TX 1888 with brothers and sisters who I have in the 1900 Angelina Co, TX Census, living with an aunt and uncle. The uncle is listed as John M. CALLEASE, which is clearly a corruption of some other name. COLLIE, maybe? John M. was born in AL with parents born in AL. His wife is Sarah, b. TX parents b AL. I believe their birthdates are 1861 and 1866, but I am doing this from memory, so that might be wrong. They show a daughter b. TX Serifa (Seraphina?) How is Fannie Sarah related? Here are the possibilities. 1. Her mother was John M. CALLEASE's sister and married a Williams. If so, I'm hoping to identify John M. CALLEASE and whatever sister he had who married a WILLIAMS. Look familiar? 2. Sarah CALLEASE was a WILLIAMS and therefore Fannie's father's sister. Again, I could possibly identify the right WILLIAMS family. Look familiar? 3. Fannie's mother and Sarah were sisters, maiden name unknown. Which leaves me stuck. Fannie Sarah had brothers and sisters Billy, Allie, Marvin, and sisters Mollie and Lola -- but they are not where she is in 1900. These kids were all born, according to the information I have, in genealogy's "black hole" of 1880 - 1899. The years I have put the oldest brother at only 15 in 1900. It appears they were parcelled out to relatives. Mollie married Floyd MIDDLETON and Lola married a HALLMARK. HELP!!!!!! Anne
