Surnames: Cox-Darden-Stewart-Chappel Classification: Query Message Board URL: http://boards.ancestry.com/mbexec/msg/rw/4kB.2ACI/1849 Message Board Post: I have questions--I need answers --please share. My Cox family was in Henderson Co , Tx by 1857. GGrandfather, Stephen Franklin &Mary Elizabeth Chappel. They got land &settled, had 3 children, Thomas Chappel, Ella& son B.1868-name not clear on census--Edmond, Edward,Edwin or maybe Robert. This was all on 1870 census. 1880 census does not show the last son. Q. did he died? where is he burried? Where can I find news papers of those yrs? Census 1870 gives Troup as P.O and says they were on Canton Beat. Land records show them buying and selling in Smith County. Is there records for old Methodist churches? GGfather was involved in Methodist Church work. Was there a minster of the gospel named Dr. Fountain. Marriage records show he preformed marriages for Son, Thomas Chappel &Nancy Lettica Stewart near Tyler. He also married Ella & A.A. Darden. Both of these marriages took place in 1877. Thomas &Nancy moved to Taylor Co. about 1881 to homestead some land along with ggranfather. Ella &Alford A. Darden lived in Henderson Co. They had 5 children , also lived in other counties. Ella died before A.A. Did she die in Henderson Co? Is there a town or comunnity named Leaguesville? Is there a cemetery called Leaguesville? Is there a record of who is buried there? Is there a funeral Home that would have records back to 1880? is there anyone that help me find answers? I will pay for copies and postage and time if necessary.
