Page 2A Sunday, May 4,1896 Brownwood Bulletin Services for James Thaxton Evans, 93, of Bangs will be held at 2 p.m. today at Davis-Morris Funeral Home, with the Rev. Eddie Freeman officiating. Burial will be in Greenleaf Cemetery. He died at 3:15 p.m. Friday at a Bangs nursing home after a long illness. Born Dec. 11, 1892 in Aransas Pass, he married Allida Ferguson in 1918. She died in 1946 and he married Rosa Howard in Brown County in 1948. A retired meat cutter and stock farmer, he was a member of the Bangs First Baptist Church, the Brownwood Masonic Lodge No. 279, and the Shriners. He had been a Mason since 1917, and had lived in Brown County since 1936. Survivors include his wife; a daughter, Mrs. Duff (Geraldine) Lane of Azle; a granddaughter; a great- granddaughter; and a number of nieces and nephews. The family requests that memorials be made in the form of donations to the Shriner's Children Hospital or to any favorite charity.

Rebecca, I live in Brownwood and I would be glad to do lookups for you as my time permits. I sure would hate to see the list discontinued because of no host or hostess. I have connections to the LEE family but not sure that our families are connected. Patsy in Brown Co., Tx.

Thank you, Mary! As I said, I feel like I have won an award. I am sorry for your health problems and hope you recover swiftly. I will try to do a good job (with the help of others here) on the Brown Co. webpage and this list. If anyone has info or can help with transcribing with the info, please just send it my way. Thank you again, Mary. And thank you everyone that has volunteered to help get info online!

Thank you very much, Patsy! I think this could be a fun project. I know I enjoy doing Jefferson Co., OK. And the Url of York (for all York researchers) website. Of course, it's no fun if it just sits stagnent and that's why info from you and whoever else can supply it, would be so beneficial to all Brown Co., researchers. Any and all records having to do with the area and it's past, would be a great addition. I'll keep your email.

Rebecca, I live in Austin, TX. I have access to the State library in Austin and I am a fairly short drive to Brownwood. My particular interest are the families of the Grosvenor area. I am willing to help as much as I can. I have sooo much information that I could share, too... as I said most pertains to the Grosvenor families. I am a descendant of the MARR and FRY lines.

Pam, That would be great! Any and all info pertaining to Brown County is what we're after, right? I love doing webpages, love helping others find info and connections, and love searching myself. It's not set that I'll be taking over - but the concern from Mary was where I am located. My concern, also, because it'd be nice to have a great site (maybe modelled after Wise County - great site and CC's there!) but, we can only have one with imput from those that can get or that have info to put online. Thanks, Pam..............for your offer of info~!

Per conversation w/ Mary yesterday - I have offered to take over Brown Co. list and website. Problem is I live in northern Idaho. Would there be anyone willing to get me data and info for the site? I really have limited access to any Brown Co. info. I would then be sure to get it up onliine ASAP. So - if someone is willing (or several) to supply and send any and all Brown Co., TX info, history, etc. etc. - we could do this........together. I now host Jefferson Co., OK website and 'oversee' a few other maillists - inc. Jefferson Co. OK.

I am looking for this info on James Thaxton Evans. He was born in Callahan Co., TX on 12/11/1892 and died in Brown Co., TX in May of 1986. His last residence was Bangs, TX. I would like to have the text of this obit to find any living relatives. James Thaxton was my mother's first cousin, and we know little of this family, as my mother's parents moved to Northern Indiana when she was very young. I am happy to reciprocate by looking up info in the Nashville, TN area. Thanks for any help you can provide.

I have to resign as Host for the Brown County Mail List and the Brown County Web page for health reasons. I would like for someone to take over these responsibilities. If you are interested please get in touch with me. Thank you. Mary Bonsal [email protected]

They have many children who moved to Brown Co. and settled Brownwood. I was thinking that it is possible that Nancy had brothers/ uncles etc... that may have come with her to Texas.

That Allen Smith and Mary Moseley were married in Cherokee County about 1850, moved to Brown County about 1870 and can be found in Llano County in 1880 with a daughter named Laura. Sorry to say I have no information on that family after 1880. Hope that helps and good luck. GC

I went to the site and signed up and got a return e-mail today with confirmation number, but have not used it as yet . After reading several other mails about this site I'm rather leery myself. If i decide to go there I will let you know what I found. Patsy in Brown co., Tx. P.S. Just got a message from Pam posted to the Brown Co. message board that she got a virus e-mail about the same time she got her registration reply from that web site. I will not be using that research site. Thank you, Pam.
