I saw this done on a couple of my other TX lists and thought it was a great idea. Sometimes we have trouble finding what county our Texas ancestors came from in a particular state. For instance, I know that William A. Blount came from Alabama but I am having a terrible time finding him on an 1850 census for AL when he should be there. Quite often groups of settlers came from the same area of a state and settled in the same county. I am going to list my husband's Grimes County ancestors and include where they migrated from. Maybe if we get enough of the same from you on this list, I can combine them on a new page for the website and we can determine some patterns. NAME YEAR MIGRATED FROM William A. BLOUNT abt. 1853 Alabama - possibly Sumter Co? John THORNTON 1850's Coffee County, Alabama John M. COLSON abt. 1869 Washington and Mobile Cos., AL by way of Greene Co, MS James W. HARGROVE 1860's Hopkins Co, TX - father from Lawrence Co, AL and then Monroe Co, MS James W. WARD 1870's Pike County, Alabama William T. WORSHAM abt. 1877 East Feliciana Parish, LA Eleanor Colson
