T. McCoy. My grandfather was William Thomas McCoy. My great grandfather was John McCoy. My great great grandfather was Hiram Horace McCoy. I was born in Tyler, Texas. It seems William Thomas and Talitha Rebecca Lane McCoy bought 166 acres not far from Tyler, Texas. It is still in the original tract today. Your William would have been my John's eldest brother. It is nice to make your acquaintance. I sure would like to know more about your branch of our McCoy's. It would be great if I could visit the original home place and the gravesites of my McCoys. I can't wait to tell my siblings that we have met. If you wish to e-mail privately please e-mail me at gishpar@windstream.net. I would more than excited to hear more from you. I am glad to have met another cousin. Anxiously awaiting to hear from you. Patricia Ruskauff
