Benjamin F. Moore died in Terry County
on 25 Jan 1926. His wife, TENNESSEE ALICE FERRIS
(b. 30 Apr 1869) also died in Terry County, Texas, 10 Jan 1929.
They are buried at Brownfield Cemetery.
I would appreciate any information about Benjamin's ancestral family - his parents, Elias Moore and wife, his uncles, grandparents, etc. Thanks! Lisse Moore McBride.
We are looking into the life of our ancestor, Quintin Bone, who was one of the early settlers of Terry County. We have read an article written by Lee Brownfield which was copied from "A Collection of Family Memories" provided by Linda Brownfield Sacra of Midland, Texas. Would the Brownfield family be able to give us further information? How can we find further information in addition to what we already have, about Quintin Bone? Many Thanks. Quintin Parker
What was the location of the old Wines
Hotel in Brownfield? My grandmother died there in 1948.
The hotel no longer exists but I would like help in finding where it was
located in the town. Thanks. John Vogler, Beaverton, Oregon.
(John received a response from a
Brownfield resident who gave him the old location [downtown] of the Wines
Hotel. He will be coming through on a trip and wanted to visit the
site where his grandmother died.

George Thomas Mathes is buried in Terry Co Memorial Cem. I am looking for any info on him. He was born 9 Feb 1900 and d. 24 Oct 1960. I think he was a contractor in Terry County. His wife, Pearl R. Mathes, is also buried in Terry Co Memorial Cem. She was b. 27 Apr 1903 and d. 4 Dec 1978. I would very much like to know where they were married, if they had any children and what kind of contractor he was, etc. Thanks
Richard Figley (Fegley?) REED died in Meadow, Terry County 6 Oct 1931, according to his death certificate at family search.org. I find his grave listed as R. F. Reed in the Meadow Cemetery. But his wife who is shown as Alice MACK Reed on the death instrument, is not listed in the cemetery. Richard was the son of Pleasant Reed and Amanda HERRIN. He is a descendant of Isaac Reed, pioneer Baptist minister. I would like to find descendants and exchange information. I am a Reed descendant but of a different line. Lolene
I am looking for the gravesite of JOSALIN REINITZ. She is supposed to be buried in Meadow Cemetery in Terry County but she isn't listed online. If anyone knows how I can find if she is buried there and in what part of the cemetery, I would appreciate hearing from you so I can find her grave. Thanks for your help. Pat
Is there or was there a town named Bodice in Terry County? This name came from a Death Certificate and so might be misspelled or some variation of mispronunciation, etc. I did not find it on the list of Texas towns and cities. It was not specified as a Terry County town on the Death Certificate which named it as place of birth for Dr. Joseph Charles Midkiff, dod 1946 in Terry County. My guess would be that Terry County was not his place of birth.
Thanks for any geography lesson you
might have to offer. Marty Hiter
Marty has found a town named Bedias in Grimes
County, Texas, which appears to be where Dr. Midkiff was buried.

(15 Apr 2007: David has found out that Roy B. Collier sold his funeral home but the name did not change. It is still Brownfield Funeral Home. David contacted them and found they had Robert H. Brown's record and that he was buried in Brownfield Cemetery.) Shirley Webb - Terry Co Coordinator
Willie E. PIERCE was
killed in action south of Ligneuville near Hunnert Hill in Belgium during
World War II. He is buried at the American Cemetery in Henri-Chapelle.
I have adopted his
grave and hope to find some family members in the United States who can tell
me something
about him. I have a photo of his gravestone I can send to them.
He was in the 117th Regiment,
30th Infantry Division, Company E (or G), and was born in 1915 and
died 16 Jan 1945. He was
living in TERRY COUNTY, TEXAS, when he enlisted and was working as an
automobile
serviceman. Please e-mail me if you know anything about him.
Thanks
