To Ila: Thanks for you input on this family. I'll get right on the follow-ups. Bill I've asked for help on the Census Lookup site also. I don't know where in OK to look so your ideas are most welcome. Thanks again. Bill

Indian Territory is a wild shot. If I were guessing I'd start with the Chickasaw and Choctaw Nation. Each of the "Five Civilized Tribes" had National governments and each had slaves before the Civil War. To replace the slaves they had day laborers and tenant farmers. They had to have work permits to enter those lands or they were squatters. Because your relatives went back to TX, it is likely that they would have just crossed the Red River to farm the very rich land there. Hotels were built, doctors and lawyers set up practices in towns along the railroads, etc., but no one owned any of the land. The land rights were retained by the National governments. Oklahoma Historical Society Library has microfilm of those records and the combined Five Civilized Tribes' Archival records are in some cases retained in Muskogee. Arkansas was the headquarters of federal records and court dealings during the period before Oklahoma became a state in 1907. I never did find my grandfather's work permit or the record of his brothers' or his uncles' tenant farmer status, but you might get lucky! ---ila41430@aol.com

Posted on: Bullock Queries Reply Here: http://genconnect.rootsweb.com/gc/FamilyAssoc/Bullock/274 Surname: BULLOCK, CLARK ------------------------- I may or may not have a connection. Licugas F. Bullock b.&.d in TX (1852-1885)m. Mississippi Bell Castleman in 1879. After his death she remarried to Oscar Allen Rudolph CLARK, 30 Aug 1887 in Wise Co.,TX. He was son of A.C. BULLOCK & Martha HUNTER. He used both BULLOCK & CLARK, why I do not know. His son, my father-in-law used only BULLOCK. He was born in Indian Territory, OK in 1892 but married Carrie Leda STOUT in/around Cumby,TX in the 1920's. Any ideas?? Will appreciate any help. Thanks for your time.

Posted on: Bullock Queries Reply Here: http://genconnect.rootsweb.com/gc/FamilyAssoc/Bullock/273 Surname: BULLOCK, CLARK ------------------------- I need some help in finding the family of Licugas F. BULLOCK and Mississippi Belle Castleman in TX 1879-1885. His widow remarried to Oscar Allen Rudolph BULLOCK or CLARK and moved to Indian Territory, OK and had 4 children there. Don't know where in OK also I don't know how to find out. They went back to TX after the OK land rush. Oscar Allen Rudolph CLARK was the son of A.C. BULLOCK & Martha HUNTER. Where the CLARK name comes in I don't know. I have some other information but this is the highlights of the mystery. Thanks for your time. Will appreciate ideas. Bill in AZ

Fred, Hello again. I thought we had covered this previously, but apparently not. I show Augustus as s/o Simeon Holden & Polly Pierce (no dates). Nothing on Simeon but Polly d/o Nathan Pierce & Mary McLauth. Nathan b.1770 Lanesboro, Berkshire, MA. He was s/o Nathan Pierce (who died 1776 at Quebec in Rev War) & Sarah Davis. In turn he was s/o Nathan Pierce & Lydia Martin. Lydia was d/o Ephraim Pierce & Thankful Bullock (d/o Samuel). So you get another Bullock connection. The parentage of Polly Pierce isn't nailed down yet, but it fits the time and place. Hope this helps.

For Claire and others wanting to check my data that is on RootsWeb's WorldConnect, there are several ways to get there. To go directly to the database, use http://worldconnect.rootsweb.com/cgi-bin/igm.cgi?db=jbbullock. It can also be accessed through the WorldConnect Project at http://worldconnect.genealogy.rootsweb.com/. Enter "jbbullock" in the box that says "Database". Then you can search for names, and when you find an individual of interest, you can check his pedigree chart or descendant chart. (Note to anyone looking for the Hix/Hicks family, I have used the "Hicks" spelling throughout since that is the way the later descendants spelled it.) A few words about the database and the sources: This isn't specifically a Bullock database. Besides researching my father's immigrant paternal ancestor, Richard Bullock of Rehoboth, I am working on my mother's paternal line which began with John Medbury of Swansea. Because both parents' ancestors came from the same area, my work is focused on everyone in the Rehoboth/Swansea, MA, area with any ties to either family. Most of the data is from the Colonial era; I follow very few lines past the early 1800s. I haven't done much in-depth research on specific individuals. Most of my data comes from towns' vital records, probate records, or published biographies & genealogies. All of those sources are cited in my database. Earlier entries for the Bullock family that don't show sources came mostly from a "starter database" sent to me some years ago by my 2nd cousin Jim Bullock of Amarillo. A lot of the early work was done by Jim, Ginny Deagan, Lynnea Dickinson, Peter Bullock, and others. Early entries for the Medbury relatives that don't show sources came from a Medbury/Medbery family genealogy by Elizabeth W. Medbery. Sources that I use are MA VRs published on CD-ROMs from Search & Research, Arnold's RI VRs on CD, Beaman's RI probate abstracts on CD, Rounds's Bristol Co. probate books, Providence town records on CD, several Mayflower CDs, NEHGR on CD, the NGS Quarterly CD, Bliss's & Bowen's books on Rehoboth, several Swansea books, some Plymouth books, Pope, Savage, Torrey, the Great Migration series, several published family genealogies, a couple of Carl Boyer's books, the US census index, and online subscriptions to ancestry.com & genealogylibrary.com, plus a few others. I usually update the database at least once a week. It went from about 9,500 names in Jan. 2000, to over 16,000 names at year end. But what is more important is that I have been adding source information for what I already had. All of those names, dates, and places don't have much value if the user doesn't know where the information came from. I still have some "garbage" that came from online databases that I'm trying to weed out. I always appreciate hearing from others about additions, corrections, or comments regarding the data. I also try to do further research if it's in one of my sources. But if it involves anything outside of MA & RI in the earlier centuries, then I probably can't help. I do have a few sources for CT & NY, but they are somewhat limited. I'll be adding more to my collection as the budget allows--about one book or CD each month. Incidentally, ancestry.com is starting to add census images online for subscribers. There isn't much there yet, but it should be a good resource in the future. Jim Bullock Littleton, CO

Claire, In the property transaction, the unknown Hix is Asahel, b. 1770, son of Nathan Hix and Sarah Bullock. Doesn't help your original problem, but its nice to get the players sorted out. The info is thanks to Jim Bullock's on-line data base. He really did his homework. Chuck Bullock

Thanks. I will send on this message, although I don't think it is going to be helpful to her. Kay

Thanks for the information. I need to go see what is on Jim's board. Do you have the address. Claire

Claire, I'm going to jump in again and hope Pete will get on line and help clarify things. David Perry, Jr. was the brother of the Esther Perry who was married to Benjamin Bullock, who was a property owner in the area as well, I believe. I'd like to know if Hezekiah Hix was father to Nathan. Somebody? I've got very little on the Hix family. Could the property in question be the same conveyed previously by Hezekiah Hix to Nathan? In light of Pete's prior writings, it seems likely. Would anyone like to stir the pot some more? Chuck Bullock

Claire, Dower rights as described in the document you excerpted refers to a widow's right to an interest in the property of her late husband. This goes along with inchoate dower rights which grant a spouse an interest in the property of a living husband. Both were frequently written into law in many places to prevent a wife/widow and her children from being left destitute should a husband depart by horse or death. Normally this is a 1/3 interest. The property in question couldn't be sold until the wives signed off of their dower rights - effectively a quitclaim. My quess is that the property in question was held jointly by both families and was being sold to another party. Aaron Threasher was the husband of Daniel's daughter Marcy/Mercy. I can't tell you which Hix was the other witness, but there were a lot of them around Rehoboth at the time, many related to the Bullocks by marriage. I'd also like to see more of the document. the small part given doesn't really show the nature of the transaction. Chuck Bullock

Islands in the Carribean were known as the West Indies in early colonial history, just as both Bermuda and Virginia were the same land grant "way back when". Jamaica, for example, is an island in the West Indies south of Cuba. When those islands are referred to as a group they are West Indies rather as an individual island with its own name.---ila41430@aol.com

My friend has Bullock ancestors who, she was told, came from a place in Virginia called West Indies. I never heard of such a place and can't find it on a map, even a very old one. Anybody out there know of such a place? Kay

I wish we could find out more about this as it could help find Comfort's parents. I don't even know where to start looking. Claire
