Dear Fellow Listers; I am seeking the birth place of my Great Grand Father, William D. George b March 1849 MO. I have gleaned this from Gillespie Co., TX census 1880, 1900, 1910. He does not appear on the 1920 census and I assume he was dead. In the 1870's William was a cattle hand on the Moss Ranch in adjacent Llano County, he fought Indians at the battle of Pack Saddle Hill and on Sept. 18, 1879 married my GGM Henrietta (Ettie) Solomon b 1861 GA. William was widowed by 1900 and Ettie's Mother, (the widow of Godwin Solomon b 1813 GA) Mary Jane (Roberts) Solomon b 1833 GA, moved onto the farm to tend the four children; William Lawrence (My GF b July 21, 1880) Euphamia, Enock and Francis George. By 1910 William had sold his farm and relocated across the county in Willow City. He there owned and operated a general store, until it was destroyed by fire. No more is known of William D. George. My block wall has been for years - his birth place. Any one researching this line or believing they may be related is encouraged to reply. David W .

David; We are probably cousins. I believe that Wm. D. George was a brother of Anna L. George, that married a Mustain. They were from up in the Hickory and Dallas Co. area of MO. Now, Anna was born in Pittsylvania Co., VA; before meeting and marrying Mustain in Marshall Co., TN. Several of the Mustains and Georges then ended up in the aforementioned counties. Later the folks went down to the Benton Co., AR and McDonald Co., MO area. THey crossed back and forth there. I will do some more checking and let you know what I find. The George folks are difficult; but there are several folks out there that can help. I am wondering if your Wm. was indeed born in MO; or could have been born in TN or VA? He is younger than Anna, so it is certainly possible he was born in MO. There is a stretch from up in Hickory, Dallas, Polk and Greene county where these folks lived. They seemed to move about a lot and appear in several of the censuses for the area.

Hi Folks. I am new to this list and I am researching Schreiner and Hamilton in Jasper and Newton counties. And Branham in Newton, Stone and Lawrence counties. My main lines are Louis Schreiner and wife Evalyn Mae McNutt (Yes that is how they spelled Evalin, she was also called Eva.) Andrew Jackson hamilton son of Jackson Hamilton and further information on his Daughter Berthe "Betty" Hamilton, first wife of Everett R. Schreiner in 1928. And Samuel/Sampson Branham and his daughter Anice "Annie" Branham who was the second wife of Andrew Jackson Hamilton. I have information on these persons but am seeking to find other cousins who might be able to give additions to what I have. Andrea "Andee (Schreiner) Heslin andee@columbus.rr.com
