Ray - Thanks! Here's what I have: G. W. Stevens - my files show a George W. Stevens, (1856-1924, Bandera), but he is not connected to the branch of my family that was in Wise County. According to my software, he is my Half 2C4R - but everything I have on him is the work of someone else. Loveless/Ranger - My Loveless people were not in Decatur until ca 1920, and were mostly around Runnels, Hill, and Titus counties before that, beginning in 1869. It seems the earliest of my group to be in Decatur were the Williams (William Washington + Minerva Jane Thompson), who arrived sometime in the 1870s. Thanks for your response and let me know if there are any connections! Martha ******************* In a message dated 7/21/07 8:29:23 PM, [email protected] writes: > Dear Martha: Interested in G. W.
