    1. [TNWAYNE] Early Migration from Wayne Co. Tn. to Tx.
    2. Grover Pope
    3. My relatives that migrated to Tx. from Wayne Co. Tn. James C. Gullick b abt 1781 in NC. migrated to Wayne Co. Tn. He died in Wayne Co. in abt 1858 as this is when his will was dated. He owned a good deal of land on the Rockhouse Creek on the Buffalo River. After his death his son Larkin Stowe Gullick and his widow Jane Gullick were the Administers of the will. They sold the land to a neighbor who only paid of the money down on the land. A few years later one of his son-in-laws,, Anderson Churchwell suied this man for the remainder of the money. I have a copy of the law suit that is diff to read but can make out this. Larkin Stowe with family , mother and two sisters moved to Tx. This does not state the county. They must have moved thru the state of Ark. This mentions the dau Jane A. who m John Voohies was residing in Tx. in 1880. Also that Larkin Stowe's family had moved back to Ark. One dau ,Lucille Kerr m Nathan McCanless had died in May of 1872 in Madisen Co. Ark. Her husband gave a despision on her behalf and mentioned this. In 1881 Nathan F. McCanless was living in the town of Huntsville in Madisen Co. Ark. I do not know if the son Larkin Stowe Gullick was in this Co. or not. I have a little data on the Voorhies in Tx. but nothing on the Larkin S. Gullick or the McCanless families. James Clark Gullick was my third Ggfather. Hid dau Margarett Elinor m Anderson Churchwell in 1844, my gggparents. I live in Tn. and know nothing of the Counties of Tx. and Ark. Grover Pope , Dyer Co. Tn.

    3. My family migration pattern from TN to TX is as follows: James Hill Casey, b. 1813 in SC had moved to Wayne Co., TN perhaps by 1820 with parents (?not sure who his parents were). He married Jane Turnbow, dau. of Hugh Turnbough/Turnbow in 1832. They had 7 children or so there and in 1851 (probably Dec. 1851) moved to Williamson Co., TX. James Hill Casey was considered a "Pioneer" of Williamson Co., TX (and his photo appears in the courthouse in Georgetown, county seat of that county), but moved late in life to Young Co., TX with a son John Wesley Casey, dying there in 1901, and is buried in Farmer, TX. His son Willis, who I descend from, born 1832 in Wayne Co., TX is buried in Florence, Williamson Co., TX. Most of this is outlined at my webpage at http://www.casey-genealogy.com Thanks, dlc
