 #   Notes   Linked to 
4251 siblings partitioned inherited land on 27 Aug 1817 and there were only 7 shares. So Sarah had to have died by then. Jimerson, Mary Sarah (I3936)
 
4252 Signed an oath of loyalty to the US as a condition of his parole. Almand, Bennett Simeon (I208)
 
4253 Signed as "Roger Conant, salter", implying that he was free of the Salter's Company and a Citizen of London. Conant, Governor Roger (I8756)
 
4254 Signed as Justice of the Peace to record a deed Bailey, Peter Cock (I660)
 
4255 Signed by Alfred Huckaby and N.T. Huckaby Stewart, Nancy Terilda (I4131)
 
4256 Silas appears to have been named for a neighbor. In the 1850 census,just a few dwellings removed from Wesley Hudson was a Silas N. Norton. Since Silas, son of Wesley, was born in 1836, this would lend supportfor there being some sort of connection between these families atleast that far back. Hudson, Silas N. (I3779)
 
4257 Simon and Margaret had two sons. Family: Simon Johnson / Mary Margaret Bridges (F2826)
 
4258 Simpson S. Hames also purchased several plots nearby to these. Hames, Edmund Simpson (I3239)
 
4259 Since Ada Evelyn was only 16, she was not legally competent to get married in 1928. So, when her dad found out, he immediately went to court to have the marriage annulled. Family: Brady Lee Tennyson / Evelyn Ada Neal (F2923)
 
4260 Since Frances was making a selection of guardian, she must have just turned 14. Faver, Frances (I2870)
 
4261 Since he was able to select a guardian in Sept. 1839, he had to be 14 years old at that time. Since his selection was delayed, he likely was just 14 when he made this selection. On the other hand, the final accounting was recorded 11 Jan 1847, with charges all the way up through 1846. Faver, William P. (I2889)
 
4262 Since her brother was appointed her guardian in 1787, she was not yet 18 years old and was not yet married. Her father died in 1773, so she had to have been born before that. Baker, Maryanna (I723)
 
4263 Since her guardianship was settled in December 1846, Susan likely was born in Dec. or Nov. 1828. Faver, Susan S. (I2885)
 
4264 Since her husband's will called for the estate to be divided at her death or marriage, and the sale was on this date, she must have died or married. At this age, she has likely died.

However, it is still likely that she died before he did, since the will was written in 1802. 
Krugg, Catherine (I4126)
 
4265 Since Hodges appears in the tax list in 1806, he was born sometime before 1788, since he paid a poll for being 18 or older. Council, Hodges (I9641)
 
4266 Since Jane is listed as Jane Matthis in the settlement of her father's estate, rather than Zebulon being listed in her place, he appears to already be dead or gone by the time the estate is settled. Mathis, Zebulon (I4489)
 
4267 Since no children are found in any of the census entries, it seems unlikely that May & Jere have any children.

There area a number of newspaper references to Jere H Cason and Mrs Cason in Mexia, Texas throughout the 1920s. In 1924, there is a notice that Mrs. Cason was summoned to her mother's sick bed in San Antonio. Her parents did, in fact, live in San Antonio at that time. So, this could very well be them. I initially did not think it was since he seemed young to be the secretary of the Chamber of Commerce. But Mexia isn't really a big place, so maybe so.

Following through all the newspaper stories in Mexia, Jere & May were clearly in Mexia during at leats 1924 & 1925. There is a reference to Jere moving his family from one home to another. That might indicate a child, but by 1930, there was no child in the home.

There are also numerous trips to San Antonio for May to her mother's sick bed.

I would still like to find a marriage record for Jere & May. Could have been in Mexia or more likely was in Huntsville, where May was living with Jere's parents.

In 1920, city directories show Jere in Wichita Falls but does not mention May. In 1921, he is working in Dallas. No mention of May. But, by 1930, he is working in Ft. Worth and married. The two of them are listed in the 1928 city directory as well. Not in Dallas or Ft Worth in 1923 or 1922. 
Cason, Jeremiah Harris (I1517)
 
4268 Since she is listed by name rather than by her husband's name, we can assume she is unmarried as of this time. Biggers, Zenath G. (I937)
 
4269 Since she shares a cemetery marker with her parents, it seems likely she never married. Bailey, Anna Louise (I564)
 
4270 Since Thomas was born in Kentucky and Sarah in Tennessee, it seems sensible that they were married in Tennessee. Family: Thomas Dunn / Sarah T. Sykes (F3721)
 
4271 Sister to Lilly June Thompson Thompson, Ona Arlene (I5999)
 
4272 So far, she has been elusive in the 1910 census. Bailey, Anne Evelina (I563)
 
4273 So far, we have not yet found a death date for Sarah. She does not appear in the Massachusetts 1920 or 1930 census. Nor in the town records or death indexes. It seems unlikely that she moved away but we have not found a death record.

There is a story in the Boston Globe about a Sarah Hooper, elderly (62 years), paralytic, who was being transported to the state hospital at Tewksbury and got stuck in a hearse for 8 hours. But, our Sarah Hooper is in Whitman in 1917-1920. 
Peterson, Sarah Oldham (I4850)
 
4274 So, a different, correct, birth certificate says 16 Jun 1871 in Treanmanagh, Kerry, Ireland. The old incorrect one says 20 Sep 1872 Shea, Ellen (I5564)
 
4275 So, was he married twice or three times? His obituary only calls out Mary Phelps and Fannie Cole.

Two more children are known to have been born by his first wife. Both died as infants. John Walker Deshazo was a Methodist minister and circuit rider. He is described in a book on Methodists in Arkansas. After the death of his first wife, he married a much younger woman and had a second family in Tennessee.

Susan Dickson reports his name as John Wesley Deshazo since he was a Methodist minister, a circuit rider.

According to the 1910 Census, J.W. Deshazo was only married twice, not three times. He is enumerated with Fannie Cole, his last wife.

Deshazo--The Rev. J.W. Deshazo, Sr. was born Nov. 11, 1835. Departed this life Jan. 12th, 1918, aged 82 years, 1 month and 29 days. In the year 1854 he was married to Mary F. E. Phelph. To them were born nine children. In 1890 he was married to Fannie E. Cole and to this union were born four children. Of the 13 children, only 7 children with Mrs. Fannie E. Deshazo remain. He professed conversion at the age of thirteen and united with the Cumberland Presbyterian Church. At the age of sixteen, he united with the M.E. Church South. He had a clear call to enter the Christian ministry but for some time the church refused him license because of his inability to pass a satisfactory examination in the common English branches as required by the church, but he being a young man with a lot of will and experience persevered and by hard study and cultivating the gifts God had given him succeeded in securing license to preach when he was about 22 years of age. He was very studious, doing the most of his study at night after a hard days labor, using the pine knots he had gathered to make the light for the late hours. He served as Chaplain at a hospital during the Civil War, during which time he witnessed hundreds of conversions. In January 1868 he and his family with his brother, Rev. L. C. Deshazo and family and one or two other families united with the Shady Grove Methodist Episcopal church in Miss. He was ordained Deacon one day and on the next day Elder, by Bishop Simpson. He served as Presiding Elder twelve years in the M.E. church spending these years on the Holly Springs and Columbus Districts in Mississippi. Spent 35 years in Arkansas, doing some the most efficient work of his life there. He engaged in the evangelistic work a number of years being very successful in his efforts. His experiences as a Methodist preacher were varied and many. Being in the vigor of his manhood during the stormy days of the sixties and the years just following some of his experiences were almost as trying as were some of the Apostle Paul's. Crossing swollen streams, spending nights along the roadside all alone with his blanket for a bed. Sometimes without food, halted by mobs along the roadside, life threatened daring the threats made trying to stop him from preaching in communities, he bravely endured as seeing him who is invisible. His mind and heart were on the uplifting and helping of others and not ease or gain for himself. Thousands have shared a part of God's spirit through his services. Not one blemish can be found against his character and life. True, devout and long-suffering was his prayerful work and his daily walk before men and in the sight of God. He had run his race, had finished his course and had lived three score years of service for Christ and His cause. He was full of faith and of the Holy Ghost. Often during his powerful preaching large numbers would shout, "Glory to God! Hallelujah!" until he was compelled to remain silent for a few minutes and then with new effort he was able to (unclear) the enthusiastic shouting congregation so that he could finish his discourse. He is gone from us but still lives in the hearts of thousands who came in touch with his life. He had often expressed himself as wanting to die in service and at his post. It seems his desire was granted as he was the faithful eighty-two year old pastor of the Friendship Charge in the Central Tenn Conference when his earthly race ended. He died with apoplexy which resulted in paralysis. He passed out with perfect ease and without a struggle and attended the events which he had many times expressed himself as looking forward to with pleasure and rejoicing. His body now sleeps in the Elizabeth cemetery on this Friendship Charge to await the resurrection morning. May the blessings of God the Father, the Son, and the Holy Ghost be upon the faithful companion, the children and relatives left behind with the sweet thought of soon meeting again. H. P. Keathley, Dist. Supt.

The conference minutes do not necessarily bear out all that this obituary says. It appears he joined with the Mississippi Conference of the M.E. Church (NOT Methodist Episcopal Church South). By 1871, he was presiding elder of the Columbus District. But by 1877, he was listed as supernumerary and disappeared from the conference journal. Larkin, however, continued until at least the mid-1890s.

It was said that he affiliated with the Methodist Protestant Church, but those records are hard to find. And by the 1880s, he had moved to Arkansas and affilliated with the conference there (maybe). 
Deshazo, Rev. John Walker (I2502)
 
4276 So, what happened to Amos? Where is he in 1880? That would be interesting

4300 Some accounts say he was born in Greene Co., TN, others in Knox Co.TN.

PARENTS: could have been from TN or AL

Census says he was from TN, Sarah Council's death certificate says he was from Alabama.

It appears that Uriah died fairly early, leaving a wife with children. They then moved with his parents on to Arkansas. Based on the fact that Uriah's father is in Knox Co. in 1811, I might expect to find his birth there, or in Roane County where his parents were married.

DEED: Uriah Allison Council (U.A. Council) bought land in Roane Co.,Tennessee. Deed is in Book G, p. 47.

Based on the childrens' ages, it looks like they moved from Tennessee to Alabama between 1835 & 1837. Sarah Louise was born in AL, but her older sisters were born in TN. 
Council, Uriah Allison (I2136)
