Seeking information on Joseph ROFF and his wife Elizabeth Duvall Castlebury
Crousen ROFF. They resided in two locations in Wilbarger Co. in about 1897,
part in "White Rose" and part in "Beaver Creek" near his wifes son from her
second marriage John CROUSEN. Joseph died in Dec 1897, leaving a wife and one
married daughter Kate (Married Charles D. LEWIS). I am unsure if he died in
wilbarger co. or in Roff Ok, where his nephews lived. Previously they had
farmed in Throckmorton County.. and were married in Cooke COunty in about 1876.
He was a brother to Major Chales Roff of Cooke and Grayson Counties. I am
interested in anything anyone has regarding those names or the places.

MOSS/RISA - Looking for any information on Clyde MOSS b ca 1910 possibly in
Vernon, Wilbarger, TX. Mother may be Nola RIZA. At the age of 5 Clyde was sent
from Vernon by train to Dallas - specifically to the Baptist orphan home where
he stayed until age 16. I cannot substantiate that MOSS is correct and can find
no RIZA in the Vernon area. Other leads have suggested WRIGHT as being part of
the family - 1910 census in Vernon lists Nolia G. WRIGHT, dau of John and
marriage records have Nola WRIGHT marrying S. DAVENPORT in Dec 1915. I have
been to Vernon and searched marriage and death records in the courthouse. Any
help will be greatly appreciated.

Can someone tell me if there is a Church of Christ church in Vernon TX that has
been around since 1890 or earlier? My great-grandfather, Moses Nimrod Sevier,
was a Church of Christ minister. He married his 3rd wife (not my
great-grandmother) in Vernon in 1890. They were still there in 1891 when their
1st child was born. I am assuming he had a church in Vernon. Thanks!
