Hi list, I forgot to mentioned my step dad's line I am researching: DUNN , BARKER, JONES, RAMSEY,WHITEHURST,RICKS. Thank you! Vicki

From the 1840's to the 1860's, my different related families came to Grayson County, basically in the Ambrose, Bells & Cherry Mounds area. There are about 75 people buried at the Cherry Mounds Cemetery that are of direct, or indirect blood to me. So if you have any connection with the older graves there please contact me. Also if anyone knows where the "2 Goff graves" located at "Bells" per the The Millennium Committee in the Cemeteries of Grayson County Project, dated July 19, 1999, are located, or anyone that may have been connected to this project, I would like to know where this info originated. Around the turn of the century, some of the different families moved on to Woodville, Marshall County Oklahoma. James Goff goffer@chouteautel.com

Searching Grayson Co for connections to: Galey, Galey, Galy, Gayley - Steel, Wright, Baskett, Simpson, Elliott Rogers, Annie....Had brother Jesse Rogers from Illinois Kinman - Pickle, Anderson, Jackson, Flowers Sprouse - Scott, Birdsong, Galey- Rogers and Sprouse-Kinman being main line. Keep searching, Leroy Gailey Born Denison 1933
