Was interested in this subject on John Autrey that was in Hillsboro Texas in 1860... Mary Jane Autrey was my great grandmother. I noticed in this census listing that there was a Mary Jane in this family and that her fathers' name was John. My mother is 83 and has told me that her grandmother Mary Jane Autrey lived with them till she died in 1947 and that she was in her 90's, also that Mary Jane's fathers' name was John, she does not remember the mothers' name or maybe is just not remember right now because it seems that she has told me before of a Sarah but it may be from another part of her family. I got a chuckle today because I called her and told her of this email I got and had asked her if Mary Jane's mother was named Sarah... she paused and said... "Well, back then everybody was named Sarah"... lol...Was wondering if you had any other info available on this family. I do believe this is my family. Strong feeling only. Also asked mama if she knew any of the names of Mary Janes siblings and she said no. Guess Mary Jane never mentioned them and she said her Daddy didn't know anything about his Aunts, Uncles. Thanks so much for entering the information about the Autrey family. I have printed out and saved it. Maybe one day I can venture over to Hillsboro and poke around.
