The page on Nobility can be found at http://www.rootsweb.ancestry.com/~txfannin/f15.html . The two story building in the photo on that page of downtown Nobility has an IOOF symbol on the front of the building, so it is most likely the same building you mention in your posting.

    1. [TXFANNIN] Margaret Starnes/Echols/Blakely
    2. Kay Kazmir
    3. Back in the 1970's Fay Lovelace of Bonham, Texas was gathering Starnes information and typed a small Starnes Genealogy. Margaret Starnes who was b. 01 Sep 1834 in MS (probably Choctaw County), daughter of Jacob Starnes and Jane Russell, married Mose Echols in MS (probably Choctaw or Webster County). Mose was dead by 1870 and according to Fay Lovelace he had been murdered. We are unsure where this murder occurred or if in fact it really did occur. We are also unsure when Margaret moved to Fannin County. At least one of her brothers was there as early as February, 1870, when he married in Fannin County, but another didn't arrive until 1880. We do know that on 13 Dec 1874 Margaret married Reuben Blakely in Fannin County, TX. She died in 1898 and is buried in Brown Cemetery in Fannin Co., TX. We would be interested in anything that anyone could tell us about this family. Margaret and Mose had three children, John Echols (who according to Fay had a large family), Mary "Mollie Echols who married John Whitley and had one son Dick, and Nan Echols who married Bill Trout and lived in the Oakland Community north of Bonham for many years. To the best of our knowledge, she and Reuben Blakely did not have any children. We would love to hear from anyone related to any of these families.

Each of these extensive gazeteer and immigrant guides contain the description of places and place names, many of which are no longer found on contemporary maps, including: cities, towns, villages, settlements, schools, post offices, transportation routes and schedules, and much more. Historical Guides and Gazetteer CD's may also include maps of the period providing cartographic reference to 19th century places identified and discussed in the literature. Also included are hundreds of advertisements by contributing businesses providing historical insight into the goods, services and the merchants that made them available during the 19th century. Anyone interested in the history of these regions will find this material useful. ------------------------------------------------------------ HISTORIC ATLAS SERIES (includes 19th century atlases of IA, IL, IN, KY, KS, MI, MN, NE, OH, PA, VA and WI) http://www.historic-atlas-series.com/has.html The Historic Atlas Series CD's are digital reproductions of 19th century maps and historical atlas data in Adobe Portable Document Format (PDF). The Adobe Reader software is required to view, manipulate and print PDF data is included on each CD. States with maps and atlases currently available are shown in the graphic to the right. 19th century geographic and statistical data are useful to historians, genealogists and researchers with an interest in the landscape and cultural setting of this period. Early county maps may contain many places that no longer exist or that have been obscured over time. Atlases with statistical data provide vivid detail of 19th century pioneer lifestyles. Details on early maps are often difficult to read and these are no exception; however, by virtue of the Adobe PDF formatting, these documents may be inspected and printed at high levels of magnification without additional digital distortion; something that simply cannot be accomplished with paper reproductions and photocopies. There is a vast amount of information that can be gleaned from these sources and the diligent researcher will find these cartographic resources useful in their studies. ------------------------------------------------------------ Good luck with your research!

    3. Hey List.... This "gentleman" is systematically spamming every Rootsweb Board. I've reported him for abuse since his posting mentioned neither Fannin County, nor the state of Texas. This posting has already been removed from the the Board. He probably has a decent product. Too bad his marketing plan is underhanded.
