    Daniel married Frances Jane Hornbeck before 1816. Frances was born about 1795 in Georgia; died before 1870 in Van Zandt County, Texas. [Group Sheet] [Family Chart]


  4. 13.  Frances Jane Hornbeck was born about 1795 in Georgia; died before 1870 in Van Zandt County, Texas.

    Notes:

    William Everheart notes that Jane Easley age 65 born TN shows up in the 1860 Van Zandt census with the Murphy family (an original Sabine County family) along with a William Easley. This Murphy family is a descendant of a Willis and Priscilla Murphy. Priscilla was born 1801 in GA and I suspect she was either a sister of Daniel or of Frances Jane Hornbeck. (Email dated 7 Jan 2000 from weverheart@worldnet.att.net). Janie Easley Vance instead shows her place of birth as Georgia, per census records.

    2. Clementine Watterson Easley was born on 26 Dec 1820 in Hickman, Smith County, Tennessee; died on 5 Nov 1895 in Hemphill, Sabine County, Texas.

    6. Nancy Easley was born about 1829 in Mississippi; and died.

  5. 14.  Green Berry Watkins was born about 1798 in Georgia; and died.

    Notes:

    In December, 2010, Scott Watkins (firedogger@gmail.com) emailed that "Green Berry's younger brother Alfred L, only had two daughters and no sons. The oldest daughter was Mary Ann, who married Amon P. Morris and her younger sister Drucilla Cordelia who married 1) White and 2) Partin. Both Mary Ann(s) are used back in forth between the family lines as well as William W. and Nancy. I started out to prove I was a descendant of Alfred L., only to find out I belong with Green Berry instead."

    The 1840 Natchitoches Parish census shows:
    J. B. Watkins 0111001000000 222001000000 1 3 1
    A. L. Watkins 0000010000000 002001000000
    The J. is a G. (census writers?) Both brothers are on the same page, just 10 lines apart. J. B. has 4 males and 7 females. A. L. has 1 male and 3 females. Later census shows Alfred with the same numbers and Green Berry with another daughter.

    Green + Elizabeth Smith. Elizabeth (daughter of John Smith and Mary ???) was born about 1801 in North Carolina; died after 1870. [Group Sheet] [Family Chart]


  6. 15.  Elizabeth Smith was born about 1801 in North Carolina (daughter of John Smith and Mary ???); died after 1870.

    Notes:

    Kathy Casagranda thinks she might be from the Easley family.William Everheart believes she is from the Smith Family of Sabine County, Texas. Scott Watkins (firedogger@gmail.com) also believes she is from Smith Family. He states that her parents were John E. and Mary Smith, the parents of three sons and one daughter. He notes that Green Berry Watkins, John E Smith, and Alfred L. Watkins are all documented having sold each other deeds of land in Louisiana. Scott further points out at that the time of the 1850 Sabine County, Texas census, the widowed Mary Smith, age 77, was living with her son, William D. Smith and his family. William was also widowed.

    The 1870 census shows her as being born in Tennessee versus North Carolina.

    Notes:

    Married:
    According to a Conveyance Record CBK G P. 523, Elizabeth Watkins states that she and her husband came to Sabine County, Texas in 1825. This is dated January 15, 1878. In 1840, Green B. Watkins is listed in the 1840 Natchitoches Parish census with 6 female children and 3 male children.

    On page 87, Casagranda cites a record dated January 15, 1878 showing that "Mary A. Constable, Elizabeth, wife of John B. Carroll, Jane, wife of Nathan Cook, Matilda C. Flanakin and Susan Williams, all of Sabine Parish, Nancy Easley of Sabine County, Texas, and William W. Watkins of San Augustine County, Texas deeded Sabine Parish land to Daniel S. Watkins of Nacogdoches County, Texas, who is to take and support our sister, Amanda Watkins who is permanently diseased and helpless." All were heirs of G. B. and Elizabeth Watkins, deceased. (CBK J, P.258). This establishes who their children were.

    In December, 2010, Scott Watkins (firedogger@gmail.com) emailed that "The statement "6 female children and 3 male children" is true. But on the 1840 census, Amanda hasn't been born yet. She was born after the 1840 census in 1841. By the next year, Green Berry and Elizabeth had 7 daughters and 3 sons. The missing daughter is "Mary A." Constable listed above."
