    1. [WEBB] Webbs in Tennessee and Texas
    2. Mattice, Sara
    3. I am looking for the parents of Isaac Webb, James Albert Webb, and Joseph Lee Webb. They were born in Tennessee and moved to Texas (Collin County area, Farmersville) after they became adults. Isaac was born in 1864, James Albert in 1870, Joseph Lee - I'm not sure. They had a sister who died in her 20s - I do not know her name. Their parents died young as well in Tennessee. Isaac's middle name is thought to be Edmund. He married Sarah E in Tennessee. Her last name is thought to be Hamilton, middle name is thought to be Elizabeth. Their oldest child, Mary Myrtle Webb was born in Tennessee in the late 1800s before they moved to Texas. One other child may have also been born there as well. Their children include (in no particular order) Mary Myrtle Webb, Addie Serena, Riley, Jimmy (James), and George. Isaac died in 1961 and is buried in the Bethlehem Cemetary in Farmersville area along with his wife. James Albert Webb was the first to arrive in Texas. Many times, he used the name Albert or just his initials, J.A. He moved to Powderly, Texas (Lamar County) from Farmersville in about 1905. I think he married his wife Lou Anne Aulds there as there were many Aulds as members of the Primitive Baptist church there. He was ordained as a Primitive Baptist Minister in about 1905 at the Providence Primitive Baptist church in the Arnold Community in Collin County. He was also a school teacher and is thought to have taught in the Blue Ridge and Leonard school districts in Texas. He did move back to Farmersville area and then moved to Dallas later in life. He and Lou Anne (Annie) had the following children: Mary Frances (b 08-02-1906), Louvada, Willie J, Albert Dalton, Thomas Luther and James Alton. James Albert lived to the age of 100 and died in 1970. He preached his last sermon at the age of 100 at a Primitive Baptist Association meeting. James Albert and his wife are both buried in the Bethlem Cemetary in Farmersville Joseph Lee Webb married Willie Ann Price. Joseph many times went by simply Lee Webb. They moved to the Grayson County area. I do not have a list of all their children but do know they had a daughter named Frances, a daughter named Nora, and a son named Granville. After Willie died, Joseph moved to live with one of his daughter's near Ardmore, OK. Joseph's daughter had to put him in a nursing home at one point. Joseph lived to be 93 and was the last of the three brothers to die. He is buried in the Grayson County area. Because of the wide span between each child's birth, I am having trouble finding them on census records together. I don't know who their parents were or where they lived in Tennessee. Nor do I have access to the 1880 census records for Tennessee. Can anyone PLEASE HELP me. Thank you, Sara Mattice
