Cross-posting this one, so thansk for looking!! Hello, fellow listers. I have not been on here, for some time, and now have a question, which may provide someone out there with a clue, or perhpas better, bring me a clue!! William Adam DINWIDDIE was born in Greene Co., TN., early in the 1800's, and was among many who followed Stephen F. AUSTIN and his associates to Texas, before the War against Mexico, which the 'Texicans' won, in 1836!! William was a 'transporter' for AUSTIN, and made many wagon trips from and to Texas, escorting immigrants who were persuaded to leave the then-present USA, having been promised good land and safety for their families! On one such trip, one family who travelled with him from Arkansas consisted of the husband, John O'BARR, M.D., and his wife, Rebecca Catharine HAYNES O'BARR and two young children (possibly three)!! In the long run, Dr. O'BARR was deceased, and the widow and Mr. William Adam DINWIDDIE were married, from which union came my mother's father!! If anyone looking at this list knows more of this family, (there is no O'BARR rootsweb list!) please contact me, since they are now in focus, a bit better, for me, and I would appreciate the opportunity to share with someone else, what we (mutually) may know about them!! Thanks for your kind attention!!
