Notes:

Robert Cecil McDaniel, a descendant, wrote in his autobiography that "My McDaniel ancestors migrated west from the Edgefield District near Spartanburg, South Carolina, and apparently stopped for a time in Mississippi. They were enumerated in the federal census of 1850, both in Itwambia County, Mississippi, and in Sabine County, Texas." He also indicated that they settled in the community later to be known as Fairdale, in the southeastern part of Sabine County.

William married Selindra Garlington about 1857 in Sabine County, Texas. Selindra (daughter of Benjamin Garlington and Caroline Cynthia Vick) was born about 1839 in Texas; died about 1905 in Sabine County, Texas. [Group Sheet] [Family Chart]

Notes:

White & Toole, "Sabine County Historical Sketches and Genealogical Records", pages 46 and 47 show that "In 1786, Absalom McD. made his will naming wife Bartha and sons, WILLIAM, Hiram and Jehiel. Hiram also moved to Georgia about 1798. Absalom's estate was on the Savanah River. His father, James had rec'd 640 A. plus 756 A. in 1796. In 1813, Alexander McD., Wm. McD. acting as his attorney, sold over 1000 acres of land to Moses Swearingen. Much of the information about the family of William and Dosha McDaniel was taken from a letter rec'd by the late Lewis McD. of Sabine County from a cousin in Alabama, in 1924. The letter was from John Matheny. He obviously copied if from the family Bible, for most of these lines have been researched from then until present, and they have checked out to be correct."

William married Douvica "Dosha" Couch on 23 Jun 1798 in Edgefield District, South Carolina. Douvica was born before 1780 in South Carolina; and died. [Group Sheet] [Family Chart]

Notes:

Sometimes shown as Louvicy.

The daughter of Edward Couch and Apsilia Watson. Edward d ca 1796 sons John, Watson, and Willis, a dtr Francis was the mother of Mamie Norris Tillman, wife of Gov. Ben Tillman of S.C. John Watson is believed to have been the father of Apselia Watson Couch. (White and Toole, p 46-47).

Notes:

In November, 2009, Vernon Virginia Ferguson Johnson (vernon2007@sbcglobal.net) emailed me that:

"As far as anyone knows the Olly Ferguson that married Drucilla Cook was not ever called AULSTON ? he never used this name--this is a different person, but has been so widely reported now that it is often taken as fact.

I want to remind descendants of Olly Ferguson -East Texas that Otey Ferguson in Va is NOT Olly of Texas...Please don't use the man in Va....the following message was posted several years ago.... my line is Olly, Roland,. Roland, Samuel, Jim, Vernon,

In 1993 when I found that someone had Olly's parents as Alexander Ferguson Jr and Nancy Wood, I contacted Christine Huddleston in Vinton, VA. She is the daughter of Edmund T Ferguson, Sr. who wrote "Ancestors & Some Families of Stephen D Ferguson and etc" She sent papers that listed the children of Alexander and Nancy and who they married. The third child listed was OteyOtty born 7th May 1797. Otey married Polly Arrington 3rd Mar 1823: min. Moses reer -surety, Daniel Arrington.

Transcript of Nancy Ferguson will (wife of Alexander Ferguson) proved 7th of Oct 1839 Rocky Mount, Franklin Co, VA. After listing all her children she left one dollar each to children of her son Otey Feguson, dec'd .....Alexander, Elizabeth, Sarah, Absond?, Daniel and Otey.

I would think that this proves that this is not our Olly.

Olly A Ferguson has no record of when or where he was born his age is never given. He did appear to die, or leave, Sabine County ca 1832, as his wife Drucilla remarried Eli Low around that time.

Olly A Ferguson could not have been the Son of Alexander and Nancy Wood their son was Otey/Otty, and he lived and died in VA

These are facts we do know about Olly:
