Generation: 1
1. | James Tate McGrew was born before 1783 in St. Stephens, Mississippi Territory; died after 1839 in County of Robertson, Republic of Texas. Notes:
According to the book THE SOUTHERN McGREWS GREW James Tate McGrew is first heard of when he signed a Memorial to Congress in 1803. He was a veteran of the War of 1812. They can be found on the Marion Co, MISS census in 1816. In 1818, James and three of his brothers were charged with assault and battery. They were in Yazoo Co, Miss by 1830. They moved to Robertson County, Texas in 1834. He also had land in Refugio County, Texas.
Esther McGrew Hardin believes that the family went from Marion County to Yazoo County MS before the 1830 census. Lots of children in 1830. Moved to Texas in 1834. She heard a story that they saw the "stars fell on Alabama" shower on their move to Texas. James T. McGrew had a land grant in Refugio County near his brother William McGrew per the Land Maps of Texas showing original land grants.
Wynema McGrew stated that James Tate received a First Class Headright, No. 45, dated 5 Feb 1838 by the Board of land Commissioners of Robertson County, Texas. She also transcribed another certificate as reading:
Republic of Texas No. 90. This is to certify that James T. McGrew has appeared before us, the board of land commissioners for the county of Robertson, and proved according to the law that he arrived in this county October 1834 and that he is a married man and entitled to one Labor of Land, upone the condition of paying at the rate of $3.50 for every labor of irrigable land, $2.50 for every labor of temporal or arable land, and $1.20 for every labor of pasture land, which may be contained in the Survey secured to him by this Certificate. Given under our hand this 5th day of February 1838, Thomas Dillard, President, Thomas ? Dunn, L. Hart, Associate Commissioners.
Wynema also notes that in Robertson County in 1838, Jas. T. McGrew was shown on the tax roll with 75 cattle and no poll.
Esther McGrew Hardin of San Antonio had received a transcription of the Will of James Tate McGrew from Juanita Johnson of Clovis, New Mexico. It was transcribed as follows:
I, James Tate McGrew of the Republic of Texas, County of Robertson, do make and publish this my last will and testament revoking all former wills, which may have been made by me at any time previous. And the wordly (goods?) that it has pleased God to entrust (me??) I dispose of as follows. First I direct that all my debts be paid out of the first money that shall come into the hands of my executors from any portion of my Estate real or personal. Also I direct that all my stocks of hogs except six sows and pigs be sold on credit of six months at some time during the next winter (that?) my executors may think best. I also direct that my oldesy yoke of oxen and the largest steers of my stock together with a few milch cows amounting in all between twenty and thirty head be sold at some time in the Spring of 1840, on a credit of six months also that the corn growing upon my bottom plantation be cribed and sold some time during the coming fall season and I further direct that the proceeds of all such sales be (divided?) amongst my heirs as follows:

and the remainder of my sons and daughters and my wife to share and share equal of the remainder. And of the remaining unsold portion of my stock of cattle and the reserve of my stock of hogs together with my small black mare, my household and kitchen furniture I give and bequeth unto my wife.

I further direct that should JOHN FLOOD McGREW fail to hold ? the ? land now deeded to him in fee simple title -- that he have one equal share of my real estate with my wife and the last mentioned sons and daughters. I also direct that the amount given to the heirs of George W. McGrew be retained in the hands of my executors at interest until the daughter of said George W. McGrew shall be of sufficient age to require the same for the purpose of education and then that it be appropriated for that purpose. The heirs or representatives of any of my children who shall have died between the time of my decease and such division or distribution of - to be entitled to such share or shares as their respective ancestors would have been entitled to were they then living and the share of my real and personal estate thus bequeathed to my wife to be in lieu of her dower at law and I hereby appoint my neighbor George W.

Generation: 2
2. | Hardin Richardson McGrew (1.James1) was born about 1813 in Mississippi; died in Aug 1839. Notes:
Everette McGrew instead puts his date of birth ca 1822. However, as he served in the Mexican War in 1836, he was likely the eldest born of the children of James Tate and his wife Elizabeth. Hardin enlisted on 12 Mar 1838 in Robertston County as a private under Captain N. Doyle, Volunteer Rangers. He was discharged 10 Jun 1839. William and Flood McGrew, his brothers, also enlisted and were discharged at the same time.
Robert Lee McGrew of Pearland, TX also indicated that James Tate McGrew and his wife Elizabeth had a son named Hardin R. McGrew, but he is not mentioned in James Tate McGrew's will. The book THE SOUTHERN McGREWS GREW indicates he died before his father drew up his will.
Veteren of the Mexican War of 1836, paid a land grant in Robertson Co, TX for 1476 acres. He apparently died around 1839/1840, before his father's will was made, but he was on the 1840 tax list. He left his estate to his mother, Elizabeth, and she and two sons sold the headright to Reuban Anderson on 20 May 1850 for $20,000. (From THE SOUTHERN McGREWS GREW)

4. | George Washington McGrew (1.James1) was born about 1820 in Mississippi; died about 1839 in County of Robertson, Republic of Texas. Notes:
Served in the Texas Army during the revolution of 1836. Also a Texas Ranger, and said to have been killed during an attempt to save 12 year Cynthia Ann Parker when she was captured by the Comanches.
Per the book THE SOUTHERN McGREWS GREW he joined the Robertson Co Rangers to help protect against the Indians. The Indians attacked Ft. Marlin on January 16, 1839 and G. W. along with his brothers, Wm A and a brother in law David Armstrong Barton, went to help drive the Indians away. Jackson Powers had his horse shot from under him, so G.W. took him up behind him on his little pony. Powers brother saw this and came and took his brother up with him on a larger horse. The Indians caught up with G.W., the Powers, and David Barton, and killed G.W. and Barton. The Powers got away. G.W. and Elizabeth had a daughter born after his death. The widowed Elizabeth next married James B. Ware. She later married John Lynd. She probably died shortly after 1850, as Wm. Moss was guardian of her children.
Wynema McGrew writes that George W. McGrew posthumously received Bounty Warrant 161 for 320 acres on 16 Dec 1846 for service from 29 Apr to 29 July 1839. In October1848, 320 acres in Freestone County were presented to him (or presumably his heirs as he died in 1839).

6. | James Thomas McGrew (1.James1) was born about 1824 in Mississippi; died on 21 Dec 1857 in Robertson County, Texas. Notes:
The the LDS Ancestral File, ver 4.15 incorrectly shows Thomas as a son of Alexander and Elizabeth (Blackburn) McGrew. However, according to McGrew researcher Wynema McGrew of Hattiesburg, Mississippi, he is actually the son of James Tate McGrew (Alexander's brother) and his wife Elizabeth. Per THE SOUTHERN McGREWS GREW he appeared before the Board of Land Commissioners for Robertson County, Texas in 1847 for 320 acres. He was authorized to locate and survey out any of the vacant land in the Republic. On the 1850 census, Alfred Hicks, a laborer, was living with them. The same Alfred Hicks lived with his brother's--John Flood McGrew--family in 1860.

7. | Samantha Ann McGrew (1.James1) was born about 1825 in Mississippi; died before 5 May 1845. Notes:
According to the LDS ancestral file, ver 4.15, Samantha McGrew is the daughter of Alexander and Elizabeth (Blackburn) McGrew. However, according to McGrew researcher Wynema McGrew of Hattiesburg, Mississippi, she is actually the daughter of Alexander's brother, James Tate McGrew by Elizabeth Patterson. Several years after her first husband was killed (along with one of her brothers) as they fought Indians at Morgan's Point, Samantha married her husband's brother David A. Barton, Jr. and had two children. (THE SOUTHERN McGREWS GREW)

Mary Jane married John P. Gibson Maddox, and they petitioned for control of her mother's estate, since the land was originally Washington's (her father's), but the outcome is unknown. She and her husband helped raise the children of Mary June McGrew and Ben Maddox, after their deaths.

Based on both the number of years Allen and Mollie were married (14) and the fact that she states she is the mother of five living children (presumably Gertie, Flood, Mattie, Virginia and Alphonso), it would appear that Clabie is Allen's son from a previous marriage. Additionally, in 1910, she is shown of the mother of six living children, presumably Gertie, Flood, Mattie, Virginia, Alfonso and Wilbur.
Allen married Mattie Anderson on 22 Dec 1879 in Robertson County, Texas. Mattie was born before 1854; died after 1885. [Group Sheet] [Family Chart]

16. | Elizabeth Townsend "Bettie" McGrew (6.James2, 1.James1) was born on 11 Mar 1857 in Limestone County, Texas; died on 4 Aug 1950 in Dallas, Dallas County, Texas; was buried in Hubbard Cemetery, Hubbard, Hill County, Texas. 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).
Elizabeth married J. Frank Rawls on 21 Dec 1871 in Texas. J. was born on 25 Feb 1852; died on 15 Oct 1921 in Texas. [Group Sheet] [Family Chart]

17. | Elizabeth Jane Barton (7.Samantha2, 1.James1) was born about 1843 in County of Robertson, Republic of Texas; and died. Notes:
Wynema McGrew states that a first cousin of Elizabeth's reported she was returned to Tennessee to be raised by her paternal grandparents. However, if this is true, it was not for long. On 5 May 1845, Elizabeth McGrew, her maternal grandmother, applied to the Robertson County Probate Court for guardianship of Elizabeth Jane Barton, minor, heir of David A. Barton and Samatha Barton, both deceased. Elizabeth was granted this guardianship, and she was living with her grandmother as of 1850.
Wynema indicated that Elizabeth Jane married Cleve R. Walters or Waters in Limestone County, Texas prior to 1860 where they can be found on that census. He was a farmer with real and personal property of $3,500 each. They were not found on the 1870 or 1880 censuses of Texas.

18. | Samantha Ann Maddox (9.Mary2, 1.James1) was born on 2 Nov 1851 in Robertson County, Texas; and died. Notes:

|
19. | Sarah Mildred Margaret Maddox (9.Mary2, 1.James1) was born on 29 Dec 1853 in Robertson County, Texas; died on 11 Apr 1885 in Fannin, Goliad County, Texas. Notes:
At the time of the 1870 federal census, 16 year old Sarah was living in the home of J O Maddox, age 46, and born in Georgia. Other members of that household were Myra, 26 F W born in Mississippi, Pinkney 5 F, Thomas 3 M, and Joseph 2 M. The younger household members were born in Texas, as was Sarah. As Sarah was the last member listed in the household (as opposed to be listed chronologically with the other minors in the home) it appears that she was likely not a child of J. P. Maddox, but likely related in some other fashion as they shared the same last name.
The following information is from a family group sheet done by Ms. Bernice Jump on the 14 of Jan 1995:
Obituary of Sarah Cassels, Victoria Advocate, April 25, 1885.
Mrs. Sarah Cassels, wife of Mr. J.W.Cassels, died on Saturday April 11, 1885 at her home on Perdido, this county, of pneumonia. The relatives have our sincere sympathy in their sore affliction.
Sarah was known to her family and friends as Sade. Information was taken from papers that Juanita Johnson had worked on. She got her information from Bible records, census 1850, legal records and other research.
