BLYTHE, CAREY, CASPARY, CLINE, EDWARDS, ENGLES, ESTES, HALL, HARRISON, LOHMAN, LOHMANN, MULKEY, SHANKS, SMALLEY, STEVENSON, STRAWN, WALTHALL posted by John Lohman on Tuesday, September 9, 1997

I am researching the descendants and ancestors of Francis Marion BLYTHE, my maternal great-grandfather. Family tradition suggests that this Blythe line came from Virginia. I would appreciate any guidance and help. This is Blythe posting version 9/9/97. Washington County, Texas, 1860 Census information and a family Bible indicate that Francis M. was born in Tennessee on 14 May 1821 and married Virginia Lockhart HARRISON in Pulaski County, Arkansas on 12 April 1842. Virginia L. was born in Alabama May 16, 1823. Francis and Virginia's children who have been identified were: Cynthia Almajoria, born in Arkansas 5 May 1843; Frances Carrol, born in Texas 5 November 1846; Mary Virginia, born in Texas 14 September 1854; [?] Harrison, born in Texas 25 April 1856; Jo Ann, born in Texas in 1857; my maternal grandmother Sadie "Sallie" Ophelia, born in Texas 15 July 1857; Martha Emilene born in Texas 15 February 1860 and died 23 May 1860. All of the above names except Martha E. were listed on the Washington County, Texas 1860 Census. A 12 year old male (b: 1848) and a 7 year old female (b: 1843) are also listed as being in the Blythe household on the 1860 Census and as having the Blythe surname. There are no corresponding entries in the Bible for the illegible given names. Virginia L. died 24 April 1861. She is probably buried in Washington County, Texas. Francis M. BLYTHE married V. E. WALTHALL 31 December 1861. They are listed on the 1870 Census. Andrew Jackson Blythe, born in Texas 24 February 1866, is listed in the family Bible but has not been identified on the 1860 Census. Andrew J. is probably a child of Francis Marion and V. E. Walthall. The 1870 Washington County, Texas, Census lists only initials for given names. Initials are hard to read. Francis M. died 12 April 1878 per the family Bible. Burial locations for the Blythe line are believed to be in Washington County. Some death dates must be verified. Sadie "Sallie" O. Blythe married Daniel Wilson CLINE in Brenham, Washington County, Texas 20 January 1885. Maud Marie Cline, one of their children, and my mother, married William H. LOHMAN in Dallas, Texas. William was born in Kansas City, MO in 1891 and baptized Wilhelm Heinrich LOHMANN in St. Peters Deutsch Evangeliche Kirche, Kansas City, MO in 1895. Other descendant surnames acquired by marriage are: J. B. SMALLEY married Jo Ann Blythe; EDWARDS to Mary Virginia Blythe. These surnames were acquired by marriage into the Cline / Lohman line. STEVENSON, SHANKS, HALL, ENGLES, STRAWN, MULKEY, CASPARY, ESTES, CAREY. Other postings relating to this Blythe line have been made using the surnames LOHMANN and CLINE.

Harriet Caroline BAKER, b. 10 Jan 1851 in Georgia, daughter of Dempsey BAKER and Martha NORSWORTHY, married Fletcher MENEFEE in Van Zandt County, on 4 Feb 1870. Harriet and Fletcher left for another part of Texas and were never heard from again. My great grandmother, Mary Eveline BAKER EASLEY, sister to Harriet, mourned all her life the loss of her sister. Would appreciate any clues to where she settled.
