If you have not obtained copies of death certificates for Will and Flora I suggest you do so as they may have the parent's names on them.

If anyone has a Montague County cemetery book or surveys I would appreciate a lookup for George W. Haynie and Elizabeth Haynie. They were living in Forestburg in 1900 where George had just applied for a CSA pension due to disability. I can't find him after 1900 so suspect he died soon after that. Any information would be greatly appreciated.

I have just finished reading the Nocona News about the fires in north Texas and specifically Montague County, and I believe there are a lot of heroes that need to be recognized. I hope some local person could tie all the events together and write an article for this Montague County page so it would be preserved in the archives. Frank Martin

I am trying to find any information available on the people listed below who appear on the 1900 census for Montgague county. George Haney was in Hill Co around 1870, then disappears, presumably to Indian Territory, for a long time, then applies for a CSA pension in 1899 in Montgague County. I cannot find a death record, burial place or anything else on him after 1900. Also are there are any marriage records available that would tell who the granddaughter married. Any information would be greatly appreciated. 1900 census information: George W. Haney, age 69, born SC Eliza Haney, age 62, born AL Johnie McCabe, grandaughter, age 10, born Indian Territory
