    Notes:

    Married her cousin

    There is a marriage record in 1836 Limestone County, Alabama for a marriage of Henrietta Faver to Andrew Wofford. Andrew purchased a slave at John Faver Jr's estate sale. John Wofford (Andrew's father) ended up as the guardian of several Wofford children. I don't think there was a divorce, and Andrew Wofford's will names his wife M.F. Wofford. Who is this Henrietta?

    Died:
    On John Faver's 1830 Census enumeration, there is a female aged 50-60, which is presumably Henrietta. So, her death is likely between 1830 and 1836.

    Henrietta married John Favor about 1794 in Culpeper, Virginia, United States. John (son of John Favor and Ann Covington) was born in 1763 in Virginia, United States; died in 1846 in Limestone, Alabama, United States; was buried in 1846 in Limestone, Alabama, United States.

    • Misc: 5 Nov 1841, Desoto, Mississippi, United States; Thomas Hancock appointed guardian for youngest three children

    Notes:

    Apparently, after his death, his oldest three children selected or had appointed John Faver Sr as guardian. Presumably they may have lived with him. The younger three by 1841 were in Mississippi and had a guardian appointed there. That means that they must have moved there, maybe with their mother.

    Possessions:

    Misc:
    John Faver Jr. applied for letters of administration for John Waterson, who died intestate. He applied along with John's wife, Mary.

    Misc:
    E 1/2 NW 1/4 Section 36, T 3 R 6 W

    Misc:
    John Faver Jr applied for and received letters administrative for James Neville's estate on 28 Jun 1838. He was ordered to sell a slave named Daniel in order to satisfy debts against the estate.

    Misc:
    Having completed the sale of John Waterson's real estate, the court ordered John Faver Jr to deliver title to the purchaser.

    Misc:
    The proceeds of the sale of John Waterson's property was delivered to his heirs by order of the court.

    Misc:
    By order of the court, John Faver Jr will deliver a final accounting of the estate of James Nevil 45 days hence.

    However, it almost looks like the records name John Faver Senr instead of Jr as administrator. There is no record of a substitute, so this must by a mistake.

    Misc:
    Being unable to equitably divide the slaves of John Faver Jr between his heirs, the court orders their sale and a division of the proceeds. The slaves to be sold include "Billy a boy aged about 21 years, Rachel a woman aged about 45 years, and Harrison a boy aged about 11 years."

    Misc:
    A slave, Rachel, was purchased by Andrew Wofford.

    Misc:
    Thomas Hancock of Desoto County, Mississippi appeared in court with his appointment as guardian for Esther, John, and Susan Faver. This tells us that they children were in Mississippi and that they were all less than 14 years old.

    Died:
    John Faver's estate was opened in court on 9 July 1838. He must have died after the previous court and before this date, at worst between 11 Dec 1837 and 9 Jul 1838.

    John married Esther Lewis on 12 Oct 1819. Esther (daughter of Abel Lewis and Sally Lewis) and died. [Group Sheet] [Family Chart]

    Notes:

    J.H. Cason served many churches throughout TN, AL, MS, AR, and TX. In 1883, he was sent to the Seymour, TX area as a missionary to the Indians there.

    Went to Africa as a missionary shortly after marriage.Had 5 children who lived.Served in Civil War, was at Shiloh, Chaplin in the Confederacy

    N4, h2

    J.H. Cason is not found among the list of pastors of First Baptist Church in Columbus, Miss. His last child was born in Columbus, Miss,in 1874, so I presume he was either serving a church or teaching school there. Prior children were born in Carrolton, Alabama so I will look for a church there as well.

    This family is found in Columbus, Mississippi in the 1870 census.Census indexes list JH Cason as TM Cason. I am unable to find them inthe 1860 Census so far. In 1880, the family is back in Wilson Co.,TN. In 1900, JH Cason is found in the index as Jeremiha Cason, age 77, in the 9th Ward, Dallas, Texas. This would be ED 73, p. 125B. Unfortunately, this image is missing from Ancestry.Com.

    In 1866-1868, there are several references to J.H. Cason as an attorney in the West Alabamian newspaper. There are also later references in that general area to a J.H. Cason. But, I do not believe this is the same J.H. Cason. Interestingly, he is in Carrollton, Pickens County as a pastor at the same time as this other Cason is an attorney. I suspect the are both related back in Wilson County.

    Graduation:
    attended Bradley Academy

    Graduation:
    graduated from Union College

    Military:
    It appears that he enlisted for a period of 12 months, starting as a Private. During the first few months, he was named Chaplain for the regiment. At the end of his 12 month term, he appears to have not re-enlisted in this unit.

    Military:
    This time, J.H. Cason enlisted for the duration of the war as an officer.

    Military:
    By this time, J.H. Cason is listed as Captain.

    Census:
    J.H. Cason is enumerated in the 1866 Alabama state census in Twp 21 Range 15 West in Pickens County, Alabama. His family consists of 2 males under 10, 1 male over 20 (total 3), 1 female under 10, 1 aged 10-20, and 1 over 20, (total 3).

    Residence:
    Subscribed to the West Alabamian

    Misc:
    On Thursday, the 24th day of Dec., 1868, at the residence of Z. Pulliam, Esq., the bride's father, by Rev. J. H. Cason, Mr. Francis Oscar Evans and Miss Mary Pulliam, of Pickensville, Alabama.

    Misc:
    On the 19th inst., at the residence of the bride's father, in Vinton, Lowndes County, Mr. Wm. N. Hodo and Miss Sallie A. Trotter; by Elder J.H. Cason. May their lives be as happy as the worthy groom and his beautiful bride deserve, and there will be more of sunshine than of cloud.

    Residence:
    A note of the Centennial Mass Meeting of the Baptist association says that J.H. Cason was living in Jackson.

    Census:
    J.H. Cason is listed as maimed or crippled in the 1880 census with the notation that he has only one arm.

    Occupation:
    The Texas Baptist of Dallas says: That the Rev. J.H. Cason has been called to the Jacksboro and Graham churches

    Misc:
    Wedding of Mr. Granville P. Key and Miss Annie McGeehan

    Misc:
    Mr. G.P. Frazer of Jacksboro and Miss Mamie Cason of this place where married this evening at 3 o'clock at the Baptist church, Rev. J.H. Cason, the bride's father, officiating. Immediately after the ceremony, the bridal party left for Jacksboro.

    Misc:
    J.H. Cason was selected as a member of the board of Missions.

    Apparently, there was a a lot of chaos in this convention. Dr. Hayden, the moderator, was not well versed in Parliamentary procedure. Seems that some newspapers commented negatively on how he was running the session. J.H. Cason rose to his defense and criticized the news coverage. He started to introduce resolutions condemning the local newspapers and was pulled down by Dr. Hayden, his good friend.

    There was also something called "The Reddick Matter". A committee on the affair returned a set of resolutions. Elder Battle rose in opposition.

    "J.H. Cason spoke in opposition to the Battle motion. Said 'he had been a missionary to Africa and did not feel that in doing so he was sacrificing his Southern principals, for he was a slave holder, and was opposed to social equality.'"



    Residence:
    Listed as living in Athens in a list of clergy participating in a Joint religious debate.

    Misc:
    J.H. Cason may have been living in Huntsville at the time. This seems likely.

    Misc:
    The Baptist General Convention was held in Dallas in 1899. There was considerable dissent at the convention led by a faction that included J.H. Cason. From the newspaper article, it is not clear exactly what the disagreement was, but the dissenters accused the convention leadership of abandoning Christ's teachings and pushing the church to the brink of dissolution.

    Misc:
    At the Baptist Convention, a number of individuals were denied their seats on the basis of faulty credentials. A large dispute erupted over whether an individual delegate was the person seated at the convention, or whether the church that sent the delegate was the one seated, and then what sort of credentials were valid.

    This was the culmination of 15 years of infighting. The president of the Convention, Dr. Hayden of Dallas, was closely associated with J.H. Cason, who helped draft the resolutions that led to the split.

    Residence:
    The article also lists J.H. Cason as from Timpson, Texas. But other sources place him in Royce. Timpson is too far away to be a two-church charge.

    Residence:
    J.H. Cason took a new church in Carrollton, Alabama in 1901. Bettie was planning to join him shortly, but her health failed and he had to return to her side in Royce City.

    Residence:
    Rev. J.H. Cason is listed as Dean, Texas Baptist University

    Misc:
    Eld. J.H. Cason of Royse, Tex. arrived in the city Thursday for an extended visit to his daughter, Mrs. J.W. Higgs. Elder Cason is perhaps the oldest Baptist minister, in both age and point of service, in the South having passed his 82 milestone.

    • Misc: 9 Oct 1841, Limestone, Alabama, United States; selected William Owen, her brother-in-law, as guardian
    • Misc: 1 Oct 1844, Limestone, Alabama, United States; guardian filed for final release
    • Misc: 11 Nov 1844, Limestone, Alabama, United States; had a final settlement for her guardianship

    Notes:

    Apparently, some of the Favers were living in Mississippi in about 1840. There are account records in the guardianship accounting of Frances in 1841 for expenses for the return to Alabama from Mississippi.

    Birth:
    When her father died, Frances was not allowed to select a guardian. Therefore, she was not yet 14 years old.

    Misc:
    Since Frances was making a selection of guardian, she must have just turned 14.

    Misc:
    This would be the first court session after the marriage.

    Misc:
    It seems likely that Frances was only 17 when she married, but since she was now covered by another man, her guardianship ended and her guardian made a final settlement.

    Frances married Joshua D. Owens on 10 Sep 1844 in Limestone, Alabama, United States. [Group Sheet] [Family Chart]

    • Misc: 11 Jan 1847, Limestone, Alabama, United States; entered a final settlement of his guardianship account

    Notes:

    Birth:
    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.

    Name:
    When he selected John Faver as guardian, the court records refer to him as William P. Faver.

    Misc:
    William must have turned 18 in about January 1829.

    • Misc: 14 Dec 1846, Limestone, Alabama, United States; filed for final settlement of her guardianship

    Notes:

    Birth:
    Since her guardianship was settled in December 1846, Susan likely was born in Dec. or Nov. 1828.

    Misc:
    Presumably, a final settlement would be because either Susan turned 18 or she married.
