Bio and Links
Bio Photo Researching my family's history continues to be a most challenging and rewarding experience. At the beginning, our family knew nothing of our ancestors beyond my great grandfather. We had no idea of who they were, where they began, their occupations, family sizes, nothing.

Thanks to the help of many family members and friends, both old and new, the technology of the Internet, The San Antonio Genealogical Society, and the vast data base of Ancestry.com, a wealth of information has been learned about our beginnings. Thus far, over 2000 names have been added to the family tree. The research is still in progress, with new data constantly being added.

To all those who have assisted in this effort, I am most grateful.

RE: Memorial #28294189 Lorenz
Not a problem...I don't have any problem with you keeping the memorial at all. I just thought if you weren't related I'd like to keep him and his wife together. I think I told you in the request, but if not, she is my 3rd cousin 1X removed so really don't know much about her.

RE: John Salmon Mangum

Hi James,
My e-mail is lorhar@sbcglobal.net... I have found a lot of my husbands ancestors in the area... Geneology is a hobby for me and, I am trying to put albums together of my grown children's ancestors.. They don't seem to be very interested in dates, names & facts.. But, they like the stories.. I would like to know that the stories I leave behind are true, though.
On the story of John Salmon Mangum is that him & his son were hauling a wagon of something to sell. I think it was salt.. They were camping for the night on the Frio River.. When they saw a gang of indians riding up to them.. John S. told his son to hide under some brush & leaves.. John S. was killed by them.. But, he saved his son's life. That son was Nathaniel Thomas Mangum.. Who later married Josephine Brummitt and later had my husbands grandmother... So, not only did he save his son's life but, all the babies that were born afterward's.... including my 5 grown children, my 6 grandchildren &, my 2 gr. grandchildren...And, all the other families...

John Salmon Mangum

Hi James,
I have on the 1860 census in Pleasanton, Atascosa Co.,Texas.. The names are mostly initials... I have got most of my info from ancestry.com.. and the internet.

J.S. Mangum (John Salmon Mangum)
age 33
B. abt 1827
Birthplace... Alabama
Home in 1860...Atascosa, Texas
Gender...Male
Post Office... Pleasanton

The names listed are:
J.S. Mangum....age 33(John Salmon Mangum)
Polly Mangum...age 33 (Mary Margaret) "Polly"
N.T. Mangum....age 14 (Nathaniel Thomas) my husbands gr. grandfather
W.S....age 13 (William Zachariah)
Ger N. Mangum...age 13 (George Marion Mangum)
N.P.Mangum....age 10 (Nancy P. Mangum)

Clementine Mangum...age 2/12 mths

All of the first 5 children were born in Mississippi .. I have 2 that were not on the 1860 census..Louisa 1851 & Samuel 1853 must have died before 1860.
Starting with Mary Francis Mangum all of them were born in Texas...

K.E. Mangum 1862
Joseph Mangum 1864
Susan A Mangum 1864
