Classification: Query Message Board URL: http://boards.ancestry.com/mbexec/msg/rw/YlB.2ACI/1957 Message Board Post: Looking for anyone who may have info on my great great grandmother Mary 'Owens' Maynard. Mary was born 1857 in Indiana according to 1910 Oklahoma, Choctaw Co., 4 J-Pct Census. She married John M Maynard on 26 Feb 1878 in Paris, Lamar Co., Texas. They lived around the Blossom Prairie area until about 1896 when they moved to Oklahoma. Their children were: Thomas, b: 30 Dec 1878 Bonnie, b: 14 Feb 1880 Cathren, b: 12 Aug 1882 Travis, b: 7 Feb 1884 Matthew, b: 27 Sept 1887; d: 6 Mar 1905 in prison Samuel Right, b: 8 Dec 1889; d: 21 Oct 1955 ( my great grandfather} Annie, b: 4 Dec 1892; d: 18 Mar 1910 Georgia Belle, b: 22 Apr 1896; d: 24 Jul 1934 All their children were born in Texas, with the exception of Georgia Belle, she was born in Oklahoma. I haven't located them on the 1880 Census. I have no other info on her. I do not know who her parents were or who her siblings may have been. Any help would be greatly appreciated

I don't know of this will be of any help, but you might search for any possible connectionbetween Thomas G Owens that married Geretta Giddens. Geretta (or Jeretta) was born ca 1824. Her family came to Red River County in 1833 from Vermilion County, Ill (Danville area). Maybe you Thomas Maynard born in 1878 could have been name after my Thomas G Owens. Her brother was my Great Great Grandfather Wiley W. Giddens. I went to school in Clarksville as a teen in the 1950 with a James Owens, his father was Edgar Owens. James has a sister Bobbie Ann living to day in Annona, Tx. Her last name is Puckett or Peek, I forget, there are a lot of both names in that area. There is a Thomas Owens, a member of Concord Baptist Church (northeast Red River Co) in 1853 in a copy of the church minutes I have. Must be the same Thomas G that married Giddens. Guretta father was Richard F Giddens, that established/built the church on his land and organize it in 1844. Richard Owens is a member of the church also and in a younger class, probably a son to Thomas and named after his Giddens grandfather. but could be a brother. Update, I see Geretta in the same age range as Richard and still with the Giddens name, so Richard I assume s a brother to Thomas. I do not see these names in the later years, so I guess they more own. I do know that Jeretta's have lived and had land dealings in Hopkins before he died Jan 1897.
