Patricia, thank you for the offer. On the 1870 McLennan County Texas census, "East of the Brazos River", page 97, house #605 Malone Thomas 38 b.TN William 18 b. LA Kathryn 17 b. LA Elizaee 16 b. LA Frances 12 b. LA Mary 8 b. LA Carter George 18 b. LA Tabitha 16 b. LA William 13 b. LA Wilson William 15 b. LA McDonald Alpha 65 b. TN Who is the William Wilson, age 15 in 1870, b. about 1855 in Louisiana living with the Malone family? I know that Thomas Malone moved his kids to this area after the civil war. His first wife Simantha Leonard had died, and they moved from Monroe, Ouachita Parish, LA. Possibly the Carter kids and William Wilson moved with him since they were all born in LA. Thomas Malone had other Malone relatives already living in Limestone county. This George Carter is my greatgrandpa and they later lived around Elk and Hallsburg which is on the McLennan/Limestone county line. George Carter is my brickwall. Finding who William Wilson is may give me further clues? I also know that Alpha Bumpass McDonald is the mother of Thomas Malone.

Sandra These Wilsons were in Limestone Co. before the 1860 census & had no children born in LA all born in IL or TX. I can tell you I have run into the Bumpass name in the south east corner of Limestone Co. south of Oletha. Don't have a lot of info on this line. Will keep my eye open for your Wilson because there was a Wilson family that was in the Big Hill area & also another one on the west side of Limestone Co. Pat Oates in TX.
