I have John and Margaret Cook Chisam, Isham Russell and Permedia Roberts Chisam (died in Nacogdoches, TX, which is in East TX where I live, here by 1835 Republic of Mexico Census, Sarah Jane Or Flora Ann (MS records has Flora Ann)married Martha Allen Rowland/Roland (don't ask me about the Martha, he was listed with that name, who is the father of my Susan Amanda Rowland/Roland and Joseph Leonard Allsbrooks, as noted on the death certificat of Joseph by my grandfather, James Bleuitt Allsbrooks.
The Roland married into the Thomas and Chisum/Chishum and seemed to have traveled west in groups. I've been told Amanda or Mandy married Lewis Alsobrooks (notice our name is spelled many ways) but I only have one census in LA with that name. They were listed as Brooks in the earlier census, Osbrooks in even earlier census (all in Calcasieu, Lake Charles, LA area and since their son married Margaret (Sarah) Josephine Glass there and all his brothers were listed I'm sure this is his family. Found him looking for my husband's line.
The Frances and Sarah Varner Glass was the father of James Wesley and Sarah Ann Chitty Glass, (Mecklenber Co NC- Coneoh Co, AL) were Jossphine's family, Josephine die in Angelina Co, TX, up the street from where I lived.
Susan Amandy was called "Mandy" and was short, dark, grandpa said she was "Deustch" (yes that's real, understand it was where 3 or 4 countries came together, Germany, Holland, France etc (my memory lapse) basically a valley and they intermarried. There was "White" (blond, blue eye, light skin) and Black (dark hair, skin, eyes) Deustch though they could be in the same family due to inherited traits. Mandy was considered Black deutsch by grandpa, though he called her a "wop". She was short, wore long dark dresses and walked with a limp from an accident in which her carriage overturned and she broke her hip.
If anyone knows anything about this family, or stories, I'd love to hear them. Grandpa Jim was my heart.
James Wesley was a doctor and 3 of his sons as well and I think he may have died in LA but his family settled in Angelina, Tyler, and Harris Co as well as Jefferson Co, TX. Some went back to LA and one is buried in Baytown, TX, one became a minister. Mom knew them and name the children and even wifes though the names are sometimes nicknames.
My grandfather's picked up a lot of medical training from them as the locales brought not only themselves but livestock to him when ill.
They left LA for TX in 1900 before or after and are listed, my ggrandfather and gggrandmother as Alsobrooks and owed delinquent 1900 taxes.
I am looking for a wedding documentation for Mandy Rowland/Rolad and would appreciate it if anyone has that and would share. I will be glad to share my data and you may contact me at ahumble(a)consolidated.net.
I brave the fruadal world because I want to know more about my family. They lived on the banks of a river in LA around Leesville, LA and Mansfield or Many. Please contact me
