If you wish to make the "new" posting in Bradley County, AR I'm okay with that! I can easily navigate there.

I had researched some info prior to your first response today. They wed 21 Sep 1946 in Bradley County. There are birth records in Orange County for William Gerald and Mark Allen. Your mom was the informant on Sammie Faye's (3 May 1951 - 14 Apr 1970) death certificate.

To minimize confusion, the families are not related, please start a separate thread in Orange County?

Re: Lott/Ivey family history

Genealogy is my hobby and I'm not related. I assisted on the initial search for the other Ivey-family who appear to be unrelated?

Lucastaylormira — 2013-05-18 15:41:00Z

Sam Ivey, sr. Was@ 65 years old when my father was born & had been married before my grandmother, Zilly. Could have had three other daughters & 2 other sons.. He was a real character from what I recall.

Re: Lott/Ivey family history

Lucastaylormira — 2013-05-18 15:26:39Z

I only knew Braton.. A wandering man.. Are u part of this family or a researcher on this site?

Re: Lott/Ivey family history

HL2604 — 2013-05-18 15:16:14Z

Seems he had another half brother, Howard, born ca. 1893? There may have been three half sisters, too?

Re: Lott/Ivey family history

HL2604 — 2013-05-18 15:13:28Z

Alrighty then! Do you have a public family tree? If so, share url please? That will prevent me from researching info you already have.

Re: Lott/Ivey family history

Lucastaylormira — 2013-05-18 14:54:58Z

My father Sam Ivey, jr also has a half brother name of Braton.

Re: Lott/Ivey family history

Lucastaylormira — 2013-05-18 14:17:29Z

Yes. That was my mothers name. My father had three sisters, Marie, Coty, Ovenie. My parent were from hermitage, Arkansas - relocated to orange, tx.

Re: Lott/Ivey family history

HL2604 — 2013-05-18 08:32:29Z

You'll need to share more detailed info. Was your mother Betty Adel Merritt? What county in Arkansas did your parents call home? Names and dates of your father's siblings, please? Where did your parents relocate in Texas?

Re: Lott/Ivey family history

Lucastaylormira — 2013-05-18 03:24:04Z

I was looking on google to see what I could find re my father. His name was Sam Ivey, Jr. & his father was Sam Ivey sr. They were from Arkansas . I know nothing about their history. This site is unfamiliar to me - I only found this question & no previous or subsequent comments. I was hoping to see a thread ' to know if it could relate to my iveys!

What was happening in Hunt Co between 1880-1882

blue_texas — 2013-05-14 15:54:21Z

I'm searching for info about my g-g-g-grandfather whom I believe died in Hunt Co between 1880-1882.

John M Grammer - last record in the 1880 Census, in Hunt Co. married to Susan Predonia Champion, with daughters Ella & Lille. (both later married BELL & CAMP)

Susan was pregnant with William Henry at the time the census was taken. WH was born in Dec of 1880. Susan remarried JONES in 1882.

So what happened to John M Grammer?

John was from Arkansas and could not write. My grandmother knew Susan and Susan would never talk about John...

So what was happening in Hunt Co. (Precint 4) during that time? Where could I find anything related?

Hi Margaret,
My step father was Loyd's first cousin.
He has two pictures of him. One is of him in his uniform and one has him with his wife, whose name he couldn't remember and another couple he didn't know. I helped my mother put them on his Find a Grave memorial.

Looking for info on Gordon Hart from Greenville, Hunt County before 1870

TSDDUGAN42 — 2013-04-02 03:12:50Z

Hello group – I’m looking for some help to overcome a crazy roadblock - I am trying to find Gordon Hart that lived in Hunt County between 1860 and 1870.

The last bit of evidence I have for my search is the 1870 Census of Greenville in Precinct 3, Page 24. Head of household is Mary Hart b. 1844, with 4 Hart children: John Hart b. 1863, Wilson Hart b. 1865, Josiah Hart b. 1867, Samuel Hart b. 1869. All are born in Texas. The father is not listed on the census (and whom I believe is Gordon), and the next closest Harts listed on that Census are on page 17, Wilson and Elizabeth Hart, b.1830 & 1833.

I have tried contacting the courthouse about a birth certificate for Samuel but was informed that they have very few from that period. I assume they all vanished when the courthouse burned up…

If anyone is knowledgeable about the Harts of Hunt County during this period and might have any information they could share about my Hart family, I would be so much appreciative.

p.s. I have a very strong reason to believe this Hart family is connected to the Harts that came by early settlement from Virginia based on some photos I found.

Thank you VERY much,

-Travis

I'm looking for information on James Kilgore that was one of the original land owners in Hunt Co., TX. I'm trying to see if he's the same James Kilgore that was in Rapides Parish, LA in 1810 & 1820 before vanishing. The one that was in Rapides Parish I believe to be my 4x gr grandfather, father of my 3x gr grandmother Martha Kilgore, she had a sister Sophia Matilda Kilgore that married Dennis Mackie, a surveyor in LA. Both Martha and Sophia were born near Alexandria, Rapides Parish, LA abt 1800-1805.

Re: Lilburn Stone

HL2604 — 2013-02-19 22:27:43Z

I'd better publish this now in hopes someone recognizes names and inform the listed personnel? William Leon Dyer was Susie Virginia's son. He and Martha Leona Haggard had Barry Leon Dyer (9 Jul 1941). Barry and Penny Joann Harrison had Bryan Harrison (13 Nov 1963) and Jason Christopher (28 Oct 1966). There may have been a second marriage to Mary Margaret Hewitt that produced William Leon (16 Apr 1984)?

Re: Lilburn Stone

HL2604 — 2013-02-19 19:21:50Z

You are very welcome and it was my pleasure to assist your research! I've been doing this for a long time, approximately 15 years, and have learned to navigate available resources quickly. Should you desire to pursue living descendants, I can help with that? Actually, that's my preference! Life is for the living and I don't dwell on where "so-n-so" is buried!

Re: Lilburn Stone

KathyAnne31 — 2013-02-19 06:43:58Z

HL2604 you have been on a roll and you have done all of this so fast! I didn't ask you how long you have been doing this I just can't believe you found all of this so fast. I am not sure if I have talked to you since I asked my mother some more questions. She does not know much about Lilburn. She told me she remembered her mother and her sister would always get together when their "Aunt Susie" came to visit. I asked her if she knew anything about "Aunt Susie" and she said no only that she came from Ft. Worth to visit her mother and her mother's sister. She didn't know anything else but I think she must have been Susan Virginia Stone Dyer. I now thanks to you have some other names to slowly run by her. Thank you so much I hope your hands and fingers are not to sore you have really done so much for me. I have been stuck in this place for what seems to be a long time. I hope to start using family search and try to find my way around. I know a lady about 50 miles from here that I think can help me if I draw a blank. Again thank you for your wonderful help.

Re: Lilburn Stone

Atris B. from 1900 Dallas was Janey Beatrice Kirkland (25 Mar 1893 - 22 May 1958). Her parents were unknown to the certificate's informant, Tom W. Kirkland. If census birthdate is accurate then her father was George Simmons? If the death certificate info is accurate then Lilburn Stone was her sire?

Re: Lilburn Stone

HL2604 — 2013-02-17 12:13:26Z

Inez from 1900 Dallas was Georgia Inez Reimers (15 Jan 1890 - 13 Dec 1948). Her parents were George Simmons and Martha Elizabeth Pate. She was Lilburn's step daughter although this is not recorded on the census image.

Re: Lilburn Stone

HL2604 — 2013-02-17 10:44:15Z

View 1900 Dallas-Eagle Fort-District 0143-Image 9. The head-of-household was Louis L. Stone(52) of Tennessee. That's Lilburn remarried to Bettie(42). Her death certificate filed as Martha Elizabeth Stone (29 Jun 1856 - 29 May 1930). Her maiden name was "Pate" and her first husband was George Simmons. Per familysearch, L. L. Stone wed Mrs. Bettie Simmons, 15 Jun 1892 in Hunt County. Also in the 1900 household were: Adison (needs research), Inez (aka Georgia Inez Reimers), Atris B. (aka Janey Beatrice Kirkland), Ruby (aka Ruby Elmo Wardlaw), Rosey L. (aka Rosalie Llewellyn), and Willie (aka James William Stone). Don't quite understand why Willie identified as stepson? Guess they were delineating children born to Frances McDonald? Lilburn evidently died prior to 1910 census? Martha E. Stone found Dallas-Precinct 7-0102-Image 38 with "Beatrus"(17), Ruby E.(14), and Rosa Lee(12). Unable to locate Martha in 1920. View 1920 Dallas-Precinct 7-District 107-Image 29. Rosalie(22) was married to Percy M. Llewellyn(31) and they had Jack W.(1 10/12). Rosalie's sister "Beattres" Kirkland(26) and nephew Thomas(3) shared the home. In 1930 Dallas-Dallas-District 78-Image 34, find Beatrice Kirkland(35), her son Tom W.(13) and mom M. Betty Stone(71).

Re: Lilburn Stone

KathyAnne31 — 2013-02-17 00:04:13Z

I plan to try family search it seems there are different records there. I have used genealogyweb and have found information I can't find elsewhere. When I get my site up I have included pictures if I can find them and any stories I locate. My mother has been a great source to verify information.

Re: Lilburn Stone

HL2604 — 2013-02-16 11:27:27Z

I'm not related simply enjoy genealogy and helping others. Recall, Susan's death certificate indicates she was born in Dade County, MO? You might consider posting there for info? Findagrave memorial: Iva M. McBride (2 Jan 1876 - 30 Jun 1916) in Hunt County. Genealogy is ever evolving! There are errors on vital records, deaths with no official records, and much misinformation. Correction/updating is normal as you learn new "stuff". Navigating familysearch is easy. Please logon and setup a "free" user account to access Texas Death Certificates. All of Sarah's siblings are accounted for except Eliza.

Re: Lilburn Stone

Hi, My information isn't posted because Even though I have researched a while I would write down information to go back an recheck and before I could do that people would write me and say I had something wrong or to explain things I couldn't. I plan to make it public when I am sure what I have down is correct. I felt if anyone wants information I can send it to them. I really appreciate your information I have not used family search much and haven't learned to navigate the system very well but I plan to start. Thank you for your information very much if you want the information I have I will be glad to share. My g grandmother was Sarah Elizabeth Stone daughter of Lilburn Stone. I have good solid information about her family until I get to Lilburn Stone. Thank you for your help. Please let me know how you are related to Lilburn Stone. I would love to communicate wil a descendant . Thank you for your help and I will look forward to hearing from you. Kathy

I'm the second person providing info in response to your post! Wish you had a public family tree so that I would not forward info you already possessed? Nevertheless, Lilburn was his middle name and Lewis/Louis was his given or first name. He did marry Mrs. Bettie Simmons, 15 Jun 1892 in Hunt County. That's found https://familysearch.org/ That union resulted in daughters: Ruby Elmo Wardlaw (16 Jul 1895 - 21 May 1944) and Rosalie Llewellyn (2 May 1897 - 22 Jul 1989). Ruby died in Dallas and Rosalie in Bexar. Susan Stone wed R. A. Dyer, 4 Sep 1898 in Hunt. Susie Virginia Dyer (28 May 1878 - 24 Aug 1965) died in Fort Worth.

Hi,
Wow thank you so much. This is my family Lilburn is my 2 great grandfather. I am sad that he isn't part of your family because you have done such a good job looking up mine. Everywhere I have looked shows Ivey as my great grandmothers sister. I know via family that they lived in Hunt County Greenville and Campbell Texas before some of them moved on to McKinney Texas. Lilburn is hard to track but I have more information thanks to your help. I find Frances as his wife but have not yet found a second wife but I am going to continue looking. Thank you so very much for your help you are very kind.
