Posted on: Jackson Co. Ar Queries Reply Here: http://cgi.rootsweb.com/~genbbs/genbbs.cgi/USA/Ar/Jackson/287 Surname: DAVIS ------------------------- Greetings, Michael! To be honest, I just found out Martha's maiden name yesterday. What I have on her so far is that the 1900 Red River Co., TX Census shows her born April 1857 in MS to parents both born in TN. However, another census, the 1880 in Red River Co., TX (where I believe the family moved between mar and july of 1877 from AR) shows her as 27 years old, making the birth year 1853. So, if you have a Martha in the family with a birthplace of MS and parents born in TN, could very well be that Martha's related! Please let me know. We may find a connection yet! Meanwhile, happy hunting! ---Laura
