Author: Fuzzface Surnames: Classification: queries Message Board URL: http://boards.rootsweb.com/localities.northam.usa.states.texas.counties.burnet/2778.2/mb.ashx Message Board Post: I found a letter written in Aug 1884 by D. T. Standefuss of Smithwick, Burnet Co, Tx, to J. B. Laws about S. L. Green having a daughter according to J. C. Rollins. J. B. Laws was a founder of the church that Lawson Green attended and J. C. Rollins was John Calvin Rollins, older brother of Rhoda, the mother of Lawson's child. The letter mentioned Lawson doing some preaching in the church. It was probably a Disciples of Christ or Church of Christ. Does anyone know if either denomination has a church in Smithwick from 1884?

TX Vital Records - The Texas Vital Statistics law to register births and deaths was not passed until 1903. Texas was then and is now a dual registration state which means the local registrars retain a copy of all birth and death records for the events that take place within their jurisdiction and the state retains the original of all birth and death records for the entire State of Texas. However, the statutes for registering these events were not made mandatory until 1926. However, many local registrars did not adhere to the statutes until the late 1930's or early 1940's. This means some records reside only in the local registrars' files and not with the State.
