Rudolph OTTS & Eula BOW & Family. Looking for information & documentation

stonejay — 10 Jun 2008 3:20:14 GMT

I am doing research for a friend of the family whom would like to learn his ancestry. I have traced his grand parents Rudolph OTTS (24Jul1898-Apr1985) and Eula BOW (1908-???) to this area of Texas.

Rudolph was born in Alabama. I believe he was the son of John Franklin OTTS and Palestine PRATT.
Eula was born in Texas. I have no other information on her or here family.
Would like to document their marriage, childern, home in this area, parentage, etc.

It appears from the research I've been able to do that John Franklin OTTS was born out of wedlock, but I have not been able to confirm that assumption.

Any help or direction would be greatly appreciated.

Ralph Alsobrook relations

ralsobrook3000 — 23 Jun 2001 11:36:58 GMT

Great grandfather Ralph C. Alsobrook brought his family to Franklin County sometime after 1900 (when he was in Pike County Arkansas). Once here there were marriages with the following families, Brown, Buckhanon-Buchanan, and Harris.

But what really intrigues me is finding out there may have been Alsobrooks here as early as 1885 when a Mattie Alsobrook married a Lee Wakefield.

If anyone has any information about this family, especially about this Mattie Alsobrook who married Lee Wakefield, please share!

bryarly family

DelwinMoore — 21 Jan 2008 7:23:45 GMT

I believe I liked the old format better. I may not know what I'm doin'.

My interest is in the Bryarly family. I notice on Family Search (LDS) that Lucy Bryarly was christened in the New Liberty Church of Christ in May 1858. Does anyone know where in Titus County this church is/was? Lucy's mother is believed to have been raised a Methodist, her father I'm not sure what. It seems strange to me that she would have been "christened at 12 years of age, but again, perhaps that was the "age of maturity" for this denomination. Lucy was buried in the city Cemetery in Mt Vernon in Franklin County, where her mother and father were supposed to have been buried. I have been unable to located the graves, but I did find the grave of her sister, Elizabeth Caroline Bryarly, who married Francis Wright Bolin. Mr Bolin later became gr-grandmother's (Lucy Bryarly) husband after her husband Oliver Mathews died.

Can anyone help with this?

Note: Cross-posted on the Titus Co Message Board. I would like to know if anyone has knowlege of the burial site of Thomas Fitzhugh Bryarly and wife Minerva. Supposed to have died about 1878 and to have been buried in the City Cemetery in Mt Vernon.

Fleetwood Holder/Ollie Murray Reed

kuschatz — 18 Nov 2006 5:58:01 GMT

I am looking for information about Fleetwood "Doc" Holder, born in Mount Vernon on Oct. 3, 1886. His mother was Dora D. Holder, born in Georgia. She later married a Frost, but her maiden name is unknown. All we know about Fleetwood's father is that he was born in Alabama. By 1910, Fleetwood appears in a census in Colorado, so he moved away young, but he later settled in Ridgeway, Hunt County, Texas. He is my husband's grandfather. Fleetwood married Ollie Reed, b. 1896 d. 1931. We have no other information about her and no idea if she is from Mount Vernon. Does anyone have information about Fleetwood or Ollie's parents and siblings?

Grave location of James Coleman Raines

Beverly — 27 Apr 2006 4:30:55 GMT

I'm trying to find the location of Mr. Raines' grave. His daughter, Rena Mae, is buried in Gray Rock cemetery, d. 1918. Mr. Raines died 7 Dec 1922. His family moved several times before his death, so I'm not sure where they were living when he died. I have a photo of his grave, but no idea where he was buried. The photo (probably taken in the '60s) shows a white clapboard church in the background, no trees in sight.

Any help would be much appreciated.

Thanks!

Marriage Lookup Please

Michele — 5 Aug 2005 4:58:21 GMT

I am trying to locate the place where my great-grandparents were married. I had alway's thought it was Hopkins Co.
But.... I have had no luck. So I am trying the Counties from Rockwall and going East.
Their names were William H. Collins And Clyde (Maiden name is unknown). From what I have found on the US census they were married around 1895. William H. was born about 1876 in Kentucky and Clyde was born about 1879 in Arkansas. In the 1900 census William was living at home with his parents, but listed as married for 5 years. I have not found Clyde in the 1900 census. William H's parents were Asberry Collins and Mary Jane Collins.

Any information please email me here or at cama1209@msn.com
