William married Nannie Burns about 1905 in Texas. Nannie was born about 1889 in Texas; and died. [Group Sheet] [Family Chart]

Notes:

On the "Johnson Family Tree" at Ancestry, he is shown as a son of James CONN and Martha Ann GIBSON. At the time of the 1850 Federal Census, a 21 year old John Conn was living in the home of Thos and Anne Gibson in Marion County, Mississippi. John was listed as farming. Thomas, age 48, was a Baptist Parson born in North Carolina, and Anne, age 24 was born in Mississippi. Thomas and Anne were presumably the parents of the 10 Gibson children also in this household, ranging in age from 17 to 1. They were John, H., Elijah, Elisha, N., C., S., M., E., and Abi.

Not able to locate John on the 1860 census with his wife or children.

John married Sarah Jones on 9 Jan 1856 in Columbia County, Arkansas. Sarah was born in Jun 1836 in Mississippi; died on 5 Oct 1917 in Sabine County, Texas. [Group Sheet] [Family Chart]

Notes:

At the time of the 1900 and 1910 Sabine County, Texas census, the widowed Sarah was living in the home of her son and daughter-in-law, Anderson and Mattie Conn.

Notes:

Virgie Speights, in a biography of Imboden Boyd written September, 1966, stated that he was a grandson of Joseph Boyd, and great grandson of John Boyd, who came from Nashville, Tennessee in 1835, to settle at Milam, to serve as a Senator in the Republic of Texas, as a sheriff of Sabine County, as well as holding other important positions in early Texas.

Benjamin married Tibatha Emeline Halbert. Tibatha (daughter of Joel Halbert and Emeline Grindle) was born on 17 Dec 1852 in Texas; died on 12 Jan 1926 in Milam, Sabine County, Texas; was buried in New Hope Cemetery, Milam, Sabine County, Texas. [Group Sheet] [Family Chart]

Notes:

Although the transcription of the New Hope Cemetery shows her as Tibatha Dorsey, it appears that after Frank Dorsey died in 1886, she remarried Stephen JONES, probably around 1889, as the 1900 census shows they had been married 11 years. Three of her children by Frank Dorsey are listed as JONES in 1900. Since all were born prior to 1889, and since other records show Dosie and William J. had the last name of Dorsey, it is assumed this is in error. In 1910, the widowed Tibatha Jones is living between son Will Dorsey (shown as Will Jones in 1900) and daughter Rosa Dorsey Chambers.

The 1910 census shows her as the mother of nine children in total, 7 born to Frank Dorsey and 2 born in Stephen Jones. Two of these children had predeceased her.

Virgie Speights wrote that she owned a loom on which cloth was woven for skirts, trousers and dresses, and beautiful blankets and coverlets.
