Taylor in his expedition into Mexico. He was later Commissioner of Agriculture of Arkansas. Col. Locke came to Upshur County in the early fifties and was soon thereafter elected state representative of Upshur and Harrison counties, then from 1856 to 1858 he served as Speaker of the House, being the only man from Upshur County ever to serve as speaker. In 1859 he was elected to the Texas senate and served as Chairman of the Secession Committee which notified Gov. Sam Houston of his disposition as governor. When the Civil War started he resigned his seat in the Senate and became a Colonel in the 10th Texas Cavalry. He left Upshur County soon after the Civil War and died in El Paso in 1899. [from Doyal T. Loyd, A HISTORY OF UPSHUR COUNTY, TEXAS (Gilmer, Texas: THE GILMER MIRROR, 1966), p. 110] In the Mexican War, Locke enlisted as a private in Company F of Colonel Jefferson Davis' 1st Regiment of Mississippi Volunteer Infantry 6/15/1846.

It was sewn by the wife of Capt. Hulum D. E. "Raz" Redwine of Company E. A Confederate First National (Stars and Bars) flag, it has a large white star embroidered "Texas" in red in the center of the canton, surrounded by smaller white stars similarly labeled for Virginia, Tennessee, South Carolina, Georgia, Mississippi, Alabama, Florida, Louisiana, North Carolina, and Arkansas. Red stars in the canton's four corners are embroidered Chicasaw, Choctaw, Creek, and Cherokee in white for the Indian nations. The legend "Strike for Your Alters & Your Homes" is embroidered in red on the flag's central white stripe. There is also a Company E flag made by Mrs. Redwine in the museum. It is a more conventional First National with "We Strike for Liberty" and the company name ("Bully Rocks") embroidered in red on the white stripe. If you would like to get in contact with the Museum here is the address: The Texas Military ForcesMuseum, P. O. Box 5218, Austin, Texas 78763-5218. Color illustrations of both flags appear on pages 26 and 27 of BATTLE FLAGS OF TEXAS IN THE CONFEDERACY by Alan K. Sumrall (Austin, Texas: Eakin Press, 1995). - ----------------------------------------------------------

Hi all, I was lucky enough to get to go to the Family History Library in Salt Lake City, this week. I did not have too much time there, but I did find some new information on a few Crawford families in Kentucky. I will try to post what I have found as the week progresses. http://www.cobnet.com/webBase/crawford/view.pl?INDI=606 Click the link above to find the new information on Samuel Crawford. I have more on Henry, Samuel Jr., Hugh, Nathaniel and Mason, but it will be later before I can get to it. Good Luck with your research, Mark Floyd leonardz

I'd like to combine all our information on the Crawford's of Rockingham Co., VA. I have a lot of information on Col. William Crawford's sons, Patrick and Alexander, William Crawford (1827) and some information on the other Crawford's. If we combine information I hope we can link some of the familles together. The information will be posted on a web site for all to see. I am working on a site to enter marriages, Maxine's suggestion, which will take a little more time then I thought because it involves the use of forms. If your interested in the Crawford's of Rockingham or you have information to contribute, please e-mail me. Robert Lee Crawford, Sr

Patrick Crawford acquired land in the Middle River area of Agusta or Rockingham County sometime before 1761. On May 5, 1761, Huge Allen acquired 140 acres adj. to Patrick. George Crawford acquired 194 acres on June 26, 1770, Alex Walker June 26, 1770, Auther Connley Jan 9, 1772, William Johnson Jan 9, 1772 and John Given March 25, 1775. Can anyone answer these questions. Where is the Middle River area? Is this Patrick Crawford the brother of Alexander? Does anyone have information on this George Crawford? Robert

Midwest Pioneers: An Expedition, 1832 In 1832 an expedition commissioned by then Secretary of War Lewis Cass was sent to secure a permanent peace with Native Americans of the upper Midwest. Indian agent Henry Schoolcraft traveled as a member of the group as it journeyed up the Mississippi River. This database is Schoolcraft's account of the expedition and includes extensive descriptions of the Indian tribes of the area. It provides observations regarding the beliefs, customs, and history of the Chippewa, Sioux, Menominee, and Mandans. Also included are various official documents relating to the trip, along with the speeches of six Native American chiefs regarding relations with the United States. For researchers seeking to understand the Indians of the region, this can be an informative and interesting narrative. Bibliography: Library of Congress.

Washington County, Virginia Deaths, 1886-1896 Formed in 1777 and located in western Virginia, Washington County was home to about 29,000 people in 1890. This database is collection of death records from the county between 1886 and 1896. Providing valuable information regarding over 7,300 individuals, the records were taken from existing county documents held by the state. Researchers will find the person's name, race, sex, death date, and cause of death. In many entries the person's age, birthplace, and father's name is also provided where the information is known. For researchers of Virginian ancestors, this database can be a valuable research tool. Bibliography: Fridley, Beth. "Washington County, Virginia, Death Records, 1886-1896."
