278	Candace correct pronunciation is Can-da'-ce. She was called Da'-cy. Candace married 3 times. She m.(1) abt. 1835, in Matagorda or Fayette Co. (then the Municipality of Mina) a Mr. Underwood who was dead by late March 1836 when she went on the Runaway Scrape with her father's family and their neighbors, as she was then a young widow named Underwood. Candace and Mr. Underwood had no children. Candace married (2) by Contract or Bond abt. 1836, Plum Grove, Leander Frederic Trent Cottle, b. 1786 Vermont; d. 8-8-1845 Black Jack Springs. He is buried in another area of Pin Oak Cemetery. Candace married (3) on 5-13-1846, Obadiah Fitzgerald b. 1819 Virginia; d. 01 Feb 1896. Candace and Lee Cottle had 4 children: Ellender (Ellen) Azubah b.18 May 1837 Henry b. 27 Sep 1839 Leander Jr. b. 1841 Cordelia b. 12 Oct 1844 Candace and Obadiah had three children: William 'Billy' David - 13 Sep 1857 Nancy Ann - Abt 1847 Amanda Jane - 13 Oct 1848 Notes for Candace (Candacy) Ann Criswell: Candace correct pronunciation is Can-da'-ce. She was called Da'-cy and Aunt Da'-cy hence the y on the tombstone: Candacy. Her name on the tombstone is Candacy Fitzgerald in the Pin Oak Cemetery. Her stone and O.T.'s are on the far east side. Candace married 3 times. She m.(1) abt. 1835, in Matagorda or Fayette Co. (then the Municipality of Mina) a Mr. Underwood who was dead by late March 1836 when she went on the Runaway Scrape with her father's family and their neighbors, as she was then a young widow named Underwood. I am inclined to think that Candace and Mr. Underwood were married in Fayette Co. because I know there were at least two Underwood men there, one of whom was the first husband of my great-grandmother, Sarah Ann Ellis, who came to Texas from Wilcox Co., Ala., about 1838 with her husband James S. Underwood. He died l839 in Fayette Co., and in 1841 she married (2) my great-grandfather Wm. Marshall Robinson, formerly of Henry Co., Ky. I think it highly probable that Candace married James Underwood's brother, or other kin. Sarah and Candace lived as neighbors in the Black Jack area from the early 1840s until 1900 when they both died. Candace and Mr. Underwood had no children. Fayette County was created from Bastrop (formerly Mina) and Colorado Counties, all a part of Austin's Colony, by the Republic of Texas Dec. 1837, and organized Jan. 1, 1838. While Texas was under Mexican rule, all marriage ceremonies had to be performed by a Catholic priest. If no priest lived nearby, it was customary to be married by Contract or Bond. The boy and the girl signed this legal and binding contract, as well as both of her parents. In May 1836 this procedure, no doubt, was still in effect. Candace married (2) by Contract or Bond abt. 1836, Plum Grove, in what is now Fayette Co., Texas, Leander Frederic Trent Cottle, b. 1786 Vermont; d. 8-8-1845 Black Jack Springs. He is thought to be buried on one side of Candace in an unmarked grave in the Black Jack [now Pin Oak] Cemetery. 0n 5-13-1846 Candace end Obadiah Fitzgerald who had recently married asked to be made joint Administrators of Lee's Estate. Their $1200 Bond was dated 5-25-1846. Sureties were James S. Mayfield (Sec. of State in President Lamar's Cabinet) and James Robinson. On 1-31-1848 Candace and Obadiah asked that James Robinson be appointed Guardian of the 4 minor Cottle children. Obadiah and Wm. Primm were Sureties on the $2000 Bond. J. S. Black, S. P. Birt and James Moore were early teachers in the Black Jack Springs and Pin Oak community church-house school. My grandma, Susan Prentiss Robinson (b. 1844 Fayette Co;, niece of James), went to school there with all 7 of Candace's children. Candace and Lee Cottle had 4 children. One was Ellender (Ellen) Azubah Cottle, born 5-18-1837 near Lyons Station (later Lyonsville, then Schulenburg), Fayette Co., Texas; died 5-8-1923 San Angelo, Texas, and is buried there; married 2-1-1855 Black Jack Springs, Texas, William (Will) Shank, C.S.A., born 9-17-1833 in Germany, as were both of his parents; died about 1910 Abilene, Texas, and is buried there. Some of the Black Jack springs were located on her property and some on J. C. C. Smith's land. Black Jack Springs Cemetery is located at the end of County Road 373 and is about 0.6 mile southwest of the FM-609 and FM-2237 intersection in SW Fayette Co., TX. According to Joe Cole the first burials were 2 unknown soldiers who were returning from the Battle of Salado which occured 18 Sept 1842. They died of measles at Bledsoe's house. "Memories of By-Gone Days" by Rosa Berry Cole pg 22-23 After San Jacinto, Candace married Lee Cottle. While at Lucinda Berry's house he was playing a fiddle and he was setting on the end of a bench, she noticed he kept inching down toward her. When he got close to her, he said "Candacy, here is my heart and hand. Will you be my wife?" He had never missed a note on his fiddle. She said, "No, I am bespoke."	Criswell, Mary Candice Ann (I5241)

This is the finest Hardee battle flag (blue field with white ellipse) in existence. In 1863, the troops of Cleburne's Division had resisted instructions to replace their blue Hardee flags with the standard red Confederate battle flag. The division, however, had won such an outstanding reputation as fighters that army commanders allowed them to retain their distinctive flags for the rest of the war -- the only command in the Army of Tennessee so honored. In November of 1863, the 17th and 18th Texas received its new flannel Hardee flag inscribed with the battle honors of the previous campaigns: "Arkansas Post," "Chickamauga," "Tunnel Hill," and "Ringgold Gap." During the Atlanta Campaign, Granbury's Texas Brigade (including the 17th and 18th Texas) participated in some of the hardest fighting of the war. On July 22, 1864 at the Battle of Atlanta, while fighting in the Confederate front lines, the 17th and 18 Texas became cut-off, and nearly surrounded, forcing the surrender of a large number of its men. After a brief hand-to-hand struggle, the battle flag was taken by General William T. Clark. After the war, veterans of the 17th and 18th Texas made considerable efforts to locate the flag, which in 1914 was returned to Texas by Gen. Clark's widow. W. L.

I think he may be buried in the same lot as his daughter Mary Ellen Coates in Waco. No proof, but think there is an unmarked grave there that at one time had a Confederate metal marker (no name) on it. Found Frank Crow on the 1920 Waco census, where it says he was a laundry owner. So he probably owned the laundry where Martha worked. Per a descendant of Willie Wilkes, a daughter of Willie Wilkes stated that she remembered Wm. L. Carter, although she was only 6 at the time. Said he had red hair and a long red beard, that his neck was crooked from a Civil War wound in the neck, that he sat on the porch cocked back in a chair, that he walked along the RR tracks and was hit by a train at some point.

Notes on the 18th Texas Calvary: EIGHTEENTH TEXAS CAVALRY.The Eighteenth Texas Cavalry, also known as Darnell's Cavalry Regiment, was organized at Dallas, Texas, on March 15, 1862. The regiment initially had ten companies lettered A to K comprising men from the counties of Bastrop, Bell, Dallas, Denton, Ellis, Harris, Henderson, Johnson, Travis, and Williamson. Commanding the regiment was Col. Nicholas H. Darnell with field officers Lt. Col. John T. Coit, Maj. Charles C. Morgan, and Maj. William A. Ryan. The regiment was first assigned to duty in the Indian Territory where it became involved in a dispute with that area's commanding officer Gen. Albert Pike. The dispute stemmed from the regiment moving its camp without notifying General Pike. Soon after, the regiment transferred to Arkansas Post, Arkansas, and General Paul O. Hébert recommended dismounting the regiment in July 1862. The regiment fought in the battle of Arkansas Post that started on January 4, 1863, and was captured by Union forces at the conclusion of fighting on January 11. Company H was assigned to the prison camp in Little Rock at the time of the capture. Orville A. Oatman of the Eighteenth Orville A. Oatman of the Eighteenth Cavalry (dismounted).

From May 1863 to war's end the Eighteenth Texas Cavalry served in the Army of Tennessee. By July 1863 the Eighteenth Texas Cavalry Regiment was consolidated with the Seventeenth Texas Cavalry Regiment. Additional consolidations throughout the war took place with the Twenty-fourth and Twenty-fifth Texas Cavalry regiments.

Its most notable battles and campaigns were Chickamauga on September 19-20, 1863; the Chattanooga siege and Chattanooga from September to November 1863; the Atlanta campaign from May to September 1864; Jonesboro from August 31 to September 1, 1864; Franklin on November 30, 1864; Nashville on December 15-16, 1864; the Carolinas campaign from February to April, 1865; and Bentonville on March 19-21, 1865. The Eighteenth Texas Cavalry suffered heavy casualties throughout the war and probably fewer than 125 enlisted men and officers were present at the regiment's surrender on April 26, 1865, at Bennett's House, Durham Station, in North Carolina. 18th Cavalry Regiment was organized at Dallas, Texas, during the spring of 1862 with men from Dallas, Denton, and Belton. The unit was soon dismounted and ordered to Arkansas where in January, 1863, it was captured at Arkansas Post. After being exchanged, it was consolidated with the 17th, 24th, and 25th Texas Cavalry Regiments (dismounted), and placed in Deshler's, J.A. Smith's, and Granbury's Brigade. This command fought with the Army of Tennessee from Chickamauga to Nashville and ended the war in North Carolina. The 18th was organized with about 900 men. The 17th/18th/24th/25th sustained 200 casualties at Chickamauga and totalled 690 men and 520 arms in December, 1863. Very few surrendered on April 26, 1865. The field officers were Colonel Nicholas H. Darnell, Lieutenant Colonel John T. Coit, and Majors Charles C. Morgan and William A. Ryan.	Carter, William Lafayette (I4904)

Candace correct pronunciation is Can-da'-ce. She was called Da'-cy.

Candace married 3 times. She m.(1) abt. 1835, in Matagorda or Fayette Co. (then the Municipality of Mina) a Mr. Underwood who was dead by late March 1836 when she went on the Runaway Scrape with her father's family and their neighbors, as she was then a young widow named Underwood. Candace and Mr. Underwood had no children.

Candace married (2) by Contract or Bond abt. 1836, Plum Grove, Leander Frederic Trent Cottle, b. 1786 Vermont; d. 8-8-1845 Black Jack Springs. He is buried in another area of Pin Oak Cemetery.

Candace married (3) on 5-13-1846, Obadiah Fitzgerald b. 1819 Virginia; d. 01 Feb 1896.

Candace and Lee Cottle had 4 children:

Ellender (Ellen) Azubah b.18 May 1837
Henry b. 27 Sep 1839
Leander Jr. b. 1841
Cordelia b. 12 Oct 1844

Candace and Obadiah had three children:

William 'Billy' David - 13 Sep 1857
Nancy Ann - Abt 1847
Amanda Jane - 13 Oct 1848

Notes for Candace (Candacy) Ann Criswell:

Candace correct pronunciation is Can-da'-ce. She was called Da'-cy and Aunt Da'-cy hence the y on the tombstone: Candacy.

Her name on the tombstone is Candacy Fitzgerald in the Pin Oak Cemetery. Her stone and O.T.'s are on the far east side.

Candace married 3 times. She m.(1) abt. 1835, in Matagorda or Fayette Co. (then the Municipality of Mina) a Mr. Underwood who was dead by late March 1836 when she went on the Runaway Scrape with her father's family and their neighbors, as she was then a young widow named Underwood. I am inclined to think that Candace and Mr. Underwood were married in Fayette Co. because I know there were at least two Underwood men there, one of whom was the first husband of my great-grandmother, Sarah Ann Ellis, who came to Texas from Wilcox Co., Ala., about 1838 with her husband James S. Underwood. He died l839 in Fayette Co., and in 1841 she married (2) my great-grandfather Wm. Marshall Robinson, formerly of Henry Co., Ky. I think it highly probable that Candace married James Underwood's brother, or other kin. Sarah and Candace lived as neighbors in the Black Jack area from the early 1840s until 1900 when they both died. Candace and Mr. Underwood had no children.

Fayette County was created from Bastrop (formerly Mina) and Colorado Counties, all a part of Austin's Colony, by the Republic of Texas Dec. 1837, and organized Jan. 1, 1838. While Texas was under Mexican rule, all marriage ceremonies had to be performed by a Catholic priest. If no priest lived nearby, it was customary to be married by Contract or Bond. The boy and the girl signed this legal and binding contract, as well as both of her parents. In May 1836 this procedure, no doubt, was still in effect.

Candace married (2) by Contract or Bond abt. 1836, Plum Grove, in what is now Fayette Co., Texas, Leander Frederic Trent Cottle, b. 1786 Vermont; d. 8-8-1845 Black Jack Springs. He is thought to be buried on one side of Candace in an unmarked grave in the Black Jack [now Pin Oak] Cemetery.

0n 5-13-1846 Candace end Obadiah Fitzgerald who had recently married asked to be made joint Administrators of Lee's Estate. Their $1200 Bond was dated 5-25-1846. Sureties were James S. Mayfield (Sec. of State in President Lamar's Cabinet) and James Robinson.

On 1-31-1848 Candace and Obadiah asked that James Robinson be appointed Guardian of the 4 minor Cottle children. Obadiah and Wm. Primm were Sureties on the $2000 Bond.

J. S. Black, S. P. Birt and James Moore were early teachers in the Black Jack Springs and Pin Oak community church-house school. My grandma, Susan Prentiss Robinson (b. 1844 Fayette Co;, niece of James), went to school there with all 7 of Candace's children.

Candace and Lee Cottle had 4 children. One was Ellender (Ellen) Azubah Cottle, born 5-18-1837 near Lyons Station (later Lyonsville, then Schulenburg), Fayette Co., Texas; died 5-8-1923 San Angelo, Texas, and is buried there; married 2-1-1855 Black Jack Springs, Texas, William (Will) Shank, C.S.A., born 9-17-1833 in Germany, as were both of his parents; died about 1910 Abilene, Texas, and is buried there.

Some of the Black Jack springs were located on her property and some on J. C. C. Smith's land.

Black Jack Springs Cemetery is located at the end of County Road 373 and is about 0.6 mile southwest of the FM-609 and FM-2237 intersection in SW Fayette Co., TX. According to Joe Cole the first burials were 2 unknown soldiers who were returning from the Battle of Salado which occured 18 Sept 1842. They died of measles at Bledsoe's house.

"Memories of By-Gone Days" by Rosa Berry Cole pg 22-23

After San Jacinto, Candace married Lee Cottle. While at Lucinda Berry's house he was playing a fiddle and he was setting on the end of a bench, she noticed he kept inching down toward her. When he got close to her, he said "Candacy, here is my heart and hand. Will you be my wife?" He had never missed a note on his fiddle.

She said, "No, I am bespoke."

Caroline Wells Bazemore's lineage can be traced back to the Royal Families of Europe, including Charlamagne, Alfred the Great, Duncan (King of Scots killed by MacBeth in 1040 A.D.), and other royalty of England, Scotland, France, and Germany.
Caroline Wells Bazemore's mother was Jane E. Thompson Wells whose parents were Rhoda Boykin and John R. Thompson of Screven Co. Rhoda Boykin's parents were John and Sarah Tanner Boykin. John Boykin's family came from Isle of Wight County, Virginia to an Edward Boykin who married Anne Gwaltney. Anne Gwaltney Boykin's great-great-grandfather was Thomas Warren of Surry County, Virginia from which the Screven County families can claim ties to European Royalty.

Just as I am, and waiting not, To rid my soul of one dark blot, To Thee whose blood can cleanse each spot, O Lamb of God, I come, I come.

Just as I am, Thou wiIt receive, Wilt welcome, pardon, cleanse, relieve; Because Thy promise I believe, O Lamb of God, I come, I come.

This is the finest Hardee battle flag (blue field with white ellipse) in existence. In 1863, the troops of Cleburne's Division had resisted instructions to replace their blue Hardee flags with the standard red Confederate battle flag. The division, however, had won such an outstanding reputation as fighters that army commanders allowed them to retain their distinctive flags for the rest of the war -- the only command in the Army of Tennessee so honored.
In November of 1863, the 17th and 18th Texas received its new flannel Hardee flag inscribed with the battle honors of the previous campaigns: "Arkansas Post," "Chickamauga," "Tunnel Hill," and "Ringgold Gap." During the Atlanta Campaign, Granbury's Texas Brigade (including the 17th and 18th Texas) participated in some of the hardest fighting of the war. On July 22, 1864 at the Battle of Atlanta, while fighting in the Confederate front lines, the 17th and 18 Texas became cut-off, and nearly surrounded, forcing the surrender of a large number of its men. After a brief hand-to-hand struggle, the battle flag was taken by General William T. Clark. After the war, veterans of the 17th and 18th Texas made considerable efforts to locate the flag, which in 1914 was returned to Texas by Gen. Clark's widow.

The Waco Tribune 4-6-1906
Pat Cleburne camp of Confederate Veterans: ... In calling the death roll, the
commander standing, as is their custom, the names of Dr. J.C.J. King, J.C. Robertson, W.L. Carter and J.R. Bennett were read, all of whom passed away since the regular meeting of the previous month. ...

Brief obit. appeared in Waco paper. Is he buried in Old East Waco Cem. (Greenwood?? I think he may be buried in the same lot as his daughter Mary Ellen Coates in Waco. No proof, but think there is an unmarked grave there that at one time had a Confederate metal marker (no name) on it. Found Frank Crow on the 1920 Waco census, where it says he was a laundry owner. So he probably owned the laundry where Martha worked.

Per a descendant of Willie Wilkes, a daughter of Willie Wilkes stated that she remembered Wm. L. Carter, although she was only 6 at the time. Said he had red hair and a long red beard, that his neck was crooked from a Civil War wound in the neck, that he sat on the porch cocked back in a chair, that he walked along the RR tracks and was hit by a train at some point.

Note:
According to volunteer transcriptions on findagrave.com, the Waco Day newspaper in 1889 listed 22 Confederate veterans in the cemetery, along with five Union veterans and four War of 1812 soldiers. But many of those markers are long gone.
Using Google search on Greenwood Cemetery, there are many results in the history which revealed many graves unmarked, the cemetery was poorly maintained.

Notes on the 18th Texas Calvary:
EIGHTEENTH TEXAS CAVALRY.The Eighteenth Texas Cavalry, also known as Darnell's Cavalry Regiment, was organized at Dallas, Texas, on March 15, 1862. The regiment initially had ten companies lettered A to K comprising men from the counties of Bastrop, Bell, Dallas, Denton, Ellis, Harris, Henderson, Johnson, Travis, and Williamson. Commanding the regiment was Col. Nicholas H. Darnell with field officers Lt. Col. John T. Coit, Maj. Charles C. Morgan, and Maj. William A. Ryan. The regiment was first assigned to duty in the Indian Territory where it became involved in a dispute with that area's commanding officer Gen. Albert Pike. The dispute stemmed from the regiment moving its camp without notifying General Pike. Soon after, the regiment transferred to Arkansas Post, Arkansas, and General Paul O. Hébert recommended dismounting the regiment in July 1862. The regiment fought in the battle of Arkansas Post that started on January 4, 1863, and was captured by Union forces at the conclusion of fighting on January 11. Company H was assigned to the prison camp in Little Rock at the time of the capture.

In April 1863 most of the men serving in the regiment were exchanged and returned to Confederate service. From May 1863 to war's end the Eighteenth Texas Cavalry served in the Army of Tennessee. By July 1863 the Eighteenth Texas Cavalry Regiment was consolidated with the Seventeenth Texas Cavalry Regiment. Additional consolidations throughout the war took place with the Twenty-fourth and Twenty-fifth Texas Cavalry regiments.

The Eighteenth Texas Cavalry took part in more than thirty engagements and battles while serving in the Army of Tennessee. Its most notable battles and campaigns were Chickamauga on September 19-20, 1863; the Chattanooga siege and Chattanooga from September to November 1863; the Atlanta campaign from May to September 1864; Jonesboro from August 31 to September 1, 1864; Franklin on November 30, 1864; Nashville on December 15-16, 1864; the Carolinas campaign from February to April, 1865; and Bentonville on March 19-21, 1865. The Eighteenth Texas Cavalry suffered heavy casualties throughout the war and probably fewer than 125 enlisted men and officers were present at the regiment's surrender on April 26, 1865, at Bennett's House, Durham Station, in North Carolina.

18th Cavalry Regiment was organized at Dallas, Texas, during the spring of 1862 with men from Dallas, Denton, and Belton. The unit was soon dismounted and ordered to Arkansas where in January, 1863, it was captured at Arkansas Post. After being exchanged, it was consolidated with the 17th, 24th, and 25th Texas Cavalry Regiments (dismounted), and placed in Deshler's, J.A. Smith's, and Granbury's Brigade. This command fought with the Army of Tennessee from Chickamauga to Nashville and ended the war in North Carolina. The 18th was organized with about 900 men. The 17th/18th/24th/25th sustained 200 casualties at Chickamauga and totalled 690 men and 520 arms in December, 1863. Very few surrendered on April 26, 1865. The field officers were Colonel Nicholas H. Darnell, Lieutenant Colonel John T. Coit, and Majors Charles C. Morgan and William A. Ryan.

Was told by his descendants that Buck's first wife Sarah worked hard in the farm fields. When she died in 1901, Buck left his children in the care of Sarah's family (the Kirby's). The sons worked at various farms in the area. Sarah's sisters Talona and Lucy may have been involved in rearing Sarah's children, and consequently Sarah's children were closer to the Kirby's than to the Carters.
Buck lost an ear due to cancer. He died while living in the "poor house" in Wichita Falls. He is buried at Lakeview Cemetery, Wichita Falls, TX.
