There is a distant cousin to my mom who wrote a book on the Eble family, her name is Violet Jersey Brown, I believe. It is in the Library of Congress, you can get a copy of it. It has quite a lot of Ebles in it. My family lived in Indiana and Nebraska, then Iowa, so I don't have much information about Texas. I have always wanted to know how Jean Baptiste Eble was related to my great great grandfather, and you have given me some clues. It sounds like they may have been cousins. My hard copy is being shipped to me, so when it comes, I will look up the names you have mentioned and see if they are there.
