There has also a woman that has worked on that line. I have Desdemonia Ware as secomd wife to my John Thomas Goodwin of Haynesville. No issue. Des Deemonia "Dezzie" Ware and was born on December 20 1865 and died on July 29, 1939. Desdemonia Ware was the daughter of Anthony House Ware and Mary H. Harper Anthony was born May 18, 1836 and died January 26, 1911 in Columbia AR. Mary H. Harper was the daughter of Samuel Harper and Mary Ainsworth Their children were Benjamin Franklin Ware, Eady Elizabeth Ware,Sophronia Ware, Mary Evelyn Ware( then Desdemonia ) next Parthilona Ware, Sarah Melinda,James Miles "Jim" Ware and Mittie Jane "Sweet" Ware. James Miles "Jim" Ware married Parolee Owen She had never been married when she became the second wife of John Thomas Goodwin. At the time of their marriage on September 10, 1905, she was 39 years old and he was 58 years old. John Thomas' youngest child, Robert, was 19 years old, so raising the children was not a factor in re-marriage for him. Grave beside J.T.

Hi, Hmmm... I am in the same boat. Simeon Bethea Thomas b. 1800 father is Benjamin Thomas, Sr. I figure his mother was a Bethea since Simeon also, has a brother Tristram Bethea Thomas and David Bethea Thomas. We don't know who Benjamin Thomas, Sr married. 2nd - John Thomas Hudson b. dec9,1850 in Farmerville, Union Parish,LA His parents were Susan Acree and Joseph C. Hudson.

We have but it's been awhile. How are you. I'm still not sure how to connect my Bethea. I only know my GGGG-Grandmother was Hope Bethea married to Shadrach Rogers. My Hudson is Virginia Hudson in DeSoto Parish, Louisiana. I don't have much info on her. She married a Miller.

Thank you so much Kelly for all of the Census on the Claiborne Parish page, has helped relieve all of the sadness this week by looking at evey page of the 1860 Census, looking for Jefferson W. Cook and think I found him and maybe some of my Goodson Family that were there duing that time frame. The Census is very easy to navigate and read, making it easy to get through all of the pages very quickly. Thanks again so very much.

Yes, I did check the website for this marriage but as the 1850 census shows, they had a son born in 1848 so were married before that time. I am looking for a source of church records or ? since I saw there was a courthouse fire as you pointed out. Any suggestions?

Janet, There is a reference to John Gwinn on page : http://searches1.rootsweb.com/usgenweb/archives/la/claiborne/history/claibhi s.txt

Janet did you scroll down and click on Parish History in the menu? That will take you to the transcribed book.There are more than one file of them. The first file deals with the early beginnings of La and on down to Claiborne Parish . A great many names are found listed among the History of Claiborne Parish. Try again you might have to read a bit but if you find a nugget it is worth it all. <http://www.rootsweb.com/~usgenweb/la/claiborne/parish.htm> Good Luck .
