    Either in Polk co or Tyler Co Texas. Towns in or around Big Sandy, Warren, Woodville, Kirby Lumber Co was a big timber co. In that area. The two county seats were Livingston, and Woodville Texas. I have searched for years =0 results.

    Would you please let me know where you found Mahaly's last name to be Hawkins? As near as I can tell, they had three children, Eugenia, James and John. I am descended from James although he also sometimes went by the name of John. Very confusing.
