I AM PROBABLY WRONG ON THE FRENCHY AND TENNIE GRAMHAM HOWEVER I THOUGH IT INTERESTING THAT GRAHAMS MOTHER WAS A COLIER...PRETTY CLOSE TO COLAR/CALAR...

ANYWAY HERE IS SOMETHING I FOUND THAT MAY ELIMNATE THIS FAMILY ...

Parents of French Graham were Edward C Graham and Rachel Colier. I'm guessing Rachel was French or Cajun because of the names of some of their children: Baronde Kolbe, Levaga, Piner, Rejoiner an Commelier, Eutaw and Frenchy of course. I show that French had three children with Sally McGuire and seven with his second wife, Tennie (Tennessee) Hodges Graham. Sally's three children were Nellie, Estella and Gib. Both Nellie and Gib married Youngs. Estella Graham married William F Cardwell in Red River County Tx. Estella and William F were my husband's great-grandparents.

I found French (Frank G) with his mother Rachel Graham on the Bienville Parish census, Louisiana, 1880. By 1900 he was married to Tennessee, living in Red River County, Tx with children Estell 16, Nellie 13, Gibson 11, Gilbert 11, Brussie 7, Carlie 5, Tate 3, Orie 9 months. The census indicates that only Orie was born in Texas, so they had not been there long. If Gibson was Sally McGuire's son and Gilbert was Tennessee's son, and Gib was born in June 1888 and Gilbert was born in Apr of 1889 as the census indicates, French would have to have married again inside a month after Sally died. There were McGuires in Red River County also who had a Cardwell living with them who was William F Cardwell's brother. The Grahams in large part ended up in Hughes and Okfuskee County Oklahoma. French, Tennessee (who died in 1912), Estella, William F Cardwell, James Minor Cardwell (my husband's grandfather) and several other family members are buried in Weleetka, Okla in Okfuskee County

One would think that "TINY PINE" OR VARIATION THEREOF WOULD BE EITHER INDIAN OR CAJUN


I HAVE READ SO MUCH TEXT THAT I AM GETTING CONFUSED..ANYWAY I HAVE RESEARCHED ALL I COULD AND I HAVE HIT THE PROVERBIAL BRICKWALL


GOOD LUCK

CONNIE
