Herron. His full name, I believe is William Henry Steven R. Douglas Herron (not sure what the R. is) and he is my ggg grandfather. My direct lineage is: William Henry Steven R. Douglas Herron --> William Henry Douglas Herron --> Charles Simpson Herron --> Harold Dean Herron --> Dad --> Me. I was very excited about your posts, for while I know nearly everything from William Henry Douglas Herron down, I hadn't been able to find anything before his father WHSRD Herron. I would very much appreciate if you could share what you've learned. (Especially the Civil War part.I'm in Iraq myself now). I have most of the information from the time Mary Ann (I didn't know that she had remarried) and the troupe arrived in Missouri. I was tracking that she and WHSRD had 2 children, Ruhama C. (who died young in 1873 and is buried in Atchison County, MO) and William Henry Douglas Herron, who married Susan Rhetta Simpson (herself one of 15 children) and went on to have a quite prolific affect in the Rock Port (Atchison County) area with 12 children who in turn went on to make "Herron" one of the most, if not the most, common names in the area. I'd love to learn more about the lineage back from WHSRD and the other children from his first marriage.and the part you discussed with William A. I'll of course share all I have as well.
