Dear Joan, I'd like to contribute to the volume on Early Co. My family lived in Early Co. in the 19th century. They left Early Co. for Tyler Co., TX along with the Hutto, Collier, Sheffield, Milner families and others. Most of these early settlers are buried in Spurger, TX. I'd be glad to provide info.
