    "Quaid Family"
    Article on T W Quaid family, Rusk County, Texas

    "Tax records for 1846 show that T W (Thomas Walter) Quaid was a  resident of New Salem in Rusk County.  He had an original land grant of 480 acres.  T W and his wife Emily Moore came from Brownsville, Mississippi, Lafayette County.  Upon arriving in Texas, they had four children with them:  Benjamin Walter, Elihu (Eli Hugh), William Riley and Simpson.  Emily's parents came with them.  Her father was Silas.  Her mother's name has not been completely authenticated.

    "The Quaids stayed in Rusk County until 1880.  T W belonged to the same Masonic Lodge as Sam Houston.  Three Quaids and six Moores enlisted in the Confederate Army.  LDS records show that T W died of suicide in 1860.  Details of his death are not known at this time.  After his death, Emily and the children moved to Cooke County.  Elihu stayed in New Salem."

    "[The author, Glen Quaid's] line derives from Elihu.  He married Martha J Barron on July 19, 1866.  After Martha died, he married Nancy Fletcher on July 8,1874.  Nancy was born in Franklin Co, Illinois, in 1851.  She died Dec 11, 1927.  Elihu died October 9, 1907, in Johnson [Johnston] County, Oklahoma.

    "The line descends from Elihu, to John Savanna, Edgar Garland, Jack Quaid and myself. ...

    "The movie actors, Randy and Dennis Quaid, are descended from Elihu's brother, Benjamin Walter.  The line runs:  Benjamin Walter, John Thomas, William Jesse, and their father William Rudy."

    Three photos accompany the article with details of members of the family.

    The genealogy reports her place of death as Johnson County, Indian Territory, Oklahoma.  While correct at the core, most of the facts are wrong.  The name of the county is Johnston.  And in 1910 there was no Indian Territory.  Indian Territory was merged with Oklahoma Territory and parts of Texas and unassigned Indian lands to become the state of Oklahoma in 1907.  Johnston County was formed in 1907 out of part of Chickasaw Nation land.
