They were married from 1859-1867 to people who also lived around the Whitesboro. But they do not show up on the 1860 census. None of them. However, one does show up on the 1870 census in Whitesboro and I know the rest of them moved on by that time. Jack >> Hi Jack, My family was also in the Whitesboro area of Grayson County in 1860 but I've yet to find them on a census. I know they moved there between 1850 and 1854. They are in MO for the 1850 census and there is a recorded agreement in MO in Oct. of 1854 which states that their residence and is in Grayson County, TX. They were visiting family back in MO when the wife's grandmother tried to get them to agree to move back and stay in MO as long as wife's mother was still alive. They apparently agreed but never did move and a recorded agreement to nullify the earlier agreement was filed a year later, again in MO. The family appears in the 1870 and 1880 Grayson County census data. I've looked through the census (1860 Grayson Co.) page by page and will probably do it again as I just can't believe that they aren't listed there somewhere :) Vicki Woodland Hills, CA Researching Alexander D.
