I realize the spelling is different but some of the messages I have been reading really makes me wonder. Well here goes and I can only hope for the best. Henry G. Nixson dob 1826 in Georgia. Dod 7-7-1877. He is buried in Hopewell Cemetery, Wood Co. Texas. Martha E. Harris dob 9-17-1835 in Alabama. Her parents were William Harris dob 1812 in South Carolina and Rachel ? 5-15-1815 in South Carolina. Dod 10-9-1879, buried in Hopewell Cemetery, Wood Co. Texas. Their children were William Downey born in Alabama, Rebecca Lugenia "Becky" 4-29-1855 in Alabama, John A. 1-24-1861 in Alabama, Sarah Emma 1-24-1868, Cary Lou Trilla 1-24-1872 in Louisiana, Mary Elizabeth 1874 in Quitman, Wood Co. Texas. The family story is that the family was moving from Alabama to Texas when Cary Lou Trilla was born in Louisiana near the Texas border. Information I have recently received indicates that Henry and Martha Nixson owned a horse farm in Louisiana and when a daughter ran of with a groom the family came also. Who knows? Any help would be appreciated. The surnames I seek are HARRIS, NIXSON, TOLBERT, BYNUM, MURPHREE, BULLARD, CLIFTON, WEBB, PHILIPS, MILLS AND SCOTT.
