Maude E. Boyd

Notes:

The inscription on her tombstone reads "Only sleeping, Can't forget the agonizing hour when those loved eyes were closed to wake no more."

Notes:

Virgie Speights, in a biography of Imboden Boyd written September, 1966, stated that he was a grandson of Joseph Boyd, and great grandson of John Boyd, who came from Nashville, Tennessee in 1835, to settle at Milam, to serve as a Senator in the Republic of Texas, as a sheriff of Sabine County, as well as holding other important positions in early Texas.

Notes:

Listed as Alexander on the 1850 census; as A. H. in 1860 and 1870, and as Andrew in 1880 and 1900. Steve McCalip emailed, in August 2015, that his name "...should be "Andrew Henderson McGown" This is what is on the Bible page of his birth, his father's bible (George W. McGown). I have many other documents supporting this...."

"Received a land grant from the Republic of Texas (bro. of John Franklin McGown). Alex H. McGown was sherriff of Sabine County for many years. All these McGowns are buried in the Browning Cemetery on the Camino Real near Milam." (White and Toole, p 52).
