 5 SEP 1898, TX); (3) Bertha EMERY (b. 1900 & died as an infant); (4) Raymond EMERY (b. 8 MAY 1902, TX); (5) Cecil Guyman EMERY (b. 13 AUG 1905, TX); (6) J.

EMERY (b. 17 JUL 1908, TX); (7) 29 JAN 1910, TX); (8) Claude Thomas EMERY (b. 12 DEC 1912, Sunset, Montague Co., TX); (9) Lloyd Joseph EMERY (b. 4 MAY 1916, Bowie, Montague Co., TX). Additionally, I have found an Isaac EMERY (b. 29 OCT 1838; d. 22 AUG 1914) buried in the Smyrna Cemetery, Montague Co., TX. Owing to the shared name and that he died between two known births in Montague Co., I’m thinking he might be Isaac William’s father or uncle. This is, however, pure speculation at this time. The last of the children died in 2000 and it seems as if there has been little information retained in the family. Any information or ideas regarding where to look would be greatly appreciated.

He is listed on the 1880 census for Montague County as "A. L. Ravia" together with his wife and children listed above. A. L. RAVIA is also listed as an original land owner in Montague County. RAVIA changed the spelling of his last name from RABIA. His parents were Santiago RABIA and Nancy Rebecca CARROLL.

After Santiago RABIA died in 1853, Rebecca married James WYRICK. Alexander RAVIA's siblings are listed on 1880 census records for Grayson County, TX. Per family history, he last resided in Foss, Washita County, OK and lived to be in his late 80s or early 90s. The only other data I have about his descendants is that his daughter, Emma Frances RAVIA, married Leander Melton BILLS in 1898 in OK. They are buried in Mount Hope Cemetery, Dimmit County, TX.

I've searched the cemetery listings for Montague Co & don't find her name among those listed. Some family members think she may have been buried in the Dye Mound Cemetery.

He remarried to Zonnettie Alice Givens Nov 16, 1884 & the family moved to OK around 1900. Silas went back after some time & couldn't locate the grave because the iron fence had been removed. Are there any burial records for that time still in existance? I've noticed the mention of unmarked graves in the lists; is there any way to determine who may have been buried in those graves?

The grave is located in the Mallard Cemetary, which is located on fm 455 between Forestburg and Montague. (At one time, there was a town called Mallard in this area.) We need to know who takes care of this cemetary so we can locate the burial site and also obtain the birth and death records for Mary Irene (Randall) Byford, who was killed in an automobile accident. We think she past away in 1901, but are not certain. My mother has just returned home from the hospital after having heart surgery, so time is of the essence.

Doc Gray had at least one previous wife named Frances, and possibly another whose previous married name (she was widowed) was Robinson. They owned the Rock Spring place near Bonita. Our family still owns part of it. At one time, Doc served on the school board, when he was in his seventies, and his three sons were all in primary school. I understand that he was well known at the time, but I can not find him in the early censuses. Perhaps he did not move into the county until after 1880. I have seen a picture of him with his 3 boys (my grandfather and great uncles) in a school picture.

Her birth date was 27 March, 1831. She was supposed to have been living in Alvord, Wise County, Texas when she passed away, but I have not been able to locate a death certificate on file there. It is possible that they lived close to the county line and her death certificate is on file in an adjacent county. Could anyone help me by checking the death records in Montague County Courthouse? My information came from a very small obituary stating the above facts and she was shipped by train to Rock Island, Texas for burial in the Myrtle Cemetery there. She was living with her daughter Caroline (Carry) and her husband Uriah Wheeless in Alvord.

I have obtained several land documents for land he bought and sold in the Illinois Bend, Texas area. In one deed (January 1898) he bought lots #7, 8 and 9 in the town of "Maxville", Montague County, from George N. Dill. Dill was a merchant and apparently sold his general store to James Forrest and started farming in the area. In a second transaction James Forrest sold lots 34 & 35 in the town of "Maxwell", Montague County to W.L. Day (the town physician) on Burton Street (October 1899) I looked for the towns of Maxville and Maxwell in Montague County on the Internet and do not find them. The Handbook of Texas Online says that Illinois Bend was called Wardville until 1877. Does anyone know if it was ever called Maxville or Maxwell? I would appreciate your help. Thank you.

I believe that I found him on the 1880 census married to a S.E. the ages and dates are right but I cant be for sure that it is him until I find out more info. His sons name was James Houston Williams. He left there in 1898 and went to Greer county OK. If anyone can help in any way I would appreciate it as there seems to be some confusion over where he was born. On some documents he says Alabama and others he says Lousiana.

QRYTEXT: Desire communications with any descendant of Humphrey Emerson Perry (b Jul 1859 TN) and his wife Cynthia A Beasley (b 1862 MO). They were married in Wise Co TX on 5 Dec 1882. According to the 1900 census they were the parents of 8 children, of which 2 were deceased. The living children were William A (b Sep 1882 TX), Katie (b Jul 1886 TX), Charles (b Jul 1891 TX), Bell (b Aug 1893 TX), Hastie (b Aug 1896 TX), and Nellie (b Jul 1899 TX). Cynthia Beasley Perry was the daughter of M J and F S Beasley. I believe that M J Beasley may have been Rev Marion Beasley who died in October 1930 and is buried in Nocona Cemetery.

He died 24 Oct 1887/8 in Montague Co, and Ella died Sep 24, 1883/4. They were buried in Tage Cemetery. Since they had minor children when they died, the children were taken in by neighbors, and the estate adminitered by a Mr Arledge. J.A. was a farmer. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
