Kay,
I didn't know about DAR #110511 when I applied to the SAR last month. Guess
I'll have to request that one from the DAR, thanks:):)

!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!*ATTENTION LISTERS*!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
One of our very nice list members has brought it to my attention that
the information for RUFUS M. CHILDRESS/CHILDERS is in part not the
correct information. I have included the correct information that needs
to be used instead of the incorrect information that is in the post I
sent to the list earlIER today. Some of the information posted about
RUFUS CHILDERS/CHILDRESS is correct. So take the information included
below and compare it to the earlier post. Sorry for the faux pas. Now
my questions is: WHERE DID THE OWNER OF THAT INFORMATION GET THE
INFORMATION AND WHAT IF ANY IS THE PROOF THAT HE USED.?
Ciao,
Kay
$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$
CORRECT INFORMATION
Roberts application for bounty land he got for being in Fry's Company in
the Creek Removal. Robert's first settlement Dated Sept. 12 1857 and the
final Accrual settlement on March 14 1870. As stated in his settlement
by John Johnson, who was married to Nancy Ann Childress, the list of
siblings and all census are correct It could not be Rufus Morgan
application as he was born in April 1856 and was the last of the
Children. Mary Amanda married Francis M Bruce in 1849 and died before
Robert.. Francis married Sarah Green in 1857. Rufus did marry Delilah
Jane (Shad) Bryant daughter of Rial Bryant and Isabella Womack. One of
his children was Clay Clemons Childress (CC) as sometimes listed was
married to Edith Hays.There is not a connection between Alford Childress
and this branch in any thing noted as of today Robert and Delilah:she
states they were married in 1830 in Jackson Co. That would have been at
the courthouse in Bellfonte which burned. He is not on a 1830 census.
Two possibilities for Robert's parents are: the Childress in Jackson
Co. 1820 and 1830. Another is a Robert listed on 1830 Knox Co. with the
close age dates.

FYI Hi Kay, we do not talk often, but I want to correct some of the
information you posted early today. It is my linage and I have Roberts
application for bounty land he got for being in Fry's Company in the
Creek Removal. I also have copies from the courthouse in Guntersville of
Robert's first settlement Dated Sept. 12 1857 and the final Accrual
settlement on March 14 1870. As stated in his settlement by John Johnson,
who was married to Nancy Ann Childress, the list of siblings is correct
and check to all census. It could not be Rufus Morgan application as he
was born in April 1856 and was the last of the Children. Mary Amanda
married Francis M Bruce in 1849 and died before Robert.. Francis married
Sarah Green in 1857.
Rufus is my g-grandfather. I have copies of his estate settlement. He did
marry Delilah Jane (Shad) Bryant daughter of Rial Bryant and Isabella
Womack. One of his children was Clay Clemons Childress (CC) as sometimes
listed was married to Edith Hays. His son Choyce Clemons was my Father. I
am James Clemons, the last of the Clemons. I have information on all of
these folks if you need it. There is not a connection between Alford
Childress and this branch in any thing I have. As for Robert and Delilah
she states they were married in 1830 in Jackson Co. That would have been
at the courthouse in Bellfonte which burned. He is not on a 1830 census .
I have 2 possible to his parents. One would be the Childress in Jackson
Co. 1820 and 1830. Another is a Robert listed on 1830 Knox Co. with the
close age dates.
If you have one of my cousins interested ask them to send a connection
and I can send a GED. Hope this is accepted in the good intentions it is
sent.

Alfred Maloy Childers Private, 9th Texas Artillery
By Linda Sartin
In Red River County, Texas 1958 Liza was about 78 years old. Liza Jane
was the seventh child of Alfred Maloy (McCleod) Childers and Lucinda
Osborne.
L. C. Childers settled in North Carolina and had about 14 sons. They
had a large plantation which was destroyed during the Civil War. Some
maps still show a Childersville, or Childersburg, located in North
Carolina. After the war the family migrated to Kentucky where the
brothers created a large family owned business venture.One family raised
grain; another raised cattle; one butchered the cattle and sold the
meat; another would tan the skin for leather goods, and so on. At some
point there was a falling out and each family went their separate
ways. Alfred's parents were L. C. Childers and Emily Herrington.
Supposedly Emily went back home to Ireland to visit family, died, and
was buried there. L. C. is supposed to be buried in the McKenzie
Cemetery in Red River County. A triangular piece of land next to a small
church and the McCoy grade school is where L.C. is supposed to be
buried, next to the barbed wire fence. L. C.came to visit when she was a
small girl and passed away before he could return home. It is overgrown
with Johnson grass as high as your shoulders. C. J. and his cousin Carl
went searching, but only found one tall gravestone and a lot of
chiggers.
The State of Texas has since erected a marker in the front of the
cemetery memorializing McKenzie College which stood on that spot in the
1800's. The McCoy school and church are gone. The McKenzie family had
cleared off and installed cyclone fencing to a portion of the graveyard
but the original barbed wire fencing was still there as well as the tall
gravestone belonging to a member of the McKenzie family. Instead of
Johnson grass, small trees have come up everywhere in the older, unkept
part of the cemetery. Sink holes and rotted wood are now where graves
and wooden markers had been. L.C.'s grave was not found.
Some records have been found to substantiate what is known of the
Childers family.
Alfred Maloy Childers was living in Lamar County, Texas when the 1860
U.S. Census was taken. His name is listed as A.M. Childers and he is 23
years old from North Carolina. He owns $200 worth of real estate. His
wife's name is Mary C. She is 16 years old and hails from Illinois. They
were married in Lamar County on April 12, 1860 and her maiden name was
Hulen. Also living with them is Elizabeth Burnet, age 28, also from
North Carolina, also owning $200 worth of real estate, and her children;
Sarah R., age 6 and Cynthia, age 4, both born in Texas. Originally
Elizabeth was assumed to be the sister of Alfred because of her age and
place of birth but there is a record of an Elizabeth Hulen marrying W.
B.Burnette on 22 Dec 1853 in Lamar County. Therefore, Elizabeth is most
likely the sister of Mary. A. M. Childers is Dwelling 178 Family 181.
Dwelling 178 Family 180 of the same census is Thomas Hulen, age 56 from
North Carolina, wife Sarah, age 59 also from North Carolina, and Francis
Ashbrook, female age 3, no relationship mentioned, born in the Choctaw
Nation. Thomas and Sarah are probably the parents of Mary and Elizabeth
although proof of this has not been found.
Alfred was accepted into service as a Private in the 9th Field Battery
on 18 January 1862 at Paris, Lamar Co., Texas by James M. Daniel for the
period of the war. He was 24 years old, 5 feet 11 inches tall, with grey
eyes and light hair, a farmer from North Carolina with sound body and
good health.Alfred appeared on the 28 Feb 1862 Company Muster-In Roll as
Alonzo M. Childers. On the March and April 1862 Company Muster Roll his
name is also listed as Alonzo M. Childers. The Descriptive Roll for him
on April 8th, 1862 has his name as Alex M. Childress. The March and
April 1863 Company Muster Roll has his name as A. M. Childress, being
present and having last been paid by Maj. Dyer to Feb. 28, 1863. The
Company Muster Roll for May and June 1862 changed the name of the unit
from Capt. James M. Daniel's Co.(Lamar Light Artillery) to (Lamar Art'y)
Texas Vols. There is a card for A. M. Childers with no further remarks.
July and August 1862 finds A. M. sick in camp. September and October
1862, A. M. has a Company Muster Roll card with no remarks. November and
December 1862, A. M. is present and sick in camp having last been paid
by Capt. B. C. Jones to August 31, 1862. The Company Muster Roll for
January and February 1863 has A. M. present and having last been paid by
Capt. B. C.Jones to October 31, 1862. A.M. is on detached service with
section of guns at Shreveport, Louisiana on the November and December
1863 Company Muster Roll having last been paid by Lt. Wright to April
30, 1863. A. M. is present on the Company Muster Roll for January and
February 1864 having last been paid by Lt. Wright to April 30, 1863.
February 1864 is the last record of A. M. Childers' service in the Civil
War. John Wesley Childers(Alfred's fifth child) said Alfred lost a leg
in the war and was given 40 acres and a mule in place of traveling money
to return home. There is no record, to this date, to substantiate
this.On his widow's CSA pension application in 1915 Lucinda C. Osborne
Childress states that she and Alfred were married in Tites (Titus)Co,
Texas in December of 1866. The Titus County Courthouse burned in 1885
and all records prior to that were lost. There appears to be no grave
for Mary C. Hulen Childers in Lamar County, or for her parents but
possibly one for her sister. There is a record for Elizabeth Burnett who
died ?Jan 1870? and is buried in a unknown cemetery in Lamar Co., Texas.
With so little concrete data many questions remain about what happened
to Alfred and his first wife between 1863 and 1866.
In 1870, Alfred is living in Red River County, Texas. He is now 33
years old, still saying he was born in North Carolina. His wife is
Lucinda, age 22, from Tennessee (daughter of William and Martha Osborne
of Virginia). They have two children: James, age 3, and Margaret, age 1,
both born in Texas. The US Census for Red River County in 1880 is in
very poor condition. After much searching Alfred and his family still
could not be found although the probability is high that they were
living there at the time. The 1890 US Census was destroyed by fire.
During the years between 1866 and 1889 ALFRED CHILDERS and LUCINDA
OSBORNE had the following children:
i. JAMES FRANKLIN CHILDERS, born 1 Nov 1866, Clarksville, Red River Co.,
Texas; died 1 Jan 1936,Summerfield, Oklahoma; married (1) MATILDA JANE

1897; died 1952, Weleetka, Oklahoma..
Lucinda C. Childress filed for Alfred's Civil War pension in 1915. On
the application she says Alfred died in April of 1894. He is buried in
the Lone Star Cemetery located in Red River Co., Texas outside of
Clarksville. Originally his tombstone was a piece of petrified wood with
his name carved in it.Later a CSA tombstone was erected by his
descendents to mark the grave. The tombstone says he was born 28 Jan
1837 and died 5 Apr 1894. Lucinda said she had been living in Oklahoma
since 1905. Included with the pension application file was a letter by
her son, B. H. Childers(s) stating that she had died before recieving
the pension money and asked if they could use it to pay for her burial
expenses.
