Martha A. Griffin m. WILLIAM A. COLE. Martha A. GRIFFIN COLE died in Meridan, Miss. in l890. I do not know if any of their children migrated to Anderson Co., Tx. I have not got that far in my research. You see Martha A. Griffin was a half sister to My Michael Sheppard Griffin who came to Anderson Co., Tx and married Amanda Frances Cook on 20 Aug. l883. Amanda Frances Cook was the granddaughter of Roanna Willingham. Roanna and her husband George A. Robertson migrated to Anderson Co., Tx with many of her married sisters from Al., thru Ark. arriving about l852. Many of the people in Bushy Creek migrated from Al. and Tenn. Fayette Co., Al is on the border of Tenn. Wish I could be of more help.
