Hi Lena. John Geter Baker b. Jul 1842 in AL. and his infant son, Charles arrived in Falls Co. TX with the Charles Webb Kinard family. They are listed together on the 1870 census. I haven't made a clear Baker connection to the Kinard family, at this time, except he could have been married to Sarah F. or Mary E., older daughters of Charles W. and Elizabeth P. Hill Kinard. John Geter married Johanna Kinard, (3rd daughter of Charles and Elizabeth's) on 13 Sep 1871 in Falls Co. Besides Charles, they had seven children together: William Abner b. Jun 1873 (my husband's grandfather-m. Annie Judidiah Woodall); Minerva b. @1877; Pearl b.@1878; Ida A. b.Sep 1880 (m. Christopher Columbus McCollum); Mary b. Nov 1884; Frank John b. Dec 1886 (m. Grace M. Davis and Lillie Belle? )and Alma b. Oct 1893 (m. Mitty Baker of Nacogdoches Co. TX.) One of the other Baker girls married Mitty Baker's brother, according to my husband's dad. William Abner is the only one that I have any information on. About the only thing I know about the Kinards, I got at Ancestry. com. Please let me hear from you about your Baker connection.

I am looking for the children of Frank John BAKER b. 21 Dec 1886, Falls Co. and d. 28 Sep 1962 in Falls Co. His children were: Bernard Frank b. 1910; Millard Osborn b. @ 1912; Bruce Arnold b. 1915 and Doris b. @ 1920. Doris married Thomas C. DOWNES. I am, also, looking for the children of Francis (Frank) Marion WOODALL b. 10 Aug 1858 in Greene Co. AL and d. 02 Apr 1926 in Falls Co. He and Cinderella Dixie SHEPPARD had 14 children: Wyley C., Annie Judidiah (m. Baker), Frankie Cinderella (m. Parsons), George W., Lizora, Jessie, Sidney S., Curtis S. Bella (Bessie) (Jones), Minnie (Mozelle)(m. Frank), Marshall, Verneal, Rex and Ozell. I have absolutely no information on the SHEPPARDS. Charles Webb KINARD and Elizabeth Paulina HILL lived at Blue Ridge and are buried at the Bremond Cemetery. If there are any Kinard's still in Falls Co., I would love to hear from them.

In the 1880 census for Falls County, I found H.W. Black listed living "next" to my great, great grandfather's farm (Lott Leguin Godfrey). Apparently he is the second husband of my maternal great, great grandmother, N. Elizabeth Byrd Lewis Black. H.W. Black is listed as a school teacher at 63 years of age. Is there any record of teachers at work in the county at this time? Thanks for your help.

My Grt-Grandfather died in Falls county in 1906 and I found record of his death logged in a note book or journal kept there in the "Deeds, etc" office in the courthouse... so you may need to enlist help there in Marlin to look in the same for record of the death of your George Batey.

Actully I need help with the 1910 and the 1920. Thanks so much!!!!!!!!!!! I NEED HELP!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Andrea monkees5@msn.com

Does anyone have an index for the 1920 census? I have tried everything and every way I know to locate J W (John Wesley) Monk on the 1910 census. J W was married in Falls co. in 1892-to Grace Carroll. He was living in Milam county TX on the 1900 census. His wife was supposedly dead by 1907. He has been found in and around Freestone county also. On his obit though it states that he was along time resident of the west Texas area. He was found in Hale county in 1926 and on the 1930 census for Lubbock co.. I cannot locate him from 1900-1926. He had 2 more children after the 1900 census. Their names are Mary Ann and Estelle. I found his girls in Hall county in 1930 with their husbands. Their last names were Robbins and Vice. The name Robbins was misspelled on the census Robins. I have tried looking under the girls names for the 1910 census too but with NO luck. I need a suggestion or some help if some one might have the index. I open to any ideas!!!!!!!!! I NEED HELP!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Andrea monkees5@msn.com
