From: Karen Lawless Date: 10/13/04 13:35:45 To: Relppek Subject: Greenwood genealogy Hi Jane! I was contacted by a gentleman here in Kingwood who has been researching an old cemetery in Grimes Co. He's identified a Rev. War patriot, Henry Bailey Greenwood, who is buried there along with another patriot (Landrum). They are having a dedication ceremony for Landrum next weekend. Henry Greenwood has not previously been identified as a Rev. War Patriot (at least not with DAR) and Mr. McKenna has found evidence that he provided patriot service during the Rev. War. So he's looking for descendants of Henry Bailey Greenwood. This family is written up in the 1981 Montgomery Co. history book on page 319. I thought I'd ask around to see if anyone knows any of the descendants of this family. It appears that many of them settled in the Grimes Co. area and I've suggested that Mr. McKenna check over there as well Thanks!! Hope you're doing okay! Karen Lawless

I am a descendent of HB Greenwood: HB Greenwood(b:8/16/1749-56 Loudoun, Bedford Co, Va. d:4/14/1835 Plantersville, Tx/Stoneham Cem)+Nancy Jarvis(b:1753 Loudoun, Va. d:7/1836 Larriosn Prarie, Madison Co, Tx)=>[HBG, Jr. b: @1780, Tenn] Franklin Jarvis Greenwood (b:9/4/1804, Anderson Co, Tenn. d: 7/2-3,1882 Grimes Cnty, Stoneham Cem)+ Mary Jane Montgomery=> William Montgomery Greenwood (b: 6/24/1830 d: 10/31/1888 Grimes Co, Tx, Plantersville Cemetery)+Nancy A Hobbs=>Ed Franklin Greenwood (b: 11/2/1854 d: 2/17/1911 Odd Fellows Cemetery, Anderson, Grimes Co, Tx)+ Ella Louise Williams=>Ruby Frenchy Greenwood (12/28/1889-9/6/1969, Navasota Cemetery, Nav, Grimes Co, Tx)+ George Nicholas Cook=> Evin Lee Cook; George Glenn Cook (8/21/19924-12/21/1994, El Paso, Ft Bliss Mil Cemetery)+Marie Birdwell (2/2/1924-9/6/1999, same cemetery)=>George Edd Cook, Glennda Marie Cook (me). Question: is this HB Greenwood Sr or Jr? Mary Jane Montgomery, who married Franklin Jarvis Greenwood is from the Montgomery family of Montgomery, Co, Tx. (father, Wm M. gf: Jn Montg. ffg Jn Montcomgery, Londonderry, N Ireland (1720-1777) Most early Greenwoods, I believe, are in Stoneham Cemetery, Plantersville, Tx. Some Greenwoods are still in the area. If you don't hear from any of them, please let me know. I will try to track them down. Some, not all,have email. Many, I have yet to connect with. If you connect with any Greenwoods from HB Greenwood Sr, I would love to havt their contact information. I am looking for who has the old family Greenwood Bible, or the Bible/family pages from it. Montgomerys, Greenwoods and Williams intermarried and became a large clan of 3 clans in the Grimes and Montgomery Cos, Tex area.
