Hello, I'm an African American descendant of "Frank Laster" who was
born somewhere in the state of Tennessee. He is listed on the 1880
Soundex living in Marshall, Texas, age 55 and married to "Mahaley
Callaway." I believe, he may have been a slave to Anglo Slave-owners
with the same surname of Laster. Any information would be appreciated.

I am searching for a Sarah ? who married Yerby (Erby/Irby) LINGO.
They are my great-great grandparents. They moved from Henderson
County to Texas where my great grandfather was born back to southwest
Arkansas, Pike County. I believe he met and possibly married Sarah.
Yerby's family moved from North Carolina to Hardin County, TN where
they lived for a while. I found Yerby in Henderson County around
1840 married with children. I would appreciate if anyone is out

George W. JOHNSON (a.k.a. G.W. and Geo W. and George Washington
JOHNSON) of Eastern Henderson County is shown with a Shady Hill
address in 1860. He was born in 1810 in South Carolina and in 1860
owned 8 slaves and considerable acreage. He was a staunch Democrat
supporting the Southern cause during the Civil War. I am attempting
to locate a record of Confederate service, militarily or
governmental. He might have served in an Alabama or Mississippi
company. Since he was wealthy and fifty years old in 1860, he most
likely served in a cavalry unit. I am also looking for the record of
his death. He is present on the Henderson County Census of 1870 and
1880, but disappears after this. Could he have emigrated to Arkansas,
Texas, Oklahoma or beyond? Also, can help provide information on

Samuel CRAFFORD MILLER, was born 15 Mar, 1810,
somewhere in TN; died 10 Nov, 1864, Johnsonville, Humphreys Co., TN.
He m ca 1833 MARIA(H) GRIGG(S), dau.
of Lee & Agatha SYKES GRIGG(S), probably in Carroll
Co., TN. This couple lived for a number of years in Henderson
Co., TN, in the Wilderville area.
The information I have on Samuel is that he was the son of Samuel
& Martha CRAFFORD (CRAWFORD) MILLER, who m in
Mecklenburg Co. NC, 1798. Martha was the daughter of
James & Jennet HUTCHINSON CRAFFORD (CRAWFORD). The information I have says that Samuel & Martha MILLERdied while
Samuel Crafford MILLER was still a child. A grandfather, named
Frederick MILLER, supposedly raised Samuel C. They ended up in
Humphreys Co., Tn. The 1850 and 1860 Henderson Co. census
shows Samuel to have been born in Tn.
I know that several of the Crawford families moved to Maury

Is there anyone out there who knows the wife/wives of John and/or
James HOUSTON, the two older brothers of General Sam HOUSTON. My
wife is supposedly descended from one of them. We have a wife of
Mary ALBERT(S), for whichever one we are looking for. The family
seems to think that James is the right brother, and supposedly says
that James was named Thomas James HOUSTON, hating the first name
Thomas, and only going by James, and a birth year of 1789. We show
his brother John as born in 1790. The family says that 1790 is the
birthdate of our HOUSTON, which seems to make me think that it is
probably John. The right ancestor will have at least two sons,
Andrew Jackson HOUSTON, born in 1809 (possibly in Kentucky), marrying
Nancy LOGSDON; and George HOUSTON, born around 1811, (possibly KY,
TN, or even NC) marrying Mary Louise KIRBY. We have been unable to

I have good documentation that two of Clinton BRIGANCE'S sons--
John Dixon and Jourdan/Jordan--died in the Civil War. My information
would suggest sons Henry C., James/Julius R., and
Christopher W. probably died in the war. Is this true? David served
in the war and survived. Also, why did the eldest son, Hugh C.,
enter the Union service toward the end of the war after six of his
younger brothers had served or were serving in the Confederate?
Are there any descendants of Clinton BRIGANCE still living in
Henderson Co.?

This
picture is of my great grandmother

sometimes spelled BESHIERS, BOSHERS, or BRASHERS. In this picture, my
grandmother is wearing a Native American dress and her hair is in two
braids. She also has a bead necklace on. I am at a loss as to which
nation she belongs. Her mother was Nancy "Nann" HANKINS and father
James William DANIEL. He was from Madison Co. I think that she got her
Native American heritage through her mother, as tradition dictates. I
also have a
picture of Lucinda's sister, Alice HENSON, in a dress that
appears to be Native American in nature. Is there anyone who can help

I
am
looking for anyone who has any info on the LARUE family. The family
contains
Stephen LARUE born around 1786 and died in 1837 in either Henderson,
Chester, or
McNairy counties. Stephen married Mariah SCROGGENS (born 1790). I know of
5
children: William Calvin, James, John, Stephen, and George A. Any help
would
be greatly appreciated as I am planning a trip to Tenn in the summer.
