Hi Joel: No not in Texas. I only have done research on that in Alabama. Check out US GENWEB and cyndi's list of internet sites. There is a big list of Civil War info under her listing for US Civil War/war for Southern Independence.The US Archives will help also. One relative (Haney) moved to Texas with 3 Slaves. These records fade after the WAr. In Alabama, I did find one listing, but there too, the records fail me. I do know my ggggrandfather that on the census showed one, what records in the Bibles refer to "our hired hand"....These so-called census records sometimes are more a joke than fact. Picture this, you are standing with me outside of Bill's cabin. Since we are here to help him with his crops, the Census taker asks where we live and our names....We say here with Bill. Bingo--the records show three males living there. When you do any research, check the before and after years. I have found so many errors it is remarkable anyone got counted at all. Anyways, got to go....will talk this all nite..... Jon [email protected] wrote: > Hello, > > Are you researching slave ancestors in Nacogdoches Co.?
