Dora: Did any of you Wakefield's or Sawyer's marry into a Wright or Stovell family in TX My grandfathers sister Edith Wright Holley/Holly b 1838 married Thomas Holley b 1832 in LCT. Three of their sons went to TX one settling in Italy, Ellis CO., TX Another sister Anna Wright b 1851 married Samuel T. Stephenson. When she died in LCT Samuel went to TX and remarried. His is buried in Commerce, Hunt CO. TX My grandfather James Franklin Wright, sibling to the above, married Willie Etta Armstrong 1883 in LCT. The person that signed the bond for him was J. P. Wakefield. Do not know who that person was? Does any of this ring any bells? We also have a Jane Stovell married a David Wright. David died in 1831 LCT. One of their daughters married a Wakefield. Some of Jane and Davids children went to TX. This is not my line but several of us are researching all Wrights of Middle, TN.

Do you have anything on this Elizabeth and Will McAfee? Thanks, Dortha

I am interested in the SAWYERS line you speak of. Any information one might have on Sawyers will be so much appreciated. I think there may be a typo where Gaylon Sawyers married a Wakefield in Lincoln Co., TX. Probably should be TN.

Grace, You are right. That should be TN. I corrected it immediately, but that was a seperate e-mail. Sorry for the confusion. I've very interested in learning more about the Wakefield family. My great grandmother, Elizabeth Pigg Wakefield McKinney, married a Wakefield first and they had three children. I know nothing about him, only that he was born IL. I can tell from census records where the children were born and their ages: Charles Wakefield was born 1831, TN; Delia Ann Wakefield was born 1834, NC; and Sarah E was born 1836 (March 17), TN (Lincoln Co., TN) Their father was born in IL. I will appreciate any help.
