    Subject: RE: Salathiel Butts

    Salathiels' brother Andrew, who lived in Texas, recorded the names of his parents in the family Bible. They were Henry James Butts and his wife Susan.

    Susan died in Missouri about 1847. I have heard from other
    Cousins that Henry also died and is buried in Missouri. I do not know the date.

    The Butts family went to Georgia in 1844. I often wonder if it was to visit relatives. There were quite a few members of the UPCHURCH family living in Henry Co., Ga.

    _______
    After Jane Lovelady died, he married Catherine Poland, probably about 1848-9. Catherine was born in 1829 in Tennessee who also died a year or two after their marriage. He then married Susan Bounds, daughter of Henry C Bounds, in 1852 in Victoria. There are many letters written by children of Mabra Jones to Susan, who they regard as their aunt. Even though by Jane's death, Jackson was no longer related to the Jones and Lovelady families, except through his children, he stayed close; and Susan became an integral part of the family as well. She is the g-grandmother of Leonard B. Meyer of Halletsville (b 1902) who has been so gracious as to provide much local information on the Jones, Lovelady and related families.

    Jane is buried somewhere in Victoria County

    James Lovelady was a minister of the Christian Church (restoration movement, known as Cambellites - Karl Kiser). James and Nancy removed from White County, Tennessee, with other members of their family to Missouri by 1831, where James helped to organize the Salem Christian Church in Platte Co, Missouri. The family was in Victoria County, Texas by 1845, when James and Nancy were on the Board of the First Christian Church. James and Nancy had three children, all daughters.
    (1.) Jane (married Jackson Butts on 29 Jan 1835, in Jackson Co., Missouri);
    (2.) Sarah (married M. M. Jones and died in DeWitt County, Texas, in 1860); and
    (3.) Ann (married A. Lee on 4 Nov 1847, in Victoria County, Texas).
    Sadly, all three of James and Nancy's daughters died relatively young. However, they remained on close terms with their sons-in-law.

    the following provided by Mary Ehlers, 3665 N. Bond, Fresno CA 93726:
    James was born 1790-1800 according to 1840 Census (Platte Co, Missouri), married Nancy; died in Texas after 1880 when he was listed in the household of grandson George Jones in San Saba County.
    James was in Missouri by 1831 when he and wife Nancy, with William Bowers and wife Catherine, deeded land to Thomas Linville. (see notes of Nancy Linville Lovelady).

    from: John Reedy
    to: Sherry and Alice,
    Our local library has "Missouri Miscellany". It is nothing more than a hodgepodge of genealogical items that some publisher threw together into a series of volumes. From Volume I, Woodruff, 1976:
    "24 Dec 1831, William Bowers and Catherine, his wife & James Lovelady and Nancy, his wife, to Thomas Linville sum of $120.00, E 1/2 of SW Quarter of Section 36, Township 50, Range 33, 80 acres. Witness: George Manship J.P., Rec 31 May 1832 Jackson County, MO)

    This is all there is and probably would not be considered a 'source' as it does not give any other details like a deed would.

    Thank you very much for your assistance.
    ______________________
    The Salem Christian Church, Platte Co, Missouri, was organized 31 Dec 1837. Among its constituent members were James Lovelady, an Elder, and his wife Nancy. He was a minister of the Christian Church. By 1845 he was in Victoria, Texas, where was on the Board of Directors of the First Christian Congregation with Nancy Lovelady and Jackson Butts. He and his wife Nancy are shown on the 1860 Census (Dewitt Co, Texas)

    1820 Smith Co , TN-
    James (1797);
    1 male under 10;
    1 male 26-45 (1775-1794) (James 1797) a bit old
    1 female under 10 (1810-1820) this would be Jane, but 1830 census did not show a daughter born before 1820.
    1 female 16-26 (1794-1804) (Nancy 1800)

    (This is not our James. It is the son of John Lovelady. He was born in 1760 and died in 1837 or so. John was the brother of Thomas Lovelady (John Reedy)

    However, interesting that White Co formed from Smith Co in 1806.


    1820 White Co, TN - James' father Thomas confirmed there, family profile fits.

    1833: James Lovelady is likely to have some additional interesting details from October 1833 (Battle of Mormons or Battle of Big Blue--Kaw township, Jackson county, MO). I have not had a chance to fully follow the clues. The Mormons had a colony west of the Big Blue and there was violence because the Mormons voted in block and others took exception. A Thomas Linville was killed 31 Oct 1833. (Karl Kiser, 4 Mar 2010)

    Letter from Mary (g-daughter) dated Dec 22, 1862 states: "He asked about Grandma & Pap (James Lovelady) he said if he knew where to write to he would write to them.... We have not heard from any of you nor Grandma and Pap."

    probably between 1866-1970)
    Letter from Frances (wife of George, Mary's brother, g-daughter-in-law of Loveladys) wrote from Red Rock (Central TX) in May (no further date) "Pap started down to Lavaca about two or three weeks ago. He went by Mary's. I expect he will stay there some time."
    Mary was in Oak Hill, near LaGrange, TX, Oct 17th '70, per dated letter. (county?)
    (This is apparently after the war as it is said that George lived in near Schulenburg in Lavaca Co. at that time, later moving to Central TX. Nancy must have died by this time.)

    -----------------------------------------------------------
    Letters with information about the churches, obituaries, death notices, names of subscribers, letters from preachers, etc. were published in the Christian Messenger. These have been abstracted with information of genealogical interest. Search for all possible spellings of names--often times I may have copied names wrongly due to the poor print of this reprint or it may be spelled "wrongly" in the original. In Part I the main entry is in alphabetial order by surname. A death reference is in bold face. In Part 2 information is entered by the volume of the Christian Messenger.

    Jane: married 1835; so she's gone.
    Sarah (19) - probably newlywed living with Mara at Stephen's.
    Ann married in 1847. If this is Sarah -- then where is Ann? Ann would be under 10 per the 1830 census when she wasn't born yet. This has to be Ann even though it's the wrong age group. That means Sarah isn't accounted for here.

    Mary writes, "I had lost all trace of Pa's and George's whereabouts. I had written to Henry Shapes to know if he knew where Grandpa was. I have not received an answer."
    "Mr. Dabney and Brother came by on their way home from Lyons where they had been holding a meeting. He said they had seen Grandpa and George."
    Lyons is in Burleson County, but this only indicates there were at a meeting there. Perhaps they were living nearby. Frances writes a letter, estimated as 1877, stating she had "not heard from Burleson" She and George were in Red Rock and she stated that James Lovelady had left there - so, not sure who was in Burleson.


    Census:
    Frances living in Red Rock, dates her letter simply "May." Guessing this is about 1877. She writes to Susan Bounds Butts
    "Pap started down to Lavaca about two or three weeks ago. He went by Mary's. I expect he will stay there some time. I got a letter from Mary the same day I got yours. She was well and doing well."
    Leonard surmised Mary was in Burleson, but that would not be enroute from Red Rock to Lavaca. Perhaps this was after Nancy died, or perhaps it was after Mr. Norton died. Mary might have still been living near LaGrange.

    Notes:

    (from Mary Ehlers)
    Catherine Linville Bowers and Thomas Linville were the children of a constable of White Co, Tennessee, in 1808 (sic), Thomas Linville, and his wife, Catherine. Catherine died and he married secondly Mary Ridge. He died in Missouri and his will writtn in 1836 was very simple, stating his possessions and leaving them to his wife and the youngest four children - Jeremiah, Hyram H., Andrew and Charity. Two of his older sons, Zachariah and Aaron witnessed the will. Two unnamed daughters born before 1790 are listed in "The Linville Family in America - 300th Annual Edition" by Alice Eicholz. It seems like that Nancy Lovelady was one of these daughters.

    (sic) - they married in 1811 in Carter County.


    (From Leonard B Meyer)
    July 24, 1997
    Dear Sherry Sharp:

    Your letter came yesterday, and some material from Wilma came today. I told my wife Ruth that it seems I have acquired another fan in Wilma, that making two, Ruth being the other one! I am glad that what I have contributed is appreciated,d I appreciate what I have received also.

    Perhaps I should make it clear how I acquired this much information regarding such a limited time span. A few years ago, I got possession of a bunch of old letters and documents far long enough to transcribe them by hand, into three bindef legal paper. I started out trying to learn more about the Butts family from which I am descended, and from there the search proliferated into the Lovelady, Bownds (Bounds) and other families.

    My great-grandfather, Jackson Butts, married Jane Lovelady as his first wife. She died August 31, 1847. He married a second wife, Catherine Poland, who died within a year or so, then in 1852 he married Susan Bounds who was my great-grandm. So, you see, there is no blood relationship between me and the Loveladys, except for Jackson's oldest daughter Margaret Ann, who was Jane's only survivor who had children. But Pappy Lovelady wrote to Jackson and Susan as son and daughter, Mary Jones addressed her as "beloved aunt," and Stephen wrote to my grandfather as "Cousin Berry."

    I think there is no doubt that the Loveladys, Buttses, and Joneses were in Victoria County in 1844, as one of Jackson's sons, Andrew, appears as born in Texas about that time. Also I have a copy of a handwritten receipt which goes "Receif Jackson Butts the sum of five dollars in full of his state and county tax for the year 1849 - F.U. Fordham, Ass & Coll, V.C., Victoria County."

    Also, Ann, the youngest Lovelady girl, married Alfred Allee November 4, 1847. And I have a copy of the Bill of Sale of the home of James Lovelady to Edward Fink, Lot #1, Block 117, Range 8, Victoria, April 24, 1852.

    In the statement in the summation sent by Wilma regarding the organization of the First Christian Congregation in Victoria, about James and Nancy being on the board, there is a little error. Those named, James and Nancy, Jackson, Sarah any Jones, A. Allee (Ann had already died) and perhaps Felix Webb, were the whole congregation!

    It must have been in 1852 that the Loveladys and Joneses moved over into Dewitt County on the Manahurla Minnuvee Creek, also called Buzzard Roost Country.

    There was quite a lot of communication between the Joneses and Butts families in the '50s. In 1860, George was going to school in Goliad. A letter from Mary goes thus: "We are all about to leave this country. Pap (James) and Grandmaf going to the mountains. They have sold their cattle." There seems to have been a terrible drought that caused many people to leave that area. Added in a postscript at the beginning of the letter is "I have got the sweetest little brother. He can sit along. He is as fat as a pig." That must have been Henry at several months old; and it is apparent that Sarah must have died soon after Henry's birth. So my date of 1860 must be an error of reading an indistinct date.

    So, Mabry and Mary, and perhaps others moved to Terryville, on the line between Dewitt and Lavaca Counties. But Susan Mariah must have married to A Wiggins and was still living at Middletown or Weesatche. Susan later lived at Hoss Bluffrty County and urged George to come out there, as that area needed a doctor and singing school teacher. But that was in 1872, after the war! Instead, he seems to have married Frances Bosworth and was living near Schulenburg in Lavaca County. From there, in connection with the Bosworth family, we find him living up in Central Texas, Red Rock, Pettytown, maybe San Saba and finally Stephenville. He and Frances are buried in West End Cemetery, Stephenville, Erath Co, Texas.

    I have no date for Mary's marriage, but she and Mr. Norton moved to Oak Hill near LaGrange, Texas. After several years, they moved to North Texas, then moved back. Mary was living in Burleson County about 1914. According to the reuni, Mary had married a Moore, and Sue had married a Linthicum.

    Mary never had any children (by choice), and I am of the opinion that the friction between her and Mabry was because she married and did not continue to take care of his "four little motherless boys" as she put it. Anyway, she tried toe of the boys, as George and Sue did. Mabry farmed the boys out at times, some of them to my great-grandmother Susan. But the 1870 Census reveals that Stephen and Andrew were living with Mabry and Martha then, as well as daughter Nancy and Nellie (b 1864 & 1868) and the 1880 lists a son Joel A, born November 28, 1874.

    I am confused about the children of Martha listed as being born in Chambers Co, after Nancy (Nannie) and Nellie, also Joel A. I know nothing about Laura, Tom, Anna, Alice and John, but those named above were in the 1870 and 1880 Lavaca Cos records and must have been in Lavaca Co at that time. Also, it is a matter of record that Mabry officiated at the wedding of his father-in-law, Dr. Joel Ponton, to Harriet Koonce on October 1, 1871, near where I now live in Lavaca Co. However, it may well explain Stephen's reference to having been to Beaumont on one occasion.

    Incidentally, I have noticed that Mabry and Sarah had a daughter Nancy J, born 1848, next after Sue. About the name ---- in the document about the Organization of the First Christian Congregation, the name is Mayberry, which no doubt is t, shortened to Mabry usually, but spelled Mabarie by Margaret Ann Butts Cooley.

    I have just been checking the list of Mabry's children and the dates given for their births seems to have been made from a faulty memory. Assuming, I think correctly, that the three families came to Texas in 1844, it seems obvious that Ge841 and Mary 1843 were born in Missouri, but there is some doubt about Susan 1846 and Nancy 1848, though I think they were born in Texas. But Cyrus 1852, Stephen 1854, Andrew 1857, were born in Texas because the document of the Organization of the First Christian Congregation in Victoria has the names of M.M. and Sarah, date of March 28, 1849. Henry was not listed in the census of 1860, so his birth date 1863 is probably correct. It is on record that Cyrus Jones was in Goliad Co in 1870, age 18, seemingly living with relatives after the breakup of the Jones family. But in a letter from Mary she wrote that Susan Mariah (Margaret Ann Butts spelled Mariar) wrote that Mr. Wiggins had "joined the church" and that Cyrus intended to. I wonder if this Cyrus was one of the Wiggins children. In this letter Mary complains that Mabry had George and Susan a brother to keep, but had refused to give her one.

    As far as I had known previously, Margaret Ann, Jackson's daughter, Sue Wiggins, and George were the only Lovelady descendents, and I am glad to find there were others. I have been trying to find some of the Jones descendents for some ythout success.

    I was born, not many miles from where the Joneses and the Loveladys lived, in Goliad County, at a later date, Dec 7, 1906. From that you will notice that I will be 91 on my next birthday. My handwriting has deteriorated considerably spied these letters.

    I am sending this information for you to consider, before I send any copies. I will have to go through the letters to find some that will illustrate what I have written. But as I wrote Wilma, I have three binders full of writings, ant want to let them get away, possibly in the mail. I have suggested that Ron Lehde, who lives in Victoria, copy those he wants to, but she/Wilma reports that his copier is in need of repair. Since Sherry Sharp has a son John in Houston, I might make the same offer to him. Or I might leave the material at my son's place, 30211 Charlie Lane, Magnolia, Texas 77355. Maybe something can be arranged.
    Sincerely,
    Leonard B. Meyer

    Other-Begin:
    letter from Joseph Young, nephew, son of Duke Young and Sarah Lovelady, sister-in-law.


    Research Notes:
    Familiar relationships to help confirm Nancy Linville is a Linville - but more info is needed:

    Granville Linville m Ann Adeline Johnson

    Granville is brother of Harrison Linville who married Nancy Bounds.
    Nancy Bounds is daughter of James* Lovelady.

    Granville and Harrison's father Richard would be Nancy's uncle.

    1850 census, North Carolina: Granville living with his father in law and Nancy Young 15 (b 1835) is also there.

    Gan Johnson 68 1783 North Carolina
    Nancy Johnson 63 1787 Tennessee
    Nancy P Johnson 30 1820 Tennessee
    Barnet J Johnson 21 1829 Missouri
    Nancy Young 15 1835 Missouri
    Granville Linville 40 1810 Tennessee

    John B Linville 7 1843 North Carolina
    Washington Linville 3 1847 North Carolina
    Ann M Linville 1 1849 North Carolina


    Ann Johnson Linville's brother Barnet J Johnson. in 1865 Leavenworth Co, Kansas census:

    B J Johnson 36 1829 freighter 21500 MO
    _?_ Johnson 30 1835 KY
    Robt Johnson 10 1855 KY
    Lizzie Johnson 4 1861 KS
    Wm Johnson 2 1864 KS
    _?_ Neal 31 1834 female KS
    Lottie Young 1834 31 MO
    Mary Young 5 1860 MO
    Jane Young 3 1862 MO

    Lottie Young -- looks like she could be a widowed sister or sister-in-law and Mary and Jane nieces - or she could be Mrs. B.J. Johnson's sister

    Lottie Young probably related to Nancy Young, same age, living with Gan Johnson in 1850?
    or could she even be same person? (Nancy Charlotte or something?)


    Duke Young, married Sarah Lovelady, another sister of James Lovelady. he named one of his sons William Johnson Young (b 1818). Johnson name must have connected to Young name, rather than Loveladys.

    These Youngs in the Johnson family are likely connect to the Duke Young family somehow. Looks like Granville marrying into the Johnson family is also indirectly marrying into the Lovelady/Duke Young connection. Also, Barnett Johnson might have married into the Duke Young family as well.

    research notes:

    Gan Johnson

    Nancy Linville

    Research Notes:
    Linville connections to the children of Thomas Lovelady and Jane Wear -- even though no conclusions this shows the strong kinship of the two families.

    However, no Nancy has been found to be recorded in the Thomas Linville family. Also not sure if Linville family was in SC and/or White County TN during time frame to meet up with James Lovelady and marry in c 1815.

Can't establish exact connection, but they connect somehow. Duke named a son William Johnson Young. Johnstons connecting Linvilles and Youngs.

    the Zachariah in 1830 census married Nancy Cash was into the Christian/Church of Christ movement along with my James Lovelady and Duke Young and others.
    Zachariah's daughter married an Allison (see above) another family line threading thru Johnsons, Bounds and Linvilles and even Trapp.

    Notes:

    {Note: Information on the parents and grandparents of Thomas Lovelady was furnished by Sharon Long; JGustaf114@aol.com}

    The following furnished by: Mary Ehlers, 3665 North Bond St, Fresno, CA 93726
    Thomas' children are recorded in deeds in White Co, Tennessee. Based on age and residence, Thomas was possibly the son of either John or William of Greene Co, Tennessee. Although we have not proven any link of the two families, the naming parn of Thomas' family follows most closely the pattern of William Morgan. David McDonald, who researched Thomas Lovelady's family in the 1980s provided much of this data, most of which is verified by vital and census records. Much of the Bounds information was taken from Ruth Dryden's "Bounds Genealogy."
    Thomas Lovelady was born about 1767 and died 1826-27 in White Co, Tennessee. On 18 Oct 1872 (sic) he married Jane Wear in Greene Co, Tennessee. She was the daughter of John Wear (of Robert) and Nancy Moore (of Moses.)
    In 1788 a Thomas L-o-v-e-l-a-t-y served in the militia from Waldens Creek and the West Fork of Little Pigeon under Col. George Doherty on an expedition against the Chicagamuaga Indians.
    (related article: http://carrollscorner.net/HendersonIndians.htm)

    William Lovelaty, Joseph Lovelaty and Curtis Mills wen the same militia. In 1799 Thomas Lovelady with William Lovelady and perhaps Jesse Lovelady, signed a petition of the inhabitants south of the French Broad asking the General Assembly for relief from land and taxation problems. He was on the Sevier Co, Tennessee, tax list the same year.
    Served in War of 1812 for Tennessee. Enlisted 12/10/1812 under Col. Thomas Benton, Capt. Benjamin Hewitt. (from Kirby Wilson)
    Together with his partner Thomas Bounds in 1810 Thomas Lovelady acquired many acres of land in White Co, Tennessee, much of it on Falling Waters, which is now in Putnam Co. In 1812 Thomas Bounds deeded 109 acres on Pigeon Roost Creek to Ts Lovelady, who was taxed on that land until 1826. On the tax lists, Jane is listed in 1827, Jesse in 1825, and Thomas in 1828. On 29 March 1831 Thomas Bounds deeded 203 acres of land in Falling Water to Jesse Lovelady for $1. This deed included the Lovelady farm and dwelling. On 6 June 1832 a deed was recorded in Jackson Co, Missouri, between Jane Lovelady of White Co, Tennessee and the heirs of Thomas Lovelady, including their spouses. These same heirs later deeded back their shares to Jane Lovelady. On 1 Aug 1837 Jane Lovelady sold Thomas Lovelady's property in White Co, Tennessee to Joseph Farris, husband of Margaret (Mills) Farris. Margaret was the granddaughter of Ann Lovelady and Curtis Mills who married in 1784 in Greene Co, Tennessee. The Lovelady Cemetery is located off Cookeville Road to Sparta at the right of Pigeon Roost Creek. Thomas is probably buried there, but his headstone has not been found.

    NOTE: There was a Nancy Maden m Nathaniel Cox 20 Aug 1839, Lincoln Co., MO, possibly his daughter's 2nd husband, or perhaps a grandchild?

    Probably Nancy's mother Jane Wear; she was in White CO TN 1830 census with 3 children ages 12, 15, and 17. This census taken in Nov; so likely Jane moved that year and the children are living elsewhere. by 1940 Jane is with sons William and Andrew in Platte Co, Missouri.
    His father still living, so doubt it's his mother.
