Trying to locate the Parents / Siblings of Sion Pritchard
Sion (Scion - Simon)Pritchard (Prichard - Pritcher)
Born: Unkn
Died: bet 1848/49 Houston Co TX
(Sion's father-in-law is assigned guardian and
Admin. of the Estate of Sion Pritchard in 1849.)
wife:
Mildred Whitehead White
Born: 6 Sep 1811 SC
Died: 2 Dec 1848 TX
known Children:
Mary J Pritchard 1833
Melicia Ann 1834
Levinia 1837
Nancy 1842
Ja (or Monroe?) 1844
Sarah 1846
Sion and Milly married in Lowndes County Alabama
25 Jan 1832.They moved to Mustang Prarie later
Houston Co Texas by January 1836 with the family
of his Father-in-law Stephen White Sr.
As Sion died before the 1850 census, we have only
Tax records, to track him and his signatures on
several petitions, to the then President of the
Republic of Texas Sam Houston.Sion was a pioneer
in Houston County TX, he signed one petition to
form a new county East of the Tinity River, which
was approved by Sam Houston and a county named after
him was formed.
Also living in Lowndes Co AL in 1830 were two other
Pritchards:
1830 Lowndes Co AL Census Page 277 Southern District
Stephen Pritchard000010000000020001
Abner Pritichard000010000000000000
Have no idea if they are related to Sion...
Just prior to 1830 Lowndes was Montgomery Co AL.
Some of the descendants of this White/Pritchard
connection remained in Houston & Walker / Trinity
counties, that last two formed from Houston Co TX.
Will of course appreciate any assistance
on this Pritchard family.
Thank You,
Mike White
