    Notes 
    • Information about the John and Harriet Partin Family was supplied by Bettye Bragg Wagstaff of Bronson, Texas. Her research included the following sources:

      1850 Sabine Co. TX census "1850 Sabine County, Texas Census with Corrections and Added Family Information" by Schluter and Toole 1860 Sabine Co. TX census Morris Bible Record (John C. Partin's second wife was Drucilla Cordelia Watkins White. Her sister married Jacob Dickon Morris. Their daughter, Cordelia Morris Dickerson lived next door to Bettye Bragg's family. "Aunt Cord" gave Bettye the family Bible records in the 1950's. It appears that when John C. Partin married Drucillia Cordelia, they entered his birthdate, his marriage date to Drucilla and the birthdate of his children by Harriet McGrew.)

      A. P. Steele, Frances's first husband, was connected to the Morris family. They were both from the same area of Kentucky. They are living next door to each other in 1860 in Sabine Co, TX.

      In letters to Ester McGrew Hardin, Blanche Toole and others recount a legand of two McGrew brothers returning from the California gold mines, and who stayed briefly with the Partin or Alford family (Harriet McGrew's son in law) on their way back to Mississippi. One was dying, but would let no one attend to him or touch his saddlebag, said to be full of gold. That night he was said to have slipped out to bury the gold. The next morning he was too delirious to tell anyone where he had hidden it, and to this day it has never been found.
