I work on a configuration of families in Dallas County, some of whom arrived there ca 1817-1818 from Christian County, Kentucky, led by Thomas Woods, Robert McGough, Joseph McGee and James Harrison Armstrong. They settled north of Selma, in a region extending from Valley Creek (Summerfield) to Plantersville. Thomas Woods (aa Revolutionary War soldier) and his wife Lorena Byers Woods are buried in the Mount Pleasant Cemetery, in an enclosed iron fence within the cemetery. I think they were members of the church there. Their sons (William Byers, Cyrus, Joseph, Thomas Jr, Edward, Andrew) and daughters (Elizabeth, Cynthia) married into neighboring families, including Reed (Reid), Alexander, Lee, Morrison, etc. Robert and Agnes McWhorter McGough are also buried at Mount Pleasant. Their children (John, James, Robert, Mary, Agnes, Elizabeth (Betsey), married into neighboring families, including Armstrong, Johnson, McGee, Brooks, etc. The children of James Harrison/Mary McGough Armstrong (Robert McGough, Rezin Lawrence, Mary Randolph Harrison, Thomas Alexander, James Crittenden, William Hamilton) married into the Kennedy, McGee, Woods families, etc. The seven daughters of Joseph McGee/Elizabeth (Betsey) McGough McGee married into the Woods, Armstrong, Craig, Bradberry, Adams, Martin families. There are many connections to the Alexander/Callen/Woods/Gilmer/Russell/Morrison families buried at Valley Creek Cemetery. In a large family caravan many of these folks left Dallas County in October 1847, headed for Louisiana, settling near Pisgah/Pleasant Hill.. Some of them then (later) migrated to Washington County, Texas, near Brenham. Many of the Woods and McGough/McGee families remained in Dallas County. I'm glad to share information. Hello, Suzanne Coats! I appreciate your sharing of Craig information with me. Your generosity came through loud and clear via the Internet. Thanks. Robert E. (Bob) Parrott, Knoxville, TN, a direct descendant of many of the families mentioned above, especially Woods, Armstrong, McGough, including those who made the great trek to Louisiaia in 1847.
