Everyone, While trekking through northeastern Texas over the holiday weekend, I happened across the following graves at Ladonia town cemetery, Fannin Co, TX (listed in order from north to south): DeLOACH (one stone): Edouard Mellen DeLOACH, 20 MAY 1879 - 28 OCT 1947 Arbellar (MYRICK) DeLOACH, 14 JUL 1880 - 12 JUL 1942 Momie (MYRICK) PATTERSON, 1886-1956 Ralph Waltrip GREEN, 1909-1920 MYRICK (one stone): David Nicholson MYRICK, 27 NOV 1847 - 03 SEP 1917 Lou (KELLAM) MYRICK, 08 AUG 1954 - 05 OCT 1933 I believe my direct line of descent is as follows: Joseph "Joe" DeLOACH m. 1795 Johnson Co, NC to Louisa "Lucy" JOHNSON > Louisa "Lucy" DeLOACH m. 1833 Talbot Co, GA to Baswell/Basil BROWN > Elizabeth BROWN m. 1845 Upson Co, GA to John Thomas "Jack" MALLORY > Francis Marion MALLORY m. 1868 Upson Co, GA to Mary Elizabeth "Bettie" CARAWAY > Mattie Lee MALLORY m. 1913 Talbot Co, GA to Ernest Clyde LAND > Ernest Cosby LAND (Sr.) m. 1955 Muscogee Co, GA to V. Nadine ADERHOLD (my parents) My data indicate that Joe & Lucy (JOHNSON) DeLOACH had a daughter Mary who m. a MYRICK. Does anyone know how these folks connect? I'm also interested in corresponding with cousins in my branch of the DeLOACH family. Thanks-- John Mallory LAND The Colony, TX retrofit@flash.net
