Dear Joyce,
Perhaps the Henry G. SEGREST and Mary Jane MENARD you refer to in your GenForum message are Henry Clay SEGREST and Mary Jane MINYARD.From a variety of sources and correspondents*, I can say this much about the pair:
Henry Clay SEGREST, b. 6 Oct 1844 in Alabama.Married Mary Jane MINYARD ("Segrest Saga" supposes KELLY but I think MINYARD is correct), in 1878.
Mary Jane MINYARD, b. 9 Apr 1858 in Texas; d. by 1920.
Children of Mary Jane and Henry Clay:
1. Oscar SEGREST, born 5 Jan 1879 in Texas.Married Carrie E. ? and settled in Concho Co., TX.Their children:
