Notes:

The following information regarding Rebecca Sherman and her family is taken from the Lorraine Barrow Silva Collection of the Wallisville Heritage Park Foundation. This particular item can be found under "Chambers County History Notebook." It follows as such:
"REBECCA SHERMAN, with her children came to Texas some time between 1850 and 1854. She and her husband, Jacob H. Sherman, were moving to Texas from Missouri when he died along the way, November 18, 1850. She was the mother of quite a large family. She stopped in another county evidently before coming to Chambers County. They moved in an ox wagon and when they reached here, they settled in the community now known as Eminence, as it was near the water and afforded transportion for buying and selling. Her family is still well represented in the county. Her sons were as follows: William S. Sherman, Leverett Sherman, Jacob Sherman, Jr., John T. Sherman, Lothrop B., and Richard H. Sherman."

In 1860 Rebecca is shown to be living with her daughter Rebecca Sherman Barnes in Chambers Co, apparently widowed, and next door to Lothrop. In the 1870 census, she is shown to be living with "Hamel" - Richard Hamilton. She is 84 years old.
