    Notes 
    • According to the MINUTES 1858-1890 FIRST BAPTIST CHURCH HEMPHILL, TEXAS, Theodosia Travis was received by experience and baptized by Minister J.J. Rountree on July 26, 1879.

      Elder Rountree apparently had more than Bible Study on his mind. In April, 1883, he was investigated for, and found guilty of "gross unchristian conduct. Guilty of Seduction and adultery...all the churches of which Eld. Rountree was Pastor of to be notified of the meeting and invited to send deligates to said meeting to participate inthe investigation and deliberations...Resolved further that this Church withdraw fellowship from Theodosia Travis for gross unchristian conduct." The charges against Rountree were sustained and fellowship was withdrawn from him in June 1883. No mention is made of the charges against Theodosia.

      (Note: These references might instead be to Theodosia's older cousin, also named Theodosia Travis, the daughter of R.H. and Ruth (White) Travis who was born in 1858. As is appears that the R.H. and Ruth Travis family moved from Sabine County prior to 1880, they are most likely about this Theodosia).

      Yvonne Parish Kattawar--Family Researcher (470 Piney Point, Sour Lake, TX 77659) reports that Theodosia married Milton Anthony.
