| I am researching the BLACKWELL family of Texas and Alabama. My interest is especially in finding the parents of my great-grandfather LEONARD DAVID(L.D.)BLACKWELL who was born Oct.4, 1862; "Somewhere" in Alabama! I have recently noticed the connection in Fayette Co. between James E. BLACKWELL (Constable-1862)and F.M.TREADWAY (Sheriff-1865). Have not been able to find the birth placement anywhere (exact date is documented on death certificate). I believe the family moved to Texas between 1862 and 1880 (probably before 1870)with a T.C. TREADAWAY(A?)who may be a cousin, to live with the FORD family. TREADAWAY had married their daughter Mollie and they had a son James T. TREADAWAY. L.D.moved to Milam Co. and was married to ANNIE LAURIE KEMP and later to LILLIE WEST. He owned a furniture business in Cameron, Tx. where he continued to live until his death in 1921. Other names I am researching are: JIM PETTY(TX?); Henry Von STRACENER, 1760 Rutherford, N.C.; WILLIAM STROUD, Central,Ky; GEORGE WASHINTON TOOL, Tx; ADAM NEWMAN, Va.; AMOS ELLIOTT,SR. S.C. and MARY JANE SMITH, Tx.; ROBERT MONTEITH, N.C.; WILLIE MAE BOWLES, Tx.; Thomas KEMP, Washington, Ga. Any information would be greatly appreciated! |
