ELLIS, HAM
Tommy Brooks Sat, 1 Nov 1997
I am trying to find a long-lost relative who lived in the Masterson Community in the south part of Moore County in 1950. Is there a cemetery for that community, and if so, do you have a list of the people who are buried there? I think he might be buried there if there is one. His name was Orville Lloyd Ellis. He was born in either 1912 or 1913. I have no other information about him except that his parents' names were Lytle and Pearl Ellis of Hereford. He had two sisters: Lena Ellis Ham and Thelma Ellis Ham. By 1970, he had passed away. Also, he got his mail at Bivins Station. Does that name mean anything to you? If you can help in any way, I would appreciate it very much. Thank you for your time.

CLARK, DAVIS, LOVELL
Dianna Mon, 05 Jan 1998
Looking for information on "Red" Clark who used to "ride the range" in the Panhandle of Texas and possibly owned land there at one time. He married Nancy Davis and had two children Elbert b Abt 1885 and Estella Mae b Abt 1889. Red and Nancy both died suddenly while travelling through Van Zandt Co/Kaufman Co Texas in 1890. Nancy Davis Clark had previously been married to Unknown Lovell and had Ada, Emma or Amma, John, Joe, and George Lovell. Lovell relatives took in these children but no relatives of Clark or Davis found so Elbert and Estella Mae raised by unrelated families. "Red" Clark was a big, burly, red-headed man with military bearing, covered with knife scars. Nancy Davis may have been of Indian ancestry. They may have travelled from New Mexico just prior to their deaths. A little more info may be found at ... [no longer extant]

Looking for information on Ozie Briar BURNETT and his wife Martha Elizabeth WATKINS who moved to the Dumas area from South Carolina. Martha is my great-great aunt and until very recently I had no idea any of these South Carolina folks had moved to Texas.
