I’m looking for WEAVER, and CLARK descendants who might know about the murder near Gilmer, Upshur Co., TX of my Martha Susan WEAVER GRAVES LOGAN ?????? b.ca.1856-d.ca.1883.
I’m interested in Martha Susan WEAVER b.ca.1856. The story I have from my mother-in-law in the 1970’s goes like this.
Martha m1.ca.1872 Mr. GRAVES and had Mary ca.1873 and Joseph T. b.ca.1875 (he m. Sally CAGLE)
--- - - - Mr. Graves died about 1875-1877
Martha m2.1877 James R. LOGAN and had Ola L. 1879-1912 (she m. William L. TERRY) and Laura b.ca.1880
--- - - - James R. Logan died ca.1880
Martha m3.ca.1880 ???? a wealthy farmer with metal plate in his head.
--- - - - Wealthy famer kills wife, some kids, 1 negro boy, and himself in 1880’s near Gilmer, Upshur Co., TX.
Martha comes from this WEAVER family:
