I believe my 2nd great-grandparents were married in Anderson Co., but I am not sure. Their names are Henry Sinnigson/Sinningson and Mary Nolley/Nollie. I have a date of 19 July 1882, but I cannot confirm it without a marriage record. Thank you, Karen

The best thing is to write the Texas State Archives, Austin, TX and ask what is in his file, if he went to war from TX. If you are close enough to Austin for a day trip, it would be worth it. If he or his wife lived untill TX started the pension plan, you would get valuable info about the family. Try the internet to find out if they have a file on him. If you live closer to Houston, they have the confederate records on micro film at Clayton Research Library. Dallas Public Library probaly does too. In 1986 when I started researching, a several friends and I would get together every month or so, leave Galveston County at 0500 hours, stop in Brenham at Mcdonalds for bath room and coffee break, then be in Austin by the time that the Archives opened (not open on Sat.). We called them "killer trips" because we left when the library closed at 5 PM, stopped in Brenham at a steak house, had dinner and were home by ten. To tired to look at our finds, but happy to have made the trip. Happy researching.

Surnames: Smith, Cecil, Emerson Classification: Query Message Board URL: http://boards.ancestry.com/mbexec/msg/rw/XiB.2ACI/1342 Message Board Post: This lady was my great grandmother and married my great grandfather, Samuel Hall Smith in Palestine, April 11, 1878. I have traced the Smith side and they moved to Mena, Arkansas sometime in the early 1880's after my grandfather, Ernest Reagan Smith, was born. I have tried to track her down as a Cecil, but would like to know who the Emerson is and/or was she an Emerson. She died in 1895 in Mena where I think she was originally from. My grandfather came back to Palestine in 1904-5 and married my grandmother Dorothy Anderson.

Greetings, lists: At a meeting of the Van Zandt County Historical Commission today, the dedication of a Texas State Historical Marker for John H. Reagan was announced as being set for May 18, 2003 at 2 p.m. in the district courtroom of the Van Zandt County Courthouse in Canton. Several folks wondered if the Commission had knowledge of any of this man's descendants, but none were known. I am sending this to the list in hopes that, if someone is a descendant, they will contact me. John H. Reagan was a member of the Texas militia and participated in the Cherokee War in Van Zandt County and was present when Chief Bowles (Cherokee) was killed. He was district judge in Van Zandt County from 1853 to 1857, served as a delegate to the Confederate Provisional Congress in 1861, and was Postmaster General of the Confederate States of America. IN addition, he was part of the constitutional convention of 1876, was elected to the U.S. Congress in 1875, and was a U.S. Senator from 1887 until 1891. IN 1891, he began serving as chairman of the Texas Railroad Commission, which had been recently created by the Texas Legislature. He retired to Palestine in Anderson County and was buried there. If you are a descendant or know of a descendant, please call me at (903) 567-4000 or email. Vince Leibowitz
