Notes:

Married:
They were living in seperate households at the time of the 1900 census, but both were reported as married for 27 years by the enumerator versus divorced or single.

In 1910, Euna was enumerated with son Noah and listed as widowed, but Jim was not present in the home, nor located on the census index.

In 1920, Euna was living next door to Noah, in the home of her daughter and son-in-law, William and Mary McDaniel. Her last name was erroneously shown as McDaniels, but her first name was reported as Eunie, and she was shown as "mother-in-law" and not mother. Her husband Jim was again living in a seperate household, with their son Owen, and also reported as widowed.

At the 1930 census, Una was again living with son Noah, this time listed as single.

Brown married Elizabeth Smith. Elizabeth was born before 1855; and died. [Group Sheet] [Family Chart]

Edwin married Rebecca Ann Catherine Montgomery on 20 Feb 1848 in Sabine Parish, Louisiana. Rebecca was born on 28 May 1830 in Natchitoches Parish, Louisiana; died before 1860 in Sabine Parish, Louisiana. [Group Sheet] [Family Chart]

Notes:

Could she be a daughter of Joseph T. and Lavinia Montgomery of Sabine Parish, Lousiana??? She and her children were living in an adjacent residence at the time of the 1860 Sabine Parish LA federal census.

Notes:

According to SABINE COUNTY HISTORICAL SKETCHES AND GENEALOGICAL RECORDS "Sophronia P and Ruth (White), both had married brothers, Cannon and Richard Travis, cousins of Wm. Barret Travis of Alamo fame (p. 58). The Travis men fought with Marion 'The Swamp Fox' in the American Revolution. R.H. Travis was the son of Wm Travis, and g.son of John and Arabella Hurst Travis. This Travis lineage is a collateral line of William B. Travis of Alamo fame (p.73)"

According to MINUTES 1858-1890 OF THE FIRST BAPTIST CHURCH HEMPHILL, Richard H. Travis was one of the eleven founding members of this church, along with his wife, Ruth C. Travis, as well as his brother and sister-in-law, Cannon and Sophronia Travis. Richard and Cannon Travis's membership in the church was rocky. On several occasions their membership was withdrawn, such as on 13 August 1859 when "Brothers R H Travis, Cannon Travis, & Wm T White came forward and acknowledge that they bin overtaken in a falt and beged the church to bare with them on a promise of assistence of that they would Refrain in the futer from such company where uppon the Church forgive them in love." Their occasions of sin seemed to center around "indulgin in profane swaring....and indulgin too mutch in intocking spirits." Over the thirty some odd years they were associated with the church, they were expelled several times, and usually soon readmitted.

Richard married Rutha Caroline White on 14 Sep 1843 in Amite County, Mississippi. Rutha (daughter of Edward White and Elizabeth Strickland) was born about 1822 in Mississippi; was buried in Travis Cemetery, Sabine County, Texas. [Group Sheet] [Family Chart]
