gwen welcome.......several of us have Washington Co, mo. in our history where we seem to be stuck....have tried researching old maps for boundaries to see if the Washington co. In could pos be the same place from yrs ago....i did find some old maps out on the net with old boundaries but couldnt read them clearly....my family is vernie rush farriss (farris) born 1898 in red river tx, he was the son of willie rush farris married to nettie chennault farris....we know that willie rush grew up in missouri, had 3 sisters named mollie, lulu elizabeth (b 1868-married 1884 and moved to tx 1893),and sallie.....their parents were cowan and mollie farris still in missouri..... so our brick wall starts with cowan and mollie farris who had 4 children: lulu elizabeth, sallie, mollie, and willie rush..........i believe but not sure that cowan's father was john w farris married to edith james........this is very unclear.......some info i have states john was born in kentucky ... any info of the parents etc of cowan or mollie farris will be most appreciated or when willie rush moved to texas and when/where willie rush married nettie chennault.... i do have what i believe to be accurate info on lulu elizabeth who married jeremiah samuel calloway in wayne cty mo then moved to texas in 1893, landed in greyson cty tx (near denison and sherman tx) i show that sallie farris married jim goode and had 4 children also that mollie farris married frank murph and had one child, ida murph. this is all the info i have taken from old letters i found in my mothers belongings.....any info will be most appreciated....i do have info to share for lulu elizabeth and willie rush (my g-father)... thnx much mary
