Let me know if I can help you....I am familiar with the my Futch back ground and some of the Smith's too. My Mother and uncles are all still alive and can help out if you need some information. Pearl was born on Sept. 30th. That is my birthday too. Bruce and Pearl lived and died in Ladonia and are buried there in the Ladonia cemetary where grandpa worked to keep the grounds, mowing with the old push mower till he came home one day and dropped dead from a heart attack while reading the newspaper in his rocking chair. Hosea, Mom's little brother who died very early after swallowing a pecan hull that he managed to get into his mouth as a toddler, is also buried there. Mom was born in Windom and graduated in 1953 in Ladonia and we are going this summer to her 50th class reunion there. I hope that I will have time to go to the Clarksville cemetary where her sister Lorene's grave is and to put some flower! s on my grandparents graves. Let me know what exactly you are looking for and I will see if I can help you. SuLain Blackburn

The Fannin County map shows two cemeteries near Gober. On thier mileage scale one named Philadelphia is about 1-1/2 miles West of Gober going on Highway 68 and off 68 to the South. The other is unnamed, it may be a family cemetery. It also is South of 68 about 1/2 mile Southeast of Gober.

Without the 1890 census it is hard to know where they were between then and the 1900 census. I had two people email me on the Smith with attachments, but the virus protection kick up a fuss so, I didn't open them. I haven't been able to find out who they were. Wish they would email me again. I know there was a Preston Smith in Jackson Co., AL at the same time frame. I Wonder!!!. Thanks for the help. Pat

I just heard this morning that the cemetery in Gober is crowded and they are supposed to make it bigger.

I think you might be related to former Governor Preston Smith and he has an office at the univeristy in Lubbock, Txeas, I think it is Texas Tech. Someone should be able to help you with it. I had some Smiths who lived in Fannin County but I think your bunch is related to the former governor of Texas Preston Smith!

You can access it by typing Lamar Co, TX in your search engine and then, when you get there, scroll down until you get to the Ron Brothers Lamar County Cemtery site and then you type in the surname of the person you want to investigate. A whole lot of McEntire folks in Red River County when it was still part of Fannin or Lamar County who arent related to me ( That I know of, anyway). Maybe they are yours! My McEntires/McEntyres/McIntires/McIntyres are from NC and SC mainly.

Is there still a community left there? Was there a John WIlliams Ranch there at one time? I have a lot of questions about that place because I just found out that it existed! Thank you for responding to my query! Next question, there were supposed to be McEntires and Crockers buried there. Do they have a cemetery there?

David Ben's father was Joseph T. Stevens and mine was John Hubbard Stevens, both came from Ala. to Texas in 1896. I am interested in info on Joseph T. after he came to Texas, his children and grandchildren and where he lived here in Fannin Co. I have more info on Stevens"s if you are interested. Thanks, Mauridell

Gober is about 10 miles southeast of Bonham, the county seat. It is a small community and has a post office, but not a school. The school closed sometime around 1960 I think. I graduated from it in 1951. Good luck with your research. Earl Elam

Gober has a Post Office which tells me it is a town. My father & his siblings went to school there. There has been a lot of good people that lived there and in out lining areas. I do have one school picture of Gober. Peggy

Hi all: I'm looking for the graves of John R. BALES and his wives Martha and Estelle (or "Hester"). They lived in the Ector area. John died in 1885. I'm hoping there is a book of Fannin Co. cemetery listings out there that someone on the list has access to. Thanks in advance! -- Dennis Kowallek Cincinnati, OH
