I know...I feel the same way but I can't see how they fit... My Thomas was born in TN and moved to Texas. My grandmother, Jessie was born in Childress, TX in 1901. Her mother was Sarah Webb - and she was born in Arkansas and died in Texas - somewhere between 1903 and 1910. Thomas died in CA in 1927 while living with my Father and his family. My Thomas was born in 1860 - (61?) and his parents were Olinda Smith and Jeffrey West.. The only Thomas that I have noted was back in PA / VA - Joseph West & Jane Owen who married on March 6, 1739 in Chester County, PA. I am not certain about his birthdate...but he reportedly died in TN in Jan 1796 and is buried in the Cherokee Baptist cemetary in Washington County, TN. How is your searching going? I am sort of halted right now...not finding anything new to note. I'll keep looking and let you know if I find anything else. That sure is funny - who was your Thomas West married to?

Fabel; I have been watching with much interest in your recent correspondence. I need to make one small correction to the information on Sarah Webb West. You stated she was born in Arkansas and that she died between 1903 & 1910. She was born in Missouri and died in in late 1907 in Texas. I think in Erath Co. I am still trying to pin down that date.
