I hit the delete on the response to Karen of CA re: finding cemeteries in Erath Co. Would someone please forward that to me again? We leave for TX later in the week, and plan to spend time in the Dublin, Thurber and Stephenville areas. We are looking for more information on my husbands' lines. His father was John Tolbert Blair b. 9/1/1900 in Dublin John T. Blairs' father: Andrew James (Mac) Blair b. ca 1856 in TX Hunt Co. probably mother: Susie Bendy Brown . b. ca 1869 in Texas. First spouse named Penny Mac was raised in Hunt Co according to census, but some of the Blair clan came early to Erath Co. Mac is buried by his mother Eveline (Evaline) in the old Dublin cemetery. Mac was a watchman at the cotton compress in 1900. Oral history said he had a saloon in Erath Co, He died in Thurber in 1907. This group came from SC>GA>TX arriving in Titus Co. in 1844 or early 45 Some of Mr. Wyly's info on Thurber give lots to ponder on. Wish those records were available. Thank you for what you are sharing! Susie was born in Texas, we do not know where. With a name of Brown, not very hopeful in tracking her line. The only clue is her middle name Bendy, which I speculate may be a family name. While an unusual name, I noted there are two listed in an Eastland Co. cemetery. Susie had at least two girls with Penny before he died. Of course I hope someone will be able to give us something more. Evaline had brothers and sisters who may have settled in Erath or Palo Pinto. Definitely in Hunt and Bosque. One called J. R. His boys went to school in Walnut Springs in Bosque Co. Names known include Tolbert, Elbert, William, James R. and a girl named Willie. Any descendants out there? Thank You! Regene Blair
