I am searching for information about my Grandmother,
Emmye MOORHOUSE. Her sister, Nina Moorhouse, was born in Kaufman, TX on

Percival Eugene MOORHOUSE and Annie Ferguson GIBB, who later moved to Fremont
County Colorado, where they ranched until 1920s. Any help would be appreciated.

BELYEN, BELYEU posted by David Hamill on Tuesday, December 10, 1996
I am interested in finding out anything about
Berry BELYEN (or BELYEU) or Belyen who was a confederate veteren buried
in the Texas State Cemetary in Austin and who applied for a Confederate
Pension (#06278) listing Kaufman Co as his home. The spelling Berry is
probably correct as is Belyeu, the cemetary and pension records use Belyen,
probably a misreading of the handwritten name.
I am broadening my earlier query re: Berry
BELYEN (or BELYEU) to include his brother Richard BELYEN /BELYEU, Richard's
wife Ruth BELYEN/BELYEU and also David N BELYEN/BELYEU and (Mrs. RJ BELYEN/BELYEU)
relationship unknown.
All of these applied for Confederate Pensions.
My BELYEU's immigrated to TX from Talbot Co. GA, sometime between 1865
and 1880. Berry claimed to have lived in Kaufman Co from 1880 to 1889.
At times Richard lived in Rusk Co. Mrs R.J. applied for pension from Williamson
Co.

Looking for information on my great-aunt, Minnie
Burton SINGLETON SHORTNACY, who died in Rockwall County before 1920 in
a house fire. She was married to John Shortnacy on October 5, 1906 in Dallas

Would like to make contact with her family and share genealogical data
with them. Minnie was the daughter of William Samuel Singleton and Docia
Caroline Bannister of Kaufman County, Texas.

Jarrett. Stephen and Susie were born in Cass County.

near the Dalton community. The Wallaces were from the Tallapoosa County
