I descend from Winfield Alford's brother Hatch, each of whom had a daughter marrying brothers, William and John Marion Green. I have these children for Winfield and his 1st wife Eliza Derrington:

Piland, M. W. Bowen, and J. L. King; the widow of Abraham J. Alford, Mrs. Johnnie Blackman one-twelfth; and their son Clarence Alford one-fourth. Mentioned elsewhere in the estate was A.

Am compiling book on this, my dad's family and hope to gather more descendants. Winfield stated in his Republic of Texas Pension application that he was born Franklin Co. NC. His father was Isaac Alford, mother's name some say was Mary but no documentation. She was alive when he received Headright certificate in TX 1839 for 640 ac (a married man's allotment), don't know when she died.
