WILLS, James (I3130)
 
4004 I do not know if this is William's brother. TUCKER, John (I6472)
 
4005 I don't believe this is the correct marriage record or death date for our Levinia. This William is on the 1870 Census in Randolph County, Indiana, and was born about 1806 while his Lavina was born in 1812 in Indiana. ASHBY, Lavena (I5060)
 
4006 I don't find a marriage record for James. TUCK, James Washington (I219)
 
4007 At least one living or private individual is linked to this note - Details withheld. Living (I651)
 
4008 I don't find much of anything on Louis's family. Brother Everett disappears. Brother Joseph married Emma Rotan in 1884 and were still in Waco in 1920, his death certificate lists his parents as J B Mye and Mary McMinn. MYE, Louis Gabriel (I18886)
 
4009 I don't guarantee any of this information.

4011 I don't know anything about Richard. Was he married? What happened to him? TANKERSLEY, Richard J (I23662)
 
4012 I don't know how many of the children actually belong to Abraham and Mariah, they are the children from the 1850 census. ASHBY, Abraham (I5058)
 
4013 I don't know if any of these boys were ever married. FREY, John Calvin (I11110)
 
4014 I don't know if any of this is correct. LOVELY, Jacob (I3555)
 
4015 I don't know if Brother was married. It's possible that Bonnie was his wife but her death certificate lists her as married and his lists him as single and he was only 17 years old. GEORGE, Lawrence E (I135)
 
4016 I don't know if Clara is Millie's or Mary's. LEACH, Milley E (I3557)

4020 I don't know if Richard had any grandchildren. GREGG, Richard (I22026)

4025 I don't know that Samuel ever married. FISHEL, Samuel K (I23503)
 
4026 I don't know that William, Sarah and Taylor are in the correct families. MOORE, John III (I15760)
 
4027 I don't know what became of Letha and Emily. Sarah, Conway and Mary are not on the 1880 Census with the rest of the family.
Is this the John listed with Elizabeth Murphy in 1850, Monroe County? There is a John B Carter, born about 1789 on this page. 
CARTER, John B (I21356)
 
4028 I don't know what happened here but daughter, Caroline was living with Philip and Susan in 1860 and son, Philip was living with his uncle, William McKinnis. MCKINNIS, Mary M (I23455)

4030 I don't know what happened to Allie after she went to live with Kate and family. BURTON, Allie (I24017)

4032 I don't know what happened to Donnie. I'm guessing that she is also buried at Friendship with her husband and parents. WILLS, Dahuana E (I3029)
 
4033 I don't know what happened to John and I have had no luck finding a burial site for him. He disappeared some time between fall of 1883 and January 1892. I've split the difference for an approximate death date but it's possible that he simply left his family.
The 1857 Territorial census was enumerated 25 Dec and John is recorded as age 7 months, making him born in about April or May 1857. 
LUCE, John (I23688)
 
4034 I don't know what happened to Lottie. I find nothing after the marriage record. JONES, Lottie A (I22228)

4036 I don't know what happened to this baby. SHIFLET, Doloris Ann (I18093)
 
4037 I don't know what happened to this William after the 1880 Census. Don't confuse him with William Harlan, son of George, who married Mary Carter. I cited a Pedigree Resource File for his death date but I don't know where it came from. HARLAN, William H (I21433)
 
4038 I don't know where he might have gone after the 1850 census. ACHORD, Cornelius III (I10801)
 
4039 I don't know where I got his death date but FindaGrave lists his burial date as 12 Feb 1926. THOMPSON, Edwin T (I5019)
 
4040 I don't know where I got the information for Robert. I can find nothing in records for him. I'm leaving him here for the time being but I may remove him as a child of Robert and Elizabeth. MCKINNIS, Robert (I8846)

4046 I don't know who this is, I'm adding him here tentatively. MCGHEE, Albert (I23577)
 
4047 I don't know why her name changed from Neana to Neeley after her marriage. The census records name her Neana or Neanah with her parents but her descendants never knew her as anything but Neeley so I have named her Neeley Neana.

In a letter from Mrs. Ira Clifton (a cousin) to Neeley dated 1/12/45
Garrison, Texas - Mt. Enterprise
JE is at Bruning, Nebraska. Ethel is here and the baby is fat as a "guinie" pig. They are going to Houston. [Ira Clifton 458-88-5080 75961(Nacogdoches, Nacogdoches, TX)?]

In a letter from Georgie Fields to Neeley dated 9/26/46
Humble, Texas to Mt. Enterprise
(Ruben has hurt his arm.) How is Ruben's arm? She also mentions uncle Charlie Bird. (Everyone's uncle.)

An empty envelope from someone to Neeley dated 3/13/54
Annapolis, Maryland to Houston (Perkin)

Another letter from Georgie dated 2/8/68
Conroe to Minden
I'm sorry you had the flu. I had inner ear trouble. Leon (my oldest) moved to Liberty. I miss Reed Mountain and I want to see my folks at Nacogdoches.

A letter from Doule and Virgie Crow (Albert Jr's ex) to Neeley dated 2/28/68
Tell Perkin to come see me when he comes to see Honey and Esther. Husband almost died. Gall bladder burst 12/20/67 and scar tissue wrapped around intestines and blocked it in January. Was in the hospital seven weeks. Bobby (my son) lives in Channelview. Albert is in Pennsylvania, Honey is in Houston. Sonny (the baby) is in Japan in the Air Force. He married a Korean girl and has a baby girl one year old. I am 65 now, drawing old age pension - tell Robert it doesn't go far. (he and I used to talk about what we would do with our pensions.)

A letter from Nervy (Dora Minerva Armstrong?) to Neeley - no date
I wish I could plant a garden. Landlord made us get rid of the chickens. Going to write a letter to Dottis (Ruben's sis-in-law). Minnie (Ruben's sister) lives in Dallas, she is having her teeth pulled. Tom (don't know which one) lives in Boise, Idaho. 
MILLS, Neeley Neana (I25)
 
4048 I don't know why she is listed as Rach A on the 1880 census; she's Ruth, Ruthy or Ruthie everywhere else. Until someone shows me some proof that her name is Rachel, I'll stick to Ruth. JOINES, Ruth (I3217)
 
4049 I don't think any of these people knew when or where they were born. I chose this Anna because her middle initial is F and Amanda Mills lives with her. I don't necessarily believe she is the correct Ann. She may belong to the Shelby County bunch. MILLS, Anna F (I669)
 
4050 I don't think anyone really knows when or where Abraham was born. I chose 1824 because I have 2 sources with an age to make it so. COON, Abraham (I9089)
