My great great grandparents were Allen GATES born abt 1775 NC and married to Ann C.THOMPSON born abt 1790 NC. One of their children were Julia Margaret GATES HOOSER WYATT born 28 July 1817 (we think in Linden,Perry Co., TN) and died 2 Jan 1888. Julia was 1st married to Alexander HOOSER born abt 1814 died 26 May 1846 (we think in Linden, Perry Co., TN.) Julia married Alexander HOOSER 23 Aug 1838 in Marshall, TN. Julia's 2nd marriage was to Abraham WYATT abt 1848 (we think in Linden, Perry Co., TN). Julia and Abraham WYATT are buried in Jenkins Springs Cemetery in Brownwood, Brown Co., Texas. Julia's daughter Mary Ann Elizabeth HOOSER DAY is my great grandmother. Mary Ann Elizabeth HOOSER DAY was born 13 Jan 1841 in Linden, Perry Co., TN and died 14 Dec 1928. Mary married William Johnson DAY 26 Jan 1860 at Valley Mills, McLennan Co., Texas. William Johnson DAY is my direct line. He was born 18 Nov 1828 in GA and both died in Delaware Switch, Brownwood, Brown Co., Texas. We do know that some of these families came from LaGrange, Troup Co., GA to Upshur Co., Texas about 1853. William Johnson's parents are Moses and Celia REYNOLDS DAY. We believe that both are buried somewhere in Upshur. Any help with this family would be appreciated. -- Joyce DAY AUSTIN <jaau@airmail.net> Researching VA, GA, TN, TX: DAY, COLE, FORMBY, MOORE, DAVIS TX: SLOCUM, HENDRIX, BRITTON VA, TN, TX: AUSTIN, WOOD, RUSSELL RED RIVER CO, TEXAS: HALL, MARTIN Home page: http://web2.airmail.net/jaau/index.htm
