Posted on: Robertson County Texas Queries Reply Here: http://cgi.rootsweb.com/~genbbs/genbbs.cgi/USA/Tx/Robertson/357 Surname: Ellison ------------------------- I am looking for the obituary of my ancestor(s) former Robertson County Judge Isaac Bodine Ellison, who died July 18, 1912 and his wife Elizabeth, who died Jan. 8, 1911. Both lived in Franklin, Robertson County, Texas and are buried in the Franklin Cemetery. Any help is appreciated.

Have you checked out this list of names for the Sterling Cemetery? http://www.rootsweb.com/~txrober2/STERLINGCEMETERY.htm shirley

Dorothy: Would you please let me know if you get any response to your inquiry about Sterling Cemetery? I'm also interested in who's buried there. I'm researching Robert CALVERT and his wife Mary (KEESEE) Calvert and, although their stones are the only ones remaining, I know there were other family members buried there. I'm also interested in contacting descendants of the CALVERT family and would appreciate hearing about it if you make contact with anyone. Thanks, Carolyn At 07:01 PM 01/02/2001 -0800, you wrote: >______________________________X-Message: #1 >Date: Tue, 2 Jan 2001 05:43:31 -0800 >From: Dorothy Reid <tdreid@compuwise.net> >To: TXROBERTS-L@rootsweb.com >Subject: [TX ROBERTSON] James T.

Posted on: Robertson County Texas Queries Reply Here: http://cgi.rootsweb.com/~genbbs/genbbs.cgi/USA/Tx/Robertson/356 Surname: House ------------------------- I would like to contact some of H.P. House family to see if we can either make a connection or eliminate it. I am researching a George M. House who was born about 1850 in Mississippi. His daughter, Hattie House was supposed to have been living with grandparents until they died(but may have been someone else) before she married. This was supposed to have been in Falls County. I hope someone in H.P.'s family might know if this is my George's brother and if they know of any family history about Hattie. Thanks, so much!

ROBERTS and I think his wife that died and is buried in the Sterling Cemetery was named Nancy Jane O'Neal. Does anyone have a listing of all the people buried in the cemetery. She died after 1874. I was told after a trip there a family member of the Calverts had a bible with some of the listings, does anyone know about it? The family lived in Robertson County for several years.

I do not have a cemetery map, but I can tell you that it is a very nice one that has many markers. I have several relatives buried there, including by ggfather and ggmother. It is on the south end of town. Incidentally, there is another large cemetery at the split in the road where Owensville was located. The Owensville cemetery is about 4 miles north of Franklin. Within that cemetery is a smaller fenced in cemetery where my father's parents and a few other Grant's are buried. Not far from there is a spot along the road where the old homestead once stood that was called Grants Prairie (no signage, but folks know where it is). Allen Grant I don't know it until I know it. But when I know it I know it. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Conway A.

I would like information about the person that Robertson County is named after. I am trying to track my Robertson line out of the Ellis County area and believe they may connect--but have no proof. My oldest Robertson is a John who fought in the Civil War (I have no other dates) who had sons Malcolm, Jasper, and George Robert (my ancester) and a daughter named Docie. Somehow they connect with Eckebergers. Any way, any help is appreciated. Vicki R Alvin, Texas
