Grace (maiden name unknown) grew up near Gilmer in Upshur Co, TX. Mrs. BACCUS began researching her family history in 1958 and continued for many years before having to set her avocation aside to attend to other matters. She was a granddaughter of Henry Levi SEWELL, Jr. (b. ca. 1845 GA), who was a son of Henry Levi & Elizabeth (ADERHOLD) SEWELL from Franklin Co, GA. They moved to TX about 1870 and are buried in Bryan, Brazos Co, TX. Grace mentioned an Aunt Willie and had a sister-in-law by the name of ANDERSON whose parents were reared in TX. Grace had two daughters: one of them (name not given), whose husband had died "many years ago" as of 1978, resided in Slidell, St. Tammany Par, LA; the other daughter, Jean (Mrs. J. R.) MATTHEWS, had resided overseas and most recently in Alaska before moving to Plano, Collin Co, TX, where she lived at 2400 Heather Hill Lane. Her husband was an oil company em! ployee who had to retire because of poor health. In 1978, they moved to Ardmore, Carter Co, OK. By this time, Grace BACCUS had broken up housekeeping and was living with one daughter for a while, then with the other, and much of her research was in storage. Any assistance in locating this cousin or her family would be appreciated. I have some information on the family and background of Henry L.& Elizabeth (ADERHOLD) SEWELL I would be glad to share.
