| 854 | Rachel Ann Hollabough was a daughter of Jacob and Rosanna Harvey Hollabough of Wayne County, Tennessee. She married Emanuel Jefferson Clements there on May 24, 1868, and they were the parents of 12 children, 11 of them known; John Thomas, Mary Elizabeth, Martha Rosanna, Jenny Belle, Emanuel Jefferson Jr., Virginia Paralee, Washington Jones, Jo Anna, Jacob Hollabough, May Watson and Alice Avery Clements. The Burnet Bulletin, March 14, 1907...In Memoriam. Mrs. E. J. Clements was born in Wayne County, Tennessee, on November 6th, 1846; was married May 24, 1868; moved to Texas about the year 1872; and came to Burnet County in 1879, where she lived up to the day of her death, February 27, 1907. She was a member of the Baptist Church and had borne her husband twelve children, all living but two. The pathetic passage in this good Christian woman's life was that for the last ten years she was an invalid. The ablest medical talent of the country had sought a solution and remedy for her trouble but in vain. The funeral services were conducted by Rev. M. J. Allen, pastor of the Methodist Church and the body laid away at the family burying ground, at Bethel, in the presence of a large concourse of friends and neighbors.

| 874 | Rev Brown Married Sarah Taylor Oct 23,1833 in Guiford, North Carolina. (F)Absalom Billoat Brown(b)1780 Pendleton,Anderson,South Carolina(d)March 7,1868 Warren Tennessee,USA (M)Joyce Green(b)abt 1780 South Carolina USA (d)aft 1840 Warren Tennessee USA (W)Sarah Taylor(b)1808 Cherokee Nation,Georgia USA(d)1888 Paint Rock,Jackson,Alabama. Here is the obit for Rev. John L. Brown (Sarah Alonzia Elizabeth Rogers Madewell's grandfather, A.W.'s wife): This is from the Christian Advocate: Rev. John L. Brown fell asleep in Jesus December 12, 1898 at the home of his son-in-law and daughter, Jackson and Eliza T. Brown, near Richland, Navarro County, Tex., where he has been living for the last six years. He was born in Warren county, Tenn., May 5, 1809. He professed religion and joined the M.E.Church, South, at seventeen years of age. At the age of twenty-eight he was licensed to preach, under the presiding eldership of Rev. John Sherrell; was ordained deacon October 17, 1852, by Bishop Joshua Soule, at Pulaski, Tenn; and elder October 24, 1858, by Bishop James Osgood Andrew, at McMinnville, Tenn. He preached for about forty-seven years, and was faithful to all the doctrines and usages of Methodism. Though local, he would often relieve the preachers in charge and go their rounds, while they went home or were sick. In revivals he went far and near. He never fled before the enemy. His preaching was plain, earnest, and practical. Anything that he could not adjust to the word of God was with him but chaff. He was a great lover of the CHRISTIAN ADVOCATE. He was married to Sarah Taylor. To them were born thirteen children. All but four have preceded him. His wife preceded him by ten years to the good world. His firstborn still survives him, though sixty-odd years old. He has thirty-six great-grandchildren, the most of whom live in Texas, where he died. His daughter Eliza and her husband endeavored to make his life pleasant and happy. He offtimes expressed his delight with Texas and the tender care for him the last six years of his life. Often would he say that there was but one thing that troubled him, that was he would rather be buried by his wife at Beech Grove in Alabama. That made but little difference, as he would be with her in heaven. He loved the Texas preachers: Brothers M.B. McKinney, F.M. Winburn, G.J. Irving and others. Our present preacher he never saw, but he held an impressive service at the grave. On the night of his departure, about one o'clock, he held out his hand, and said: "Good-by; don't grieve after me. I am going to a better home over yonder." A few minutes before the last he rose up in bed and told his daughter to fix him a soft pillow to die on. She adjusted the pillow, he lay down on the edge of it, and in a moment said, "Now, Lord, take me easy." and his life was gone. Not a struggle, not a frown; all was over. "Let me die the death of the righteous, and let my last end be like his." We, his children, who have cared for him in his last years, want to say to his many friends and relatives, especially in Tennessee, that if we ever meet him again we will have to live in this life above reproach. God help us all so to do! JACKSON AND ELIZA T. BROWN. | Brown, Rev. John L. (I1693)

| 882 | Robert D. Chapman is one of my DRT (Daughters of the Republic of Texas) proven ancestors. Note: According to First Settlers of Houston Co., TX, land grants were apportioned by the Republic of Texas according to the following criteria: (1) Anyone arriving in Texas prior to March 2, 1836 was designated “First Class” status and entitled to a league and a labor of land. (2) Those arriving between March 2, 1836 and Oct. 1, 1837, were designated “Second Class” and entitled to 1280 and 640 acres. (3) Those arriving Texas after Oct. 1, 1837 up to Jan. 1, 1840 were given “Third Class” status and entitled to grants of 640 and 320 acres. p. 12 of FS of HC, TX - ROBERT D. CHAPMAN 1280 Pre 4/1/1837 (Note: this means he would have arrived in Texas after March 2, 1836 and before Apr. 1, 1837. Since Robert and Rebecca were married in Hardeman Co., TN Oct. 6, 1836, the window of time on their arrival in Texas is further narrowed to between Oct. 1836 and the end of March, 1837.) Martha was the oldest child of Robert Doak Chapman and Rebecca Hodges who came to Texas from Hardeman Co., Tennessee after their marriage on October 6, 1836. They settled just outside of Crockett in a town called Randolph which no longer exists. Robert is last seen on the census of 1850 and it is thought that he died during the Civil War as Rebecca collected "Indigent Family" funds after the war was over but have not found any pension or enlistment information. I have gone back a number of generations on the Chapman and Hodges sides too.
