I found an old newspaper article in our town newspaper files (This article dated 1906) which tells of the visit in our town (Brundidge, Alabama) of Ms. Molcie Chenault to HER UNCLE, James Graves. She was apparently on a visit to her daughter, who at that time lived in Headland, Alabama but stopped over here to visit her uncle. Mr. James Graves, who died here in 1907, was an old Confederate soldier. His grave was un-marked until last year when I put a marker on it. I don't know if Mr. Graves was a brother of Ms. Chenault's father or mother. Would like, if possible, to know more about the relationship of these two people.

Is there anyone out there that is a direct descendant of John W. & Mary E. (Stephens) Chenault? John was born abt 1848 in Lawrence Co, TN last known address was the 1900 census, family was in Fannin Co, TX. Mary was born abt 1852 in Lawrence Co, TN last know address was the 1910 census,and I believe Willbarger Co, TX with her son Jobe. Known children are
Lavina b. 1873 TN
William Walter b. 1874 TN
David Samuel b. 1875 TN
Nancy Evaline b. 1877 TN
Sally b. ?? TN
Georgia P. b. 1882 TN
Jobe Alexander b. 1885 TN
Nelson Porter b., 1887 TX
Rosa Lee b. 1889 TX

Nelson Porter is my great-grandfather. he died when my grandmother was only 7 years old. the family lost contact with the chenault family after this. From what i can understand, his family never knew when he died.
I would like to know as much as possible about this side of my family.
