Think we are same family,ancestors.My gggfather was James Phifer m. to Sarah Louise Ayers(Ayres). He was a brother to Forest.Found quite an biographical on Forest in Limestone Co. History Book.Says father was Bradley.Most of the info was on the descendants of Forest. But that he arrived in Texas just after the fall of Fort Parker in May 19, 1936.Also stated he convinced his widowed father Bradley to come to Texas to buy cheap land, which he did, two sections of patented land @ 25 cents per acre.Forest wife Evaline died April 1850 and is listed in the Mortality census for that county.He married shortly to Lucretia. I personally know very little about the Forest line except what is written by Elizabeth Clough McPherson, about 7 pages in this book.I am still trying to document all siblings, etc.Hope this helps.
