He appears as William Gibbons on the 1840 census of Libey Co. Following the death of Mr. Wallis, Martha married Timothy Ripley Hartwell. William may have possibly adopted that name or else was adopted by Hartwell. Whatever the case, William K. Hartwell enlisted in Company F of DeBray's 26th Texas Cavalry Regiment on Oct 13, 1861. On Nov 23, 1861, he was transferred to Cook's 1st Texas Heavy Artillery Regiment. Hartwell appears as a house carpenter in the 1880 census.

Please reply if you get this message. My name is Patsy Bradley. My great great grandmother was Roxana "Roxie" who was the daughter of Martha Wilson Shelton. Martha married John William Gibbons on 25 Sep 1838. She then married E. H. R. Wallis on 22 Nov 1842. Her third marriage was to Timothy R. Hartwell on 12 Sep 1847.

Martha and Timothy Hartwell had these children: Albert Henry Hartwell b. 1 Jul 1848, Hartwell Shelton Hartwell b. 15 Apr 1850, Roxana Hartwell b. 12 Jul 1854, Timothy Ripley Hartwell b. 3 May 1857, and Martha Wilson Hartwell b. 4 Jul 1860.

Roxana married James Blackshear Hancock on 5 Dec 1872. My great grandfather was Allen Canon Hancock, and my grandfather was Allen Canon Hancock, Jr.

I am trying to locate photographs of Roxana, James Blackshear Hancock, Martha Wilson Shelton, Timothy Hartwell, etc. any of the family would be wonderful. Can you help me?
Patsy Bradley
