Robert married Alia "Alice" Duke on 15 Mar 1865 in Refugio County, Texas. Alia was born in Apr 1845 in Texas; and died. [Group Sheet] [Family Chart]

Notes:

Alice's father, Thomas Marshall Duke, came to Refugio between 1845 and 1850. He had been alcalde of the municipality of Austin and collector of the port of Matagorda (Per "Refugio" by Hobart Huson). Her grandparents were Charlotte Marshall and Basil Duke. Charlotte was said to be a daughter of Thomas Marshall, and her brother was the famous chief justice, John Marshall.

Wynema McGrew shows her parents as Thomas Marshall Duke and Jane Wilkings (McCormick)

Notes:

Wynema McGrew writes that the baptisms of twin brothers Guillermo and Juan, children of Santiago and Constancia Tibbett (Tillet) Magrew, Protestants were recorded in Bapt. Rcds. Bk #2, p. 31, and she transcribed this below, exactly as she says they were recorded, in "Records of Old Mobile, Catherdral of the Immaculate Conception, Mobile, Alabama, Section 8, Baptisms, 1781-1850."

123. William Magrew
On 17 November 1788, I, the undersigned pastor of Mobile, baptized solemnly in James Magrew's house, William, born on 24, June 1788. /s/ Rev. Miguel Lamport

124. John Magrew
On 17 November 1788, I the undersigned pastor of Mobile, baptized solemnly in James Magrew's house John, born 24 June 1788. /s/ Rev. Miguel Lamport

[The above children are legitimate offspring] of James Magrew and Constantine Tillett, Protestants, natives of the Tombigbee River, in this District. Cassian Castanares, Sacristan, was the godfather for all. . /s/ Rev. Miguel Lamport

Copiah Co, MS, William McGrue was a bondsman for John J. Holliday and Mary A. Ainsworth, 8 Dec 1825. Also, a daughter of Levin Hainsworth married Col. William McGrew about 1802, any connection?

Veteran of the War of 1812 (DeClouets Regiment), drafted in E. Feliciana, LA in Sept 1814, fought in the battle of New Orleans Discharged in New Orleans in Feb 1815. At the time he enlisted, Olivia's statement describes her husband as "5 feet, 10 inches, light complexion, blue eyes, dark hair, occupation farmer"

Purchased land in Marion Co, MS 29 Jan 1816, 31 Oct 1818, and on 25 Sep 1819, he registered a brand.

Per the book REFUGIO by Herbart Huson, as extracted by Esther McGrew Hardin: "Colonel William McGrew and family moved to Refugio County in the later part of 1851, or prior to 25 January 1852. He acquired the holdings of Capt. Alfred S. Thurmond (his future son-in-law) at Mesquite Landing and operated a large planation house there. He was, perhaps, the largest slave-owner in the county and brought his negroes with him. His children were Dr. William P. McGrew, John McGrew, James McGrew, Henry McGrew, Robert McGrew, who married Alia (Alice per census), daughter of Thomas Marshall Duke, Julia McGrew, who was the wife of Capt. Alfred Sturgis Thurmond, and Sarah McGrew, wife of William Andrews, an early citizen of Refugio County. Andrews later moved to Clinton." Thomas Marshall Duke was one of the "old 300," the the settlers originally granted land by Stephen F. Austin.

He is listed as a slave holder on the 1860 Refugio, Texas census.

Son James McGrew died intestate in Austin, TX in 1912 at the Texas Confederate home. The settlement of his estate shows the names of the children of all his brothers and sisters.

His war pension application was signed by W.C. Terry, M.J. Terry, and A.S. Thurmond, J.P Refugio County (Husband of Julia)

Later Olivia is living with R.A. Upton (Sheriff of Aransas Co.?)

William married Olivia Elvira Holliday on 23 Feb 1817 in Washington Parish, Louisiana. Olivia (daughter of Ayres Holliday and Olivia Johnson) was born before 1802 in Georgia; and died. [Group Sheet] [Family Chart]

Notes:

Wynema McGrew shows her born ca 1806-1810, but based on the fact she married in 1817, it was likely no earlier that 1800-1803.

Notes:

Married:
Married in either Holmes County, Mississippi or Washington Parish, LA.
