I have a different name for the mother of Sarah Erwin Marlin from an old Erwin family Bible. This Bible had her listed as Eliza A. McKenzie, the daughter of John McKenzie. On the 1860 Falls Co., TX census, A.J. and Eliza were living next door to her uncle, Henry J. McKenzie. Henry and John McKenzie were the sons of Lacy McKenzie and Nancy James. Sarah and Jack Erwin named their son Samuel (after Jack's father) Lacy Erwin. Have anymore info on this--or know how to contact a Jones descendant?

My husband is related to Sarah Erwin Marlin, who I think is Dovie's mother. Sarah's half-brother was his g-grandfather. I'm trying to find someone who knows about Sarah's mother, Eliza McKenzie Erwin, who died in Falls Co., TX.

Surnames: JONES, EVANS Classification: Query Message Board URL: http://boards.ancestry.com/mbexec/msg/rw/0hB.2ACE/1511 Message Board Post: The 1880 census of Falls County, Texas shows William H. Jones age 26 born in Mississippi with wife Fannie (Evans) Jones age 25 born in Louisiana and daughter Lettie age 5 born in Mississippi and daughter Maggie age 1 born in Texas. This means he arrived in Falls County between 1875 and 1879. Rumor is he drowned while crossing Big Sandy River during a flood and the bridge collapsed. William H. Jones was the son of James D, Jones of Scott County, Mississippi. Anyone know of this family?

Hello to the list; I'm looking for any information on the William Jones Hart Family, which relocated from IN to Falls Co., TX, near Durango... around 1870. I do not know if Gabriel Hart, Wm's father made the trip and I am especially trying to locate him in either Spencer Co. IN, Glass TWP or with the family in Durango. The connecting Families that I know would be: Hahn; Westmoreland; Boyd; Buster; and Crews. I have some more dates, and given names if anyone has interest. William Jones Hart is my G/GF, Gabriel my GG/GF and I would appreciate any information that anyone may have. Thanks for taking the time with me and good hunting to all. Sam Hart Grand Prairie,
