If you will get ahold of me, I will see what we can work out. I think if you send me a copy of the picture, I could have her look at it and see what we come up with. I think I tried to call you once about New Zion Cemetery but was unable to reach you. Respond please to jacksgirl@aol.com Looking forward to hearing from you.

I am sharing this information because I have not seen it posted here. This is my act of genealogical kindness for the day, week, whatever!!! There just is NOT enough time in the day to answer everything that comes across on the lists to which I subscribe. Your query caught my eye because first,Trinity or Houston County lists have not generally been that active and second it mentioned Pennington. I live in Cherokee County about two miles from the Houston County line. My husband is related to about half or more of the people buried in the Pennington Cemetery. Some of his relatives's farms were on the county line part in Houston County and part in Trinity County. His main family names there are DOMINY, FONDREN, BRADLEY, BLACKSHEAR! If you are in Texas and have a library card for a library that particpates in the Texshare database system, you can get an access code from that library and access the entire database free from your home computer. I got mine through Kurth Me. Lib in Lufkin. On that database page is Heritiage Quest (PROUEST)Census, Persi, and genealogy and historical books where you can print out certain pages or the whole book. There are only indexes for 1820, 1860, 1870, 1900, 1910, 1920, and 1930. 1930 seems to be for Texas only. Indexes are only as good as those who transcribed them. Apparently there are some indexes on here that are not on Ancestry and vice versa. I have been having some really exciting researh experiences accessing Georgia and South Carolina census that I did not have in the past. They are apparently all there, just not all the indexes. Anyway this morning I can get the index up for Fosters, for Texas, for 1860, but not the actual census page which can be printed out. Unless you are really good at using the program for the larger print copies. to get the whole page, it is usually to small to read very well. Unually for all those collateral cousins, I have found it is just as easy to copy by pencil/pen and save the printer ink. Anyway I found 160 entries for Fosters, 1860, Texas. One in Trinity County, Robert 27 b. Ala. at Sumpter. In Houston County there are five with three possibilities, Wm 26 b. Ga., John 27 b. Tn. and Wm 31 b. Ala. This last one was at Randolph. Don't recognize off hand where that was located. The other two were at Crockett. Hope this helps some. Remember that the census has many opportunities to have errors and get entered wrong. It does not always match exactly.

They were listed in the Confederate Indigent Family list, so I know they were there when the census was taken. I'm especially looking for a G.W.

I would like to know what children were living with them in 1860, but since I am unable to find them, I'm not having any luck. They were living in Pennington (where many of my Fosters and Parkers are buried at Chita Cemetery) at the time. I have been through the 1860 Trinity county census many times without luck.

You are correct that they are sometimes found in a neighboring county because the boundaries have changed, the census take was lost, they were actually living in the other county at the given time, etc. I have also experienced not being able to find someone because the name on the census had not been correctly indexed or because the person was listed by their middle name instead of the first name. I've just found my father on the 1930 census and they have him listed on the actual census record as W.F. instead of W. R. and the handwriting is very clear, the census take just made an error. And then sometimes they were just missed by the census taker.
