SURNAMES: GORDON/ WEEKS
QRYTEXT: I am trying to find a marriage license for my grandparents, JOHN MORGAN GORDON and JOSIE KATE WEEKS. They were married May 30 or 31, 1914 in Iredell, Bosque County, TX. A newspaper article written at the time of their 50-th anniversary stated that they went to Big Sandy after the marriage to live. There is no record of this marriage in Bosque County. It is possible that John was living in Upshur County prior to the marriage and secured the license there. Is there someone who could check the marriage records for me?

QRYTEXT: John Taylor Whittiker born in Mt. Vernon, Tx in 1848 and Margaret Whittiker Price Cox born in Mt. Vernon in 1844. John sold land in 1890 an heir of William Whitaker. His wife, Martha, also signed as seller. It was reported to us that his parents died young and they never knew their parents but the selling of the land would indicate a relationship with the Whitakers of Nacadoches as that was their land he sold. Can anyone help us with our research of this land or of a John and Margaret?

QRYTEXT: I am looking for any information on David Wesley MINGS and wife Lavina Ann PHILLIPS who were living in Upshur County in the 1850's. I am most interested in finding out the names of their parents. I believe David's parents were Jessie MINGS and Sarah RYALS and I believe they were from Alabama. I do not know the names of Lavina, but I believe she was also born in Alabama. I am wondering if the name of Mings Chapel in Upshur county could have come from this family?
