It has been a while since I posted this and since there seem to be new members I will try again. I am looking for the parents of George Alexander Gordon who was born 4 November 1822 somewhere in Georgia. He married Margaret Adeline Gray, d/o Alexander Gray III and Susannah Vanderbilt, 26 October 1843 probably in Mississippi. They were in Scott Co., Mississippi in 1850. By 1856 Margaret and 6 of their 8 children were dead. George and the two surviving children moved to Cherokee Co., Texas before George remarried there in 1857. George later moved to Bosque Co., TX where he died 12 March 1884. Children by Margaret were: Charles Alexander, Caroline Malinda, James W., John T., Franklin P., Frances M., Joseph P., and George H. Charles and Caroline were the only two to make the move to Texas. Children by the second wife were: Cynthia E., Amanda Elizabeth, Mary A., Martha and William B. Charles Alexander Gordon was my g-grandfather. He married first, Lucy Gill and had George Mills Gordon (born in Cherokee Co.. He married Amanda Elizabeth Heflin second and had: James Gray, an infant daughter who was probably still born, Daniel Edward, Mittie Ethell, Mary Adaline, John Morgan, an infant son who was probably stillborn, Martha Louera, William David, Frances Ruth and Charles Wesley (all born in Bosque Co). John Morgan Gordon was my grandfather. Margaret McCleskey, Arlington, TX
