Posted on: DeSoto Parish La Query Forum Reply Here: http://genconnect.rootsweb.com/~genbbs/genbbs.cgi/USA/La/DeSoto/762 Surname: Waddell ------------------------- We are looking for a James C. (Christopher?) Waddell that may have bee born in Logansport, LA 01/12/1865. He later lived in Itasca, TX where he married a Lovina McCarty who was also from Logansport, LA. They moved to Marysville, TX where they had a son named Travis Palmer Waddell who was born in 1900. James died in Marysville in 1906 and is buried in the Marysville, TX cemetary. Hope someone can help we are stalled out on Kames C. Waddell and need a birth place, confirmation of the date and his parents names. We are in western New York state so the research on this is difficult without help. Perhaps the 1870 census of that area? He should have been about 5 then.
