Note: 1880 census of Grayson Co.,TX Note: Cemetary Borden CO TX Note from researcher: Secondly, I am stumped with where to put my gg-grandfather (James A Petty) into the Petty line and would appreciate your insight. I try to use the census files on Ancesty.com, which has helped, but I am stuck. My g-grandmother was Mary (Mollie) M Petty, b Sept 1870 in Texas. I believe she is the same Mary M Petty, daughter of the Rev James A(braham) Petty and Mary Elizabeth Loudder. I do have a Texas Death Certificate for a Mollie M Petty, dau of Jas A Petty and M E Louder, which I ordered and received last week when I was in Texas. She died 11 July 1917, in Crosby Co., Texas. She was married to Lorenzo Matthew Reed. Her death date matched the death date in my grandmother’s Bible. Her birth date, according to the death certificate, was 22 Sept 1869, but I believe it’s really 1870 as she’s not on the 1870 census. I have found several websites that have information on Mary Elizabeth Loudder and her parents John Loudder and Mary Elizabeth Petty (dau of James V Petty b abt 1800 TN). But no one seems to know anything about James A Petty, b 1842 AL who married Mary Elizabeth Loudder in Texas. I think James A Petty is descended from John James Petty, b abt 1812 South Carolina and Nancy Unknown. I have several bits of census information but I went backwards from 1900, so my logic may not be correct. probable match 1850 - Lafayette Co., MS
