Didn't realize there were so many Peggys on the Erath site and sorry for any confusion. I will sign off with location also each time. I have deep roots in Erath County also with family still living there. I am researching the following surnames in Erath; BARNETT, CHRISTOPHER, KILCREASE, LANGFORD, LOWRIMORE etc, STONE. I am kin to all Kilcrease names in Erath and the majority of the Stone names. I also have learned a lot from the site and truly appreciate hearing all the stories and information pertaining to it's history. Any information on the above surnames is deeply appreciated and I am more than glad to share what I have with others. I am researching John Allison of TN who took his family around 1830 to Arkansas and was on the wagon train that came to Texas with the Parker Family. John Allison's son William F named Cynthia Ann Parker in his will. Our Allison research group does not know the reason for this at this time. John Allison's sons William F, Elihu C and James A are named as early settlers of the state of Texas and all receiving land grants in East Texas when Texas was a Republic. Elihu and James A went on to Williamson County and settled until their death. My mother was a Christopher living in Erath and Hamilton counties but descended from that Allison family.
