BonnieMargaret Jacob's refers to her as "the daughter of the farmer of Aichenbach." (p. 53). The parish records transcribed on page 91 show her parents as Joh. Jacob H?fner, Bauer in Aichenbach, and Magdalena B?hler.
She stated that Eva H?fner remarried in 1789, a year after Jacob's death, and it appears she may have married a relative, and in 1795 she was divorced, apparently by a husband who preferred a woman who would be (and was) willing to bear his children. On page 93 of her manuscript, it is shown that Eva's second marriage was to Jacob B?hler, employed as a vintner.
In a footnote, BonnieMargaret said that German law on hereditable properties provides a possible explanation for Eva remarriage and subsequent divorce. Citizens did not own their land, but it was the lease of that land that was heriditable. In some areas of Germany, a widow had to be remarried within a year of her husband's death to retain the tenenancy on the land. Her remarriage falls within that time frame, and her divorce was at the time her son Johann Jacob achieved master and citizen status. Thus it is probable that the marriage, apparently to a relative, was a marriage of convenience to retain the land tenancy for her children at their ages of majority. (p. 54).

Mrs. Leona Haines Cramer, 82, died in her residence at 36 Sherman street about 1:30 o'clock Monday morning following an illness of three years.
Mrs. Cramer was born in Liberty Mills on March 18, 1868 to Job and Sarah (Meadows) Haines. On Oct. 15, 1885 she married Charles Cramer who died in 1920.
She has been a resident of Wabash for 66 years and was a member of the Wabash Street Methodist chruch.
Surviving are two daughters, Mrs. Charles Sweet, Wabash, and Mrs. Reuben Lutz, Peru; one sister, Mrs. William Tay, Elkhart, and one grandchild.

"Bill" was only two years old when his father was ambushed, and his mother Nancy Hainsworth McGrew Phillips did not maintain such an honorable family reputation. In the "Voice of Sumter," August 9, 1836, she was denounced by Regulators, as a "Jezebel" for harboring mixed Indians and borderers among her clan, and for aiding and abetting the Kemp-McGrew feud. The article by Louis C. Gaines called for her to be driven from the country, but she said she would "die on the grit." Evidently, she did choose to return to Texas. She had been listed in the failed Wavell's colony in Texas in 1830, causing her to remain in Alabama, but 1850 she was in Leon County, Texas, whether by choice or force is unknown.

Obituary, copied from FindAGrave memorial created by Ruth M. Brown:
Horace Burnard "H.B." Halbert Jr., M.D., 77, of Round Rock, passed away Friday, March 11, 2011, at the scene of a one-car collision near Jewett, Texas. A celebration of H.B.'s life will be 10 a.m. Thursday, March 17, at Central Baptist Church in Jacksonville, Texas.
Dr. Halbert was born in Frankston, Texas, to the late H.B. Halbert Sr. and Mattie Petri Halbert. After H.B.'s graduation from Frankston High School in 1950, an athletic scholarship led him to Schreiner College in Kerrville. Then his appointment to the United States Military Academy took him to West Point, N.Y. Deciding to pursue a medical degree, H.B. transferred to the University of Texas at Austin to complete his undergraduate studies. He graduated from UT Southwestern Medical School, and took his internship and residency at Methodist and Parkland Hospitals. His medical specialization was Family Practice. He spent the next 48 years pursuing his lifelong passion.
For over 30 years, Dr. Halbert served the community of Rosebud, Texas, providing care from cradle to grave at the facilities he established, Halbert Clinic, Halbert Hospital, and Heritage House Nursing Home. It is estimated that during this time, he delivered about 3,000 babies. Patients of this era will remember his standard wardrobe: green scrubs, red socks. After leaving Rosebud, Dr. Halbert practiced in Whitney, Burkburnett, Frankston, Huntsville, Sealy, and Pasadena. Highly competitive, H.B. took pleasure in many sports and games. Although an avid fan of the Longhorns and the Cowboys, he always held a keen interest in high school football as well. H.B. was deeply honored when Rosebud-Lott asked him to return as team doctor for their state championship game in 2002, which the Cougars won. An enthusiastic hunter, he typically had a bird dog. Anyone who played bridge or "42" with him soon learned that he could count cards and see through dominoes.
H.B. was preceded in death by his brothers, Eddie Halbert and Gaylon Halbert; and sisters, Irene Tatum, Virginia Saunders, and Jean Baron.
He is survived by his wife, DeAnn Halbert, of Round Rock; children, Leslie Higgins and Laura Halbert, of Austin, Robin Polk, of Rosebud, Adrianne Charfoos, of Chicago, Ill., Richard Halbert and Elizabeth Thigpen, of Chilton, Kristen Ryder, of Oakwood, and Will Halbert and Kirill Halbert, of Trinity; eight grandchildren; sister, Lynne Orr, of Jacksonville; and scores of nieces and nephews.
Io Halbert McIlhaney, 97, of Lubbock passed away on Monday, May 3, 2004, following a brief illness at her longtime home at Carillon Village.
She was born the fifth of nine children to Levi Thompson Halbert and Mary Ann Armstrong Halbert on Sept. 23, 1906 in Milam, Sabine County. Io graduated from Milam High School in 1924 and received an Elementary Teaching Certificate from Stephen F. Austin State College in 1926. She taught school in the Houston area for several years and held a Lifetime Teaching Certificate from the State of Texas. She met Joe S. McIlhaney, owner of McIhaney Creamery in Lubbock, during one of his frequent business trips to Southeast Texas. They married in September of 1934. He preceded her in death in 1999. A daughter, JoAnne Conely, also preceded her in death.
Io was a woman of extraordinary abilities and energy. Her many activities and interests included membership in the Lubbock Women's Club, the Lubbock Women's Forum, and the Allegro Music Club. She was continually involved in the PTA while her children were in school. She served as president of Carroll Thompson PTA, president of the Lubbock City Council PTA, and received life membership in the Texas Congress of Parents and Teachers. Community activities gave her great pleasure, particularly her dedicated service to the Lubbock Well Baby Clinic and her longtime volunteer work as a docent at the Western Heritage Center.
She later received a lifetime membership in the West Texas Museum Association. Io was a faithful and involved member of the Lubbock First Baptist Church from the very beginning of her life in Lubbock. She was active in the Women's Missionary Union and taught a women's Sunday school class for many years. She was a longtime member of the church choir and in her latter years loved being a member of the church's Prime Time Singers. Above all, Io was sustained by her joyous love of the Lord and devotion to her family.
It has been said that an important part of life is just "being there," and Io was always there - for her family, for her friends, for her church, for people who needed her, and for the entire Lubbock community. In recognition of her years of interests and service she was nominated for, and given, the "Outstanding Older Texas Award" by the Governor of Texas.
Io is survived by a daughter, Nancy J. Rainwater and her husband, Clois, of Honey Grove; three sons, Joe S. McIlhaney, Jr., M.D. and his wife, Marion, of Austin, Richard G. McIlhaney and his wife, Martha, of Copper Canyon, and David L. McIlhaney and his wife, Jane, of Ventura, Calif.; a sister, Lollie Lee of Waco; 14 grandchildren; and 19 great-grandchildren. Funeral services will be at 10 a.m. Friday, May 7, 2004, at the Ford Chapel of First Baptist Church with the Rev. John H. Ballard officiating. Interment will follow at Resthaven Memorial Park under the direction of Sanders Funeral Home. The family will receive friends from 6 until 7:30 p.m. Thursday at the funeral hom e. Pallbearers will be Jason McIlhaney, Scott McIlhany, Kevin McIlhany, Mark Connell, and David Lutz. The family would like to thank the staff of Carillon Village for the love and excellent care provided to their mother during the last seventeen years, and particularly the staff of Carillon House, who cared for her during her final days. In lieu of flowers, the family suggests donations to the Carillon Foundation.

I am assuming that James Ferman Halbert was listed in the 1900 census as James T. Halbert, a son of William Washington Halbert and Mary Chambers. Per the 1900 census, he was born circa 1892, which would make him approximately two years older than his wife. The middle intial T and F could be easily confused.
When he registered for the draft during World War I, he listed his date and place of birth as 11 July 1891 in Milam, Texas. He was a farmer, employed by W. W. Halbert, presumably in father, of Milam. He had a wife and one child listed as dependants. He was of Medium heighth and build, with gray eyes and brown hair. His application was completed on June 5, 1917.
Bernie Thacker thinks that his grandfather, James Ferman Halbert, "just might be the same. In the listing that you send there was a Willie C. Halbert and I have since found out that my grandfather (James F or T) did have a brother named Willie."
This should be verified by a birth or death certificate if possible.
