David GWIN/GWINN married "Mattie" Manning
looking for any info on these two, as I have none. all I know is they are the parents of my grandmother FLORENCE MAE GWIN, born March 5, 1888 in Texas.
there is a chance they had a son named RICHARD GWIN, but I have no dates for him either.
don't know what the "Mattie" stands for (Martha, Matilda, etc), if anything. it might have been her given name, just as it is.
any info is greatly appreciated.

Do you know where in Texas Florence Gwin lived? There were some Gwin/Guinns in Wise Co, TX

Re: David GWIN/GWINN married "Mattie" Manning
I have found Florence Gwinn (their daughter) only after she married my grandfather. The 1920 census has them in Brashear, Hopkins Co., & the 1930 one has them in Nevada, Collin Co. She has them both being from Texas, but I don't know if that's true or not. I don't even know where Florence was born. Still trying to figure it out.

Peggy,
haven't found Florence yet, but found her parents David & Mattie Gwin in Wise county in 1860 living with her brother James Manning. it says David was James' brother in law, yet has Mattie still with the Manning name.
my search/discovery has just begun.....i think my family is about to get huge! ;)

Regina, I'm not sure, they might be connected. I believe I've found some GUINN's on the 1870 Grayson Co.TX which might be the David GUINN which married Mattie Manning, with a sister (Millie GUINN) whom married James Manning. ------------- 1870 Precinct 3, Grayson, Texas Post Office: Whitesboro Roll: M593_1588 Page: 121 Image: 242 317 322 Guinn, John 78 M w NC Farmer .....
