Carol, I can't add any thing to what David has alreaded given you on the Hoppers; however, the Jacob Johnson that Charles and Louisa Hopper were living with in the 1850 was my great uncle. Also, I have another Charles Hopper that may be a son or a nephew to the Charles Hopper who was married to Louisa. The Charles Hopper, Jr. married into my Adams family. Please see my web site at the address below, which I have not updated in a while, but if you see any thing that might help let me know.

Carol, I find very little more than you have shown. Apparently Louisa married Charles Hopper, Sr. before 1850. Jacob Johnson may have been married to one of his daughters. Louisa's daughter, Elizabeth Frost age 12, also lived with them. An inquest on 01 October 1855 found that Charles Hopper fell or was thrown from a horse in the lane near Saltillo on 24 September 1855 which resulted in his death. Jacob Johnson was administrator of his estate. In 1850, Zechariah Frost, age 15 lived with James M. Hooks. William C. Frost, age 16, lived with Meady White.

Is anyone researching any WILLIAMS family that was in Lauderdale County, Alabama about 1850 ? I need information on a Sarah Maragret Williams. She married David Wilson Howell in 1851. I need information on her family. Sarah Margaret Williams died in Hardin County, Tennessee in the 1870's and is buried there. Thanks, SteveCooper [email protected]

Lee - I'm researching the GAMMILL (GAMMEL, GAMBILL ) family through LUCINDA GAMMILL (GAMMELL) who married MARCUS LAFAYETTE DALTON. Here's something I received from a descendent last year... I'm NOT a relative of either the Gammills or Daltons, just researching for an article on Dalton for an historical magazine. However, should you find a connection for LUCINDA GAMMILL (GAMMELL), I'd appreciate your sharing, if you don't mind?? HER parents were William & Sarah [Ward] Gammill) and Marcus L. Dalton were born in 1819 in Tennessee.... Sharon Cunningham ================================================================= Dear Ms. Cunningham, Please accept my apology for the long delay in my reply. Genealogy is a hobby that competes, and often loses, against the demands of my small business. Like yourself, I am not a member of the Dalton family. However, Lucinda Gambill (b. 1819) would be my 3C5R, and thus, any children of her marriage to Marcus Lafayette Dalton would be cousins. I know very little about Marcus Dalton, but have obtained one extensive note on his life (copy inserted below). The text reads like an article written upon the demise of Lucinda Dalton. However, a computer problem in 2002 wiped out most of my reference database, and for this particular item I am unable to provide a proper citation or offer assurance that it is free of copyright. Let me know if I can be of further assistance. Regards, Douglas -- Douglas B.

Dalton, one of the first settlers of Palo Pinto County, paid with his life to help open the road to civilization in northwest Texas. He and his wife settled on a ranch at the mouth of Rock Creek on the Brazos River in Palo Pinto County in 1855. On this ranch they turned loose seventy head of cattle which they brought with them to their pioneer ranch home. Ten years later 800 cattle were driven up the trail and sold for $16,000. The next year 1000 head were sold for $22,000. The money for his cattle was received in gold and when safely home from each trip Dalton buried his money on the ranch for safe keeping as there were then no banks in that section of Texas. In 1869 Dalton took 600 head of cattle to Kansas up the Chisholm Trail and sold them for $15,000 in gold. He was away on that trip six months. He made the return home safely as far as Weatherford. With him he brought many supplies for the ranch including two new wagons, in one of which were two trunks containing clothes for Mrs. Dalton and their daughters. There were five mules and fourteen saddle horses in the train and assisting Dalton in the driving were James Redfield and James McCaster, two extra cowhands whom he had hired to help him on the homeward journey. The party spent the night in Weatherford with his daughter and her husband, Dr. and Mrs. J. J. Volentine. On the next morning, they continued their journey toward the ranch. Nearing Loving's Valley, on the Parker and Palo Pinto County line, their small party was suddenly attacked by thirty or more Indians who had hidden behind a fallen live oak tree in the trail. The three settlers were instantly killed and their bodies riddled with arrows. They were scalped and left where they fell. They were found the next day by Green Lassiter, one of Dalton's neighbors, who took the bodies to Weatherford for burial. After murdering their helpless victims the Indians pillaged the wagon train, prying open the trunks of clothing and took away everything that struck their fancy. They then made a hasty retreat with the mules and horses. In the toe of an old boot in a trunk tray, Dalton had hidden the remainder of his cattle money which amounted to $11,500. This particular boot, had held no interest for the savages and was later returned to Mrs. Dalton with its fortune. Mrs. Dalton was left with a large family but was a true pioneer mother and met her vicissitudes and heartbreaks with a smile. She bravely carried on and today has many descendants who revere her memory. The children of Marcus and Lucinda Dalton were: William C. Dalton, George, John, Charlie A., Robert S., G. Lee, Sarah Dalton Denton, Mary Dalton Herrin and Jennie Dalton Volentine."

She is the daughter of M. and Alice GAMMILL and has a sister named Lea. From other census information I suspect that the "M" stands for Milas. If this is correct, Milas is the son of Archibald and Elizabeth GAMMILL. I also suspect that Emma died prior to 1900 when Albert Sidney BARNHILL remarried.

David, Denise and Tom: My gg grandparents, James Nicholas and Susannah (Unknown) Maddox were in the home of Jessie B. Dobbins on the 1860 census of Hardin Co. In the 1870 census, Susannah and her son Jessie were still in the home of Jessie B. Dobbins but James N. Maddox was no longer there. Does anyone know if Susannah was a daughter of Jessie B. Dobbins? Any help appreciated. See home page at the address below. Ed. ----------------------------- See home page at: http://freepages.genealogy.rootsweb.com/~adams1895

Here's what little I have on their children (my 3C2R), just their names..... Thomas W. DOBBINS m Mary SPENCER Jess DOBBINS m Jennie HARRISON Cenia DOBBINS m Herron HURST Annie DOBBINS m Lum TURNER Ella DOBBINS m Lewis FREEMAN Susie DOBBINS m Jim FREEMAN I'd appreciate any help or family connection.

Hi David, I'm not sure if he is the right Jesse Dobbins. How many can there have been in Savannah? My grandfather's sister was Mary 'Mollie' Spencer who married Thomas W Dobbins. Their son, Carl, was the one who was killed on death row in Texas, and his brother was Jesse Dobbins, born in 1891. I believe he was born in Savannah. Denise Denise, I don't know much about the Dobbins family. In 1850, Jesse B. Dobbins lived next door to the John Polk family. 1850 Census, Hardin Co., TN 3rd C. D. 48-48 John Polk 42 SC blacksmith Keziah 42 SC Catherine E. 13 SC William H. 10 TN Elias W. 7 TN Rebecca M. 5 TN America A. 2 TN 49-49 Jesse B. Dobbins 45 SC farmer Milly 43 TN Thomas W. 17 TN Jesse M. 14 TN John W. 12 TN Mary J. 8 TN When the Civil War came along, apparently these two families were on apposing sides. One of the Dobbins boys shot and killed William H. Polk who was of the Confederate persuasion. Dobbins apparently had joined a local Federal unit. There are not many details, my information came down through the family of the Polks. William H. Polk was married to my distant cousin. Mary L. "Polly" Cagle. They had two children, Betty who married John Morris and Tennie who married Alexander Bain. William was buried in Bain Cemetery then moved to Mt. Herman. The rest of his family were buried at Mt Herman. Are you descended from this Dobbins family I have outlined above?

Yes, Jesse Dobbins, who was born in 1891, was one of Carl's brothers. Their mother was my grandfather's sister. Carl did kill his mother in law, but apparently it was an accident. He and his wife had seperated and she had moved home to her parents house with the kids. Carl was mad that he couldn't see his children, and in anger he shot through the front door, killing his mother in law. I have a couple of letters he wrote a cousin of ours from prison when he was on death row. That was in 1935. Denise ps any info you have on the Dobbins family I'd be interested in. ______________________________ >>

Columbus J. "Lum" Turner was a younger brother of my g/grandfather, Robert Finley Turner. Uncle Lum was born in 1862 and was the youngest son of Jesse and Nancy Finley Sorrells Turner. Robert Finley Turner married Aletha Jane Stanfield about 1884, raised a large family at Cross Roads and Bucktown, and moved most of them to Steele MO in 1917. From the Courier, August 9th 1901: Lum Turner died Thursday of last week leaving 3 young children. His wife (Annie Dobbins?) died 2 years before. Any one know what happened to these children?
