Meral, those are both in my line, thank you! I sure wish the death certificates were as easy to find. Phoebia "Bell" Collins Terry died 16 Oct 1900. I was wrong in my last message. Her son Homer Terry was born the day she died. I sure would like to find a death cert. for her! Julie
Hello Julie: I am writing back to you--several days after I got this one indirectly from you. I have meant to write right back, but several things prevented it--I am sorry that I didn't write sooner. You mentioned in one of your last e-mails about where I got my information on the parents of Phoebe Bell Collins Terry--my sister Mary Alice Terry Cousins did most of the research and she is the one who mentioned John Collins and Elizabeth Johnson as being the parents of Phoebe Bell Collins--I thought she had done all the research, and I am sure she thought she was right--I just put it in in my records as such. I do know that Phoebe Bell Collins was married to my grandfather(James Levi Terry)-she was his first wife. His second wife and the mother of his children after Homer, was Victoria Monk. I have a picture of Phoebe Bell, my father(Henry Clay Terry), and his family at that time. His brother, Owen, was in the picture. Also someone named "Collins", and I have the name of "Frank" as his first name, but now I am not sure of that. He was supposed to be Phoebe's brother, and went to Texas with them. Perhaps you can help me on that-I believe Curtie Terry is in the picture. I will see if I can get it put the scanner and make a picture of it and send you, but I am not good on that. Is there any way cheap that I can get a copy of Birth Records Wise County, 1864-1902, published by Julian G. Allen? Is there any way to get this book? Let me know.
