    ...Reuben had an old green leather trunk he carried, back of his saddle all during the Civil War. One time at some crisis he asked Martha to hide it because it was full of gold coins. No one has ever found it but Dorothy had the green trunk given to her plus other items from the Walker side...

    Reuben married Mary F RIGBY about 1848 in , , Mississippi, USA. Mary (daughter of Russell Thomas RIGBY and Lydia SULLIVAN) was born in 1830 in , Darlington, South Carolina, USA; died before Jul 1870 in , , Texas, USA; was buried in Kosse, Limestone, Texas, USA. [Group Sheet] [Family Chart]


  2. 9.  Mary F RIGBY was born in 1830 in , Darlington, South Carolina, USA (daughter of Russell Thomas RIGBY and Lydia SULLIVAN); died before Jul 1870 in , , Texas, USA; was buried in Kosse, Limestone, Texas, USA.

    Notes:

    This family is difficult to trace because of the repetitive naming and the fact that so many different families resided together. Ive seen a lot of sources that list 7 children for Russell and Lydia - William B, Emily Ann, Mary F, Sidney F, John Owen, Martha, and Melissa Lydia - and 8 children for Russell and Mary - Joseph A, Margaret, Russell, Charles, Louvinia, Stephen, Benjamin, and Archie. However, I have found no sources online that prove any of these children. I've also found sources that show most of these children to be nieces and nephews, again I find no sources that prove any parentage. If we go strictly with the 1850 and 1860 census records, assuming that all the children are with the correct parents, we find John O, Robert E, Sidney, Melissa, and Stephen who are all older than the supposed marriage date for Mary, and Joseph, Charles, Margaret and Miranda who would be Mary's children. It's possible that our Mary Rigby O'Neal is also a daughter of Bryant.
