Wanda, the only thing i can tell you right know is that my gggrandfahters brother David Crockett nickname DC was in Limestone in 1880 with a wife TEL. Probably the Thorton or Watt area. My gggrandfather Thomas Absolem Crockett was born in thorton in 1899 And my mother was born in Watt in 1923. My mother is deceased now since 1985 and know a little abut her family except for what i have found out doing genealogy for 2 years. When her mother died in 1936 they moved to Waco area. I have found all my mothers family back 5 generations except for the families of 4 siblings for my gggrandfahter James Crockett b 1860 as per census Jasper Co 1880 married a Elizabeth Kelly. nothing else is known of James at this time or his family Sarah Crockett possibly married a Durden or Dryden David Crockett b 1854/56 census sa;ys 1856 but his tombstone reads 1854 buried in Leon co tx David is in Limestone in 1880 but dead in Jan 1900 and have not been able to find aby other census for him or wife after 1880 Limestone. He may have married a Elzina Rutherford but if so then who is TEL Very confusing this Crockett family. Debra in Tx Martha Crockett b 1858 Jasper Co may have died before 1870 she is not on census with other family members but unable to find a marriage or grave for her. ----- Original Message ----- From: <[email protected]> To: <[email protected]> Sent: Tuesday, November 27, 2001 2:52 PM Subject: Re: [TXLIMEST] Crockett Surname > Debra > > The Crockett surname rings a bell.

Hi Debra LaMel, I am interested in your communications not because of your Surnames but because of your locations and time frame. My grandmother was Mattie A. CRAWFORD born _Feb 1883 somewhere in TX according to 1900 Census of Houston Co. She was married to James R. WILLS 29 Jul 1898 in Marquez, Leon, TX. She may have died at the birth of her only living child (My mother) about 14 Apr 1902. That date is open to discussion also place (May have been in LA). Does this ring a bell with anyone out there?
