Notes for Esther BIBBINS


Esther Bibbins
Birth Aug 1727 in Fredericks [Frederick], Maryland
Death 16 Nov 1802 in Jefferson City, Jefferson, Tennessee
Parents  Jacob VanBibber 1706 - 1768, Mary 1710 - 1760

--  Buchanan,
http://trees.ancestry.com/tree/19363215/person/1848562840?ssrc=&ftm=1

Thge death date reported above is different, as other genealogies report 10
June 1805.  Another genealogy also has her name as Hester Van Bibber.

Hesther Van Bibber
Born about 1727
Parents Unknown
Wife of Tidence Lane
Mother of Sarah Lane, Acquilla V. Lane and Isaac Lane
Died June 20, 1805 in Jefferson County, Tennessee
--  http://www.wikitree.com/wiki/Van_Bibber-145

J J Burnett, in his Sketches about the life of Rev Tidence Lane, comments that
Tidence met and married Esther Bibbins in North Carolina. However, records
indicate that they married before Tidence moved to North Carolina, and she was
born in Frederick, Maryland, where she and Tidence were married. The genealogy
above summarizes the basic facts.  There is a discrepancy among the sources on
several of the facts.

At least one genealogy (Gilson) reports her name as Hester VanBibber.  This
genealogy also has VanBibber as the middle name of her son Tidence, though the
compiler does not provide a source for this information.

Notes for Clara Louise BIEBER


Clara married her first husband in 1937.

Arkansas Marriage Index, 1933-1939
Volume 1, Certificate #08671
Clara L Bieber
Spouse James E Hood
License Date 8 Jan 1937
Cross County

There was a second marriage record for these same two, in 1941.  Clara's name
there is Clara Louise Hood.  Did they just have a second ceremony?  It is in
the same county.

In this census, her brother Claud is enumerated next door to them.  Clara's
parents Clarence and Bessie are living on the other side of Claud.

Clara married her second husband Thelmer Dempsey in 1945.  I have not found a
divorce record for her first husband James Elvin Hood.  But he died in
California in 1993, so they must have been divorced.  She married her second
husband in the St Francis County and died there in 1999.

Notes for Genendal Thelma BIGGER


The Social Security Death index does not give the place of residence at time of
death.  The Social Security Number was issued in Oklahoma "Before 1951," but
it is not certain if that is the state of birth.

Notes for Edna H BIGGS


Edna H BIGGS
Birth 24 Jun 1830 in Florida
Death 5 SEP 1863 in Kaufman, Kaufman, Texas
Parents: James A Biggs b 1801
Sopha A Biggs b 1809
Marriage to Isaac Jefferson BRISCOE 2 Jun 1853 Kaufman Co., TX
-- Bolt-Briscoe,
http://trees.ancestry.com/tree/24453098/person/1521769812?ssrc=&ftm=1

Note the place of death is reported in this genealogy as Kaufman County,
instead of Parker County, Texas.  This source gives a birth date and place,
but does not tell where they got that information.  But the two children John
Franklin and Robert Winfield are reported as born in Parker County in 1860 and
1961 respectively.  So it would seem she died in Parker County.  I have not
found burial information.

Several genealogies have the death occurring in Kaufman, but none give any
place of burial or explain the discrepancy with dates and place of birth of
the two sons.  Holden reports the family moved to Parker County in 1857,
before the birth of either John of Robert.  This seems to indicate that Edna
died in Parker.  The marriage of Isaac to Mary Jane Osborne (Kincaide)
occurred too late for her to be the mother of either of the two boys.
