Someone asked about Gideon Lunceford, born about 1849, buried at High Cemetery, Van Zandt Co., TX. He was married to Mary Eliza "Molly" Bullock.

Gideon was born in Wilkes Co., GA to Peter Lunceford and Mary W. W. Knight. Gideon and Mary E. Bullock were married in Wilkes Co., GA, on Feb. 11, 1869. (Mary was born 1843/44 in ALabama to Thomas R. Bullock and Nancy Jackson.) In 1880, Gideon and Mary were in Van Zandt Co., TX with Mary's mother, Nancy Jackson Bullock, in their household. Gideon and Mary/"Molly" never had any children.

Gideon died in 1908. "Molly" lived in various homes with relatives until her death, (sometime after the 1920 Census, exact date unknown). In 1920, "Molly" was living in Henderson Co., TX with her niece, Nancy Elizabeth "Lizzie" (Arnold) Burns-Page (a sister's daughter).

The sister, Sarah E. Bullock was married 1st in 1859 to Robert Arnold in Montgomery Co., AL and 2nd in 1868 in Oglethorpe Co., GA,to Gideon's brother, Reuben Wilkes Lunceford. This family was recorded in Taliaferro Co., GA. in 1880 and they came to Van Zandt Co., TX shortly thereafter.
