    Notes 
    • On 12 July 1929, Bette Rawls wrote "My father [James Thomas McGrew] died when I was quite young and the others were killed and scattered by Indians, so I know very little about them not even my grandfathers name or where he came from--only that they were of Scotch-Irish descent. They were Pioneer Texans and went through all the hardships and privations that the words imply, first settling in Roberston County later moving to Limestone County. I make my home with my daughter, Mrs. B. C. Dunn." (From Wynema McGrew's book. p. 351).
