Cindy I looked & I do have tons of Baldwin info. on the main big Baldwin family that came to Limestone Co. but no Leah also no Archer G Armstrong but his name does tell me a lot. Where most of the Armstrong family lived there was a big bunch of Archers. This is a common surname in that area of Limestone Co. I will keep searching to see if I can find a Armstrong / Archer tie.

Hi Patricia, Yes, Effie lived to marry. She married John L. Thompson in Lampasas in 1903. Her father was Archer G Armstrong and mother was Leah Baldwin.

Looking for FULTON//SADLER//WOODS//PRICHARD. My mother OLLIE (Olive) IRENE FULTON was b 26JUN1897 in Kosse, TX daughter of EULA WOODS FULTON b TX? 1872 and STANFORD BURNEY FULTON b MS 1871 d Falls County or Limestone County in 1919. EULA,. as a widow ,relocated to OH in the 1920's and made frequents trips to Limestone/Falls/Robertson/Milam counties to visit relatives. At a deadend on her Parents/Grandparents. She did visit FRANK WOODS b 1886 in Franklin, TX and his wife OLGA SADLER. Frank was a son of JAMES ADDISON WOODS & FRANCES PARKER Not sure of FRANK WOODS relation to EULA WOODS FULTON Brother? Cousin? Half-Brother? Thank You for any help. Dick H in Carolina

Dick You know it just hit me. Sometime in the later part of the 1800 in Limestone Co. TX we found another Sadler not connected to our John Sadler family that we could find. I think this mans name was some thing like Augustus Sadler. Do not hold me to this name I will have to try to remember what records I saw him on it has just been too long. But the name Olga does not fit our family at all. I will remember this & try to find you this information. You might want to check the 1880 or 1900 Limestone Co. TX census. Pat Oates in TX.

Does anyone know if Limestone county has birth records from 1885? I am looking for a birth record for Effie Bell Armstrong b. Sep 15, 1885. Thanks Cindy

since texas did not require birth records to be kept until 1903 I really doubt that any rural county like Limestone has them. > -----Original Message----- > From: Cindy Walder [SMTP:[email protected]] > Sent: Thursday, April 05, 2001 2:55 PM > To: [email protected] > Subject: [TXLIMEST] Birth records > > Does anyone know if Limestone county has birth records from 1885?

Hello, I don't think my Champions are connected to Jones,unless James had a sister who married. At this time I only have James(JKP) Champion married to Martha/Mollie Sparks and dtr. Cora Mae Champion at Big Hill and Thorton. My mother remembers her as "Big Mama",Cora died in 1942 in Thorton. Thanks your attention. Rebecca

Jonelle Some of the Limestone Co. Barnett family was my GGrandparents neighbors in Oletha Limestone Co. TX. Also the Bassett family is some how kin to my Aunts Husband from the Thornton area. I have not done anything with the Bassetts yet but do have a little on the Barnett family but they are not as old as the ones you sent in. I am working the 1900 & 1850 Limestone Co. census now but will keep & eye open for any of these names as I work. Some of that Calvin Jones family is still around. I spent the day today in Ft Parker Cem & had so much fun. Pat Oates in TX.

Hello Pat, Disregard any Gentry Bates for now. I can't find anything specific at this time. Way too many common names. Best Regards, Mika _________________________________________________________________ Get your FREE download of MSN Explorer at http://explorer.msn.com

Hi Pat, Sorry about that. Guess I wasn't thinking. Let me do some looking around for my notes and I will get back to you. Best Regards, Mika _________________________________________________________________ Get your FREE download of MSN Explorer at http://explorer.msn.com

Parker, Frost, Slaughter John B. Parker b. 1822 in Tn. moved to Illinois and then to Tx in 1837 settled at Ft. Houston Tx, and later Anderson Co. Tx.. Ft Houston, is where the Parkers and other families, went to, after the Indian Raid at Ft. Parker, in 1836. I believe my Parkers are kin to the Elder John Parker, but have not made the connection yet. John B. Parker married Sarah Jane Frost in 1847 in Anderson Co. Tx.. Sarah Jane is the daughter of Samuel Frost, who was killed at Ft. Parker, along with Elder John Parker, his sons and several other people. Her brother Robert B. Frost was also killed that day. John and Sarah moved to Limestone Co. before 1855. Living in the household of John and Sarah Parker, was Ransom Parker b. 1848 in Anderson, Co. Tx. Emma Parker, b. 1855, Limestone Co. William Parker b. 1866 Tx. and 3 brothers, last name Slaughter. William b. 1844 in Houston Co. Tx. John b. 1846, Anderson Co., and Joseph b. 1848, Anderson Co. The Slaughter childrens father was, George Slaughter, mother unknown, George died and left the children in the care of John and Sarah Parker, and I believe the children lived with John and Sarah until adulthood. I found a John Slaughter living in Personville, Limestone Co. Tx. but do not know if he is the same one that I am looking for. John and Sarah also lived in Eutaw, Springfield, and outside of Waco. John and Sarah died in Jan. 1879, within 5days of each other. Do not know where they are buried. I have check all the online cemeteries in Limestone Co., but have found nothing. If anyone has information on any of the following people, I who like to hear from you. John B. Parker,b.Dec 22. 1822, Rutherford Co. Tn. d. Jan 07,1879 Tx. Children: Ransom, Emma, and William Parker. There were other children,but they died. and these are the only names I have. Father: William Parker Mother: Betty Rucker Siblings: Peyton, George, and Ransom. Sarah Jane Frost, b. June 11, 1830, Illinois d. Jan. 11/12, 1879 Tx. Father: Samuel Frost Mother: Elizabeth (last name unknown) Siblings: Malinda Frost b. 1847 Va. d. Tarrant Co. Tx.(1st Sp. George Dwight 2nd Sp.

Susan Predonia Champion b 1858 in Falls Co., TX married Calvin Jones b 1833 Kershaw Co., SC in Limestone Co. on October 23, 1882. She died Feb. 26, 1938 in Thornton Limestone, County. Calvin Jones was the son of Samuel Jones II and Sarah N. Truesdale. This Jones family moved to Russell County AL about 1835- this was later Lee County. My ancestor Louisa Jones Barnett (1841) was a sister of Calvins. Louisa was born in Russell Co., AL married Richard Henry Barnett about 1855. Richard H.'s first wife, Rebecca Jones had died in 1854. Rebecca was a sister of Louisa and Calvins. Louisa, Richard H. Barnett and family moved to Limestone County after the Civil War. Both are buried at Tidwell Cemetery near Thornton in Limestone County. There was another sister, Vandonsan Jones b. 1844 Russell Co., AL married William T. Bassett in 1866 in Lee Co. I believe she and her family moved to Limestone County also. Any Barnett or Bassett researchers? The Samuel Jones family was a very large family - 14 or 15 children by 1st wife Sarah Truesdale. He married again and that wife had 6 or so children. I don't know about all of this group. There have been several books written about the Jones family from Kershaw SC but it does not follow everyone. Jonelle

Hello Rebecca and Patricia, I am the Jones in southern California who has been working with Patricia about my Jones line in Limestone County. The Calvin Jones mentioned as marrying Susan Champion is not related to my Jones family. My g-grandfather, Hardy Jones, arrived in Mount Calm, which at the time was in north Limestone County ( they moved Mount Calm to Hill County I forgot when, but when the railroad came. The cemetery is still in Limestone County) . Hardy arrived there in the early 1850s probably from Shelby County Texas. He was about 30 years old at that time and already married to Martha Caroline Blackburn. They married in Daviess County, Indiana in 1846. He was the only one of his Jones family to come to Limestone County. Hardy and Martha had nine children before she died and was buried in Mount Calm in 1880. The boys were William Lewis, James Alfred, John D. and David Wilson, born between 1853 and 1873.

Supposedly, Henry lived in Freestone but later moved to Bastrop to live with his aunt Annie Black/Bishop. He probably didn't have any descendants, I believe he was single.

I'm not sure who he belongs to. All I know is that Henry Pfifer died 12 24 1883 and he was hanged. I know he also lived with an aunt Annie Black who later married a Bishop.
