I am trying to resolve a brick wall in my research by taking a detour! My great grandmother was Emma Mary Hamlin, the first wife of William Henry Fleming of Texas and Newton/McDonald Counties in Missouri. In some of my deceased mother's notes I found a note that Emma Mary (don't know which one she went by, but one of her granddaughter's was named after her - my aunt - Emma Mary VanHorn nee Fleming)had two sisters - one who married a Cazort and one who married a man named Moore who lived at Cabin Creek. I read Lee Cazort's bio, and that was not his wife's name, but I am relatively sure it is the correct family, because the note goes on to say that Lee Cazort, son of G.I.(G.T.?)Cazort, "is now President of the Senate and is.." end of delapidated note that is decades old and brown with age, which was in my mother's papers. None of the family knows much about E. Mary, because she died very young. My grandfather and his brother were tiny boys about 7 and 5 years of age at the time. Claude was born May 4, 1879, and he was a few years old at the time of her death. One of the things he remembered vividly was that she had luxurious, beautiful hair, and when she washed it, she had to turn her head upside down to dry it because there was so much of it. Emma is buried around Thorpe Springs (where son Claude, my grandfather was born) or maybe Sweetwater, according to her note, and that his (Claude's) grandfather might be buried in Austin, Texas.Father of Claude is William Henry Fleming. No luck on the father of William. He is a tough one too. I have never been able to find Mary's grave, and I have been doing genealogy for a long time. She still evades me, and local services have not been helpful.. Any clues will be appreciated. Many thanks. Her great granddaughter..
