I am curious as to the Chastain and Gage link. My great grandmother, Lucinda Elizabeth "Bettie" Chastain of Fort Smith Arkansas (b. June 6, 1874) married William Thomas Gage (b. 1864 in Red River Valley, TX). His father was William Warren Gage of Missouri who moved to East Texas we believe. William Warren married Mira Hicks Breedlove of Greene County, Missouri and had Wm. Thomas I guess in Texas. Wm. Warren died when Wm. Thomas was six months old in late 1864. Mira remarried 3 more times -- Thomas P. Silkwood, William A. Sanders/Saunders and then a Mr. Stevens. She died in Claremore, Oklahoma.

Lucinda Chastain and Wm. Thomas Gage had 5 children, most in Indian Territory in late 1890s and then moved west... to CA with last child, my grandmother, Maude May Gage, b. 1905 in LA, CA.
So... any information with this Gage-Chastain link or others is appreicated. Would love to know more of my Gage side of the family. Notes from my grandmother said they came from NC originally.
