Individual Details
Louisa Anna Craig
(20 Nov 1841 - 7 Oct 1887)
"Louisa (Aunt "Lou") married a Mr. Gore. Several of her children used to write to us. In recent years, we've lost sight of them too." Betty Hughes
From research by Norma Walker Anderson -
In a volume of the East Texas Family Records, Spring 1987, Vol. 11 #1 it shows the following:
FRIENDSHIP METHODIST CHURCH 1885
The church was located in the present day New Hope Community. The cemetery is still maintained by Mr. & Mrs. Jim G. Stuart, 1927 Montrose Dr., Tyler, Texas.
Among the names listed were:
JANE COLVIN
L. A. Gore (my Louisa Anna Craig Gore)
M. P. Gore (my grandmother Mollie P. Gore daughter of Louisa Craig Gore)
J. C. ADAIR
DORA COLVIN
Ida Gore
W. L. ADAIR
This was in Henderson Co. I believe. These have to be members of the church as my Mollie P. Gore Walker is buried in California, not Texas. This would be a good place to start looking for the Adairs and Colvins.
