Hello, Thank you very much. Margaret E. Cox was my father's sister and Eve C. Freeman was her daughter. Margaret's husband was named Samuel E. but my father and uncle did not like him and always referred to him as old Bob Cox. I wonder if that Bob Cox could be him. Again I thank you. Libby Clay

Jul 12, 1889 - Feb 1, 1974 Cox, Margaret E. 1872 - 1912 All on row 37 in the cemetery. In same cemetery I found these other COX names row 20 - Cox, Lavenia 9 Apr 1916 - 20 Dec 1927 row 21 - Cox, W H 16 Nov 1843 - 7 Oct 1889 " ", Mrs Erie -sandstone marker (I.D. by W.D. Upchurch) " - ", Bob - cement headstone ( I. D. by W.D. Upchurch) I hope this helps. Ruth Bowen

********Please address any replies to Dane at [email protected] Eleanor Colson << For some 20 years I have been searching for info on my Great Grandfather Allen S. Bowen who according to strong family tradition was lynched about 1871 for allegedly stealing horses. He married Polly Ann Wells in Grimes Co. in 1868 according to LDS. He enlisted in Confederate Army at Anderson in 1862 according to Confederate Records of the Nat'l Archives. He appeared inthe 1860 US Census for Madisonville, Madison Co. at age 16 with parents Daniel A and Harriet Bowen, all three born in SC. About six years ago I visited the Grimes Co Courthouse with no luck. Also the public library in Navesota but had the bad luck of the only old newspaper being out for microfilming. Any info on this person would be tremendously appreciated. Dane Bowen in Alexandria, Va. >>

Posted on: Grimes Co. Tx Queries Board URL: http://cgi.rootsweb.com/~genbbs/genbbs.cgi/USA/Tx/Grimes?read=74 Surname: Hurlbut, Hurlbert ------------------------- A follow-up to my previous query: A listing of early Grimes County marriage records contains a marriage between Sam'l Hurlbut and Eliza Griffiths dated April 24, 1856. The summary I found contains no further info (ages, origins, parents, etc.). Do the full marriage licenses/applications still exist, and can they be searched?

Posted on: Grimes Co. Tx Queries Board URL: http://cgi.rootsweb.com/~genbbs/genbbs.cgi/USA/Tx/Grimes?read=73 Surname: Hurlbut, Hulbot, Hurlburt ------------------------- Seeking GRIMES COUNTY birth record for Samuel Hurlbut, b. March 1859, or marriage record for his parents. 1860 census for Grimes County shows a Samuel Hulbot, age 1, living with mother Rose E. Hulbot, age 24, and sister Mary, age 7. No father is named; Rose and children are living with one George W. Grimes (or something similar; census taker's cursive is hard to read). There are many variant spellings of "Hurlbut.". Any help would be appreciated.

Looking for information on birth/death date of Samuel Cox, Margaret Cox, Eva Cox Freeman, Leonard Freeman, Sidney Cox and Sidney Freeman. Thanks

Posted on: Grimes Co. Tx Queries Board URL: http://cgi.rootsweb.com/~genbbs/genbbs.cgi/USA/Tx/Grimes?read=72 Surname: ALLEN, GREER, STEPHERSON, STEPHENSON, SYEVERSON, STEVENSON ------------------------- Searching for information on John M.Stepherson,married Sally Greer, Robert Ann"Bobbie"Stepherson, married Harvey Allen Jr., Louisiana"Lou" Stepherson married Peter George Washington Greer. The surname has been spelled 3 other ways, but we use the STEPHERSON spelling today. All 3 believed to be living in Grimes Co., in the early 1870's, but all married in Walker Co.,Tx., in the mid 1870's. Need information on their parents and proof that John, Robert Ann "Bobbie" and Louisiana "Lou", are brother and sisters. I can not find anything on John before he married Sally Greer in 1875 in Walker Co., Texas. It is reported that their father died around 1870 or earlier, and their mother remarried a Mr. Young. All 3 siblings were born in the 1850's. I have not been able to find the 3 siblings together on a census for 1860 or 1870. If anyone has any information on this family, please contact me at [email protected]
