I'm trying to find some information on some of my family who lived in the area. My great-great-grandfather said he was born in Groesbeck, TX. His name was John
Cooper Dunn, Jr. His father was John Cooper Dunn, and his mother was Arabella McCrory. I've been looking for quite a while on a death notice or obituary of
his parents. He was born in 1875, and his parents died sometime before 1880 according to the census records. He went on the live with his brother and sister
at his uncle, Thomas McCrory's house in Navarro. Please let me know if you think you may be able to help me out. George Dunn

I am looking for the grave of three relative. They aren't listed on you list. Around 1987 I found the graves. I can't remember how I got the info of where they were. I talked to someone, maybe at a church and they were able to give to the exact location of the graves. And I can't remember if there was any headstones. It's three graves right next to each other. One is Walter Harvey Newton 1868-1938, then Thelma Marie Napier, 1901-1928, then Thelma Laura Napier 1923 (she was a baby and I'm not sure when she died. I can't find any death records on her.) The undertaker for Walter and Thelma Marie was Riddle  Carolyn Martin

I found the following information listed in the Coolidge City Cemetery.
Christopherson, Adolph, b. 10 Feb 1906, d. 19 Aug 1976, "Father", s/w Ina A. Christopherson

I found a picture of Adolph and one for Ina Christophers in my mothers belongings after she died. At one time I took my grandmother to visit with this couple. Seems like they lived in the Dallas area at the time. I would like to get the pictures to a descendant, but so far I'm not having any luck in finding any. If you are a descendant please contact me

Would appreciate information on William G. SHELTON born Nov 1875 in TX, married Mary Ellen/Ella Ferguson in Nov 1875 in Limestone TX, she was born Mar 1873 in TX, daughter of Aaron David Ferguson and Adaline. They were in Robertson Co, TX in 1900 Census, and in Trinity Co, TX in 1910 Census.
Have William and Mary E. living in Bryan Co, OK in 1920 with his brother and family Jeff Shelton. They had 5 children, but only have names for 3 of them – Effie born Aug 1893 in TX, William D, born abt 1895 in TX, and Cleman A Shelton born abt 1902 in TX
William G. was in Prison in Pittsburgh Co, OK in 1930. Have not been able to find Mary (Mollie – nickname) E. or the children in 1930 census. Would assume they were still in OK. Their son, Cleman A. Shelton died in California about 1976.
Any help in info on this family after 1920 would be appreciated. Need date William G. and Mary E. died and where. June Ferguson Hollingshead

Would you please give me directions to Tidwell/Webb cemetery? I tried to find it several months ago after asking directions at the courthouse. I would like to acquire a picture of her headstone to add to findagrave.com. I'm researching my Watkins family lines. Mary Ann was Alfred's oldest daughter, Drucilla Cordelia the youngest. Alfred was Green Berry's younger brother, which is my line. I would like to know any information about her after she left San Augustine county. I presume when she left, she lived with either her son or daughter, one married a Webb and the other a Tidwell, in Limestone county until she pasted. If you know of any family that would like to converse, I would like that too. Thanks Scott Watkins

Still yet looking for tombstone of my gg grandmother. Died about
1898-1900. Her husband was in Limestone co in 1901 and she was dead
at that time.
He was J. T 'Tom' Coble.. she was Mahala/Mahaley. I found a Mahala
and JT CONE in Limestone that died about the right time. I tried to
get records but told there is none available...
I wondered who ordered the tombstones as their sons were uneducated
at the least.
Mahala was Born in 1846 to Polly and William Humphries in Sabine Pass
area. Her parents died while she was a child and she then married 3
times...Mahala Umphris/Humphries McMillan/McMullen Cobb Coble. I was told
they lived in far and moved a lot... maybe that would explain the
name spelling problem. Barbara Carter
