Mary, Thanks so much for the info. Every little bit helps the pieces fit together! I hope to make a trip to Palestine very soon, It is beautiful, especially this time of year. The marriage cert. was the first concrete proof of his name for sure. W. H. died young and so did his son, Walter E., so there wasn't much info passed down. I will certainly check out your info, this is the first I've heard of J. D Johnston, I think I'll start there.

Hi Charlotte, I'm so glad you saw this and wrote, I e-mailed you a while back using the address from your old post, and I guess it did not get to you. I don't know if you remember me, I'm Tom and Ethel Johnston's grandaughter . I still live in their old house in Ben Hur next to Elwood and Patsy. Their daughter Teri also lives there now. I have looked and looked, and feel like it is probably right under my nose! There are so many misspellings and typos on these old records. I wanted to if I had any info you might not have, or visa versa. I'm trying to get what I can together so I can upload it so that others might be able to work on it too. It's really been driving me nuts. I know Elwood, Kent, and I think Jerry are also looking. I didn't know for sure that it was W. H., till I saw it on the marriage Cert. My daughter Frankie hope to go back to Anderson County very soon and spend all day looking. I've been using "Family Tree Maker" 2006 to try to get together all I can, if you can t! hink of any thing I can try, please let me know. My phone number is 254-749-9793, I would love to hear from you anytime. Thanks, Jill Johnston Oliver jjo41959@yahoo.com 1149 FM 339 S.

H. C. [or H. G.] and Mary J. Airheart and family are also in Tennessee Colony in the 1880 census. Verbal history has Sarah Elizabeth, Walter E., and Lillian moving to Limestone County along with Mary J. and her family. I can't find a date for the move, but I think they moved somewhere near Horn Hill, but my records are so "safely stored" that I can't get to them just now. Walter E. and Mattie were said to have met at a dance in Ben Hur or Horn Hill and we know they lived in Ben Hur after their marriage in ?1899?. Without either the 1890 census or the Family Bible it is very difficult to pin down data on the family between 1880 and 1899. I haven't had time to search Anderson County and Limestone County land records. Perhaps a cousin from the Morris, Airheart, or Johnston families will see these posts and fill in some more of the blanks. Thanx for the marriage info.

Verbal history has Sarah Elizabeth, Walter E., and Lillian moving to Limestone County along with Mary J. and her family. I can't find a date for the move, but I think they moved somewhere near Horn Hill, but my records are so "safely stored" that I can't get to them just now. Walter E. and Mattie were said to have met at a dance in Ben Hur or Horn Hill and we know they lived in Ben Hur after their marriage in ?1899?. Without either the 1890 census or the Family Bible it is very difficult to pin down data on the family between 1880 and 1899. I haven't had time to search Anderson County and Limestone County land records. Perhaps a cousin from the Morris, Airheart, or Johnston families will see these posts and fill in some more of the blanks. Thanx for the marriage info.

Does anyone have information or know someone with information on the Slocum Riot that took place in August of 1910? My Grandfather was a one legged man and he never spoke to me of how he lost his leg. I didn't learn what happened until after his death that he lost one leg in the Slocum riot. Any information about the riot would be greatly appreciated. Felix

James' dad was Millard Randolph Griffin and I would dearly love to know enough information to hook him up to possible parents James B. and Sarah J. Griffin.

Oscar Gertrude William George Clara Ora John Christian is my great, great grandparent along with her first husband, Morris McDaniel. They had one daughter, Hettie McDaniel and she and her family were in Cooke co. Texas. I have a copy of the marriage license of William and Christian, they married in Cooke co. Texas on July 17 1873. I know I probably have some notes from people working on this line and I'll try to see what I have. Write to me and tell me exactly what you know and need. Sandra skcc@flash.net
