John or James?
As a child I saw the Roots and Branches of Puckett family tree book, which said our part of Puckett family is french, Pouquet, and the Brazzell family was also in this book. My dad died young and I do not know what happened to this book, nor do I know much about my dad's family. His father was John Turner Puckett married to Emily Brazzell, lived in Flat, Texas near Gatesville. He had two brothers in Gatesville, Ollie (Oliver) and I don't know the other name. John Turner's father owned land near Brownwood, TX. I just want to know his name and wife's name, and any other info. Thanks. Linda Puckett Bertram
(Research):Where abouts in the Dallas Texas Area - Collin County - Tarrant County? Have you done a search on the 1920 Census? I am interested because not only do I have Puckett family roaming around that area, I have lost a bunch of my "Brown"s there too. The Puckett and Brown connection came to Collin/Dallas/Tarrant/Rockwall County areas just as fast they could gather their belongings and move after the civil war. The Pucketts came from Union Parish, Louisiana and the Browns from somewhere maybe Tennessee. Please contact me at jlddn@hal-pc.org

3. | Mary Elizabeth WILKERSON was born on 5 Jan 1848 in , , Mississippi, USA; died on 20 Feb 1934 in Grosvenor, Brown, Texas, USA; was buried on 21 Feb 1934 in Grosvenor, Brown, Texas, USA. Other Events:
- Name: Mollie Pollock
- Residence: 1873, , Bienville, Louisiana, USA
- Pension: 24 Nov 1922, Grosvenor, Brown, Texas, USA; Widow's
- Census: 1930, , Brown, Texas, USA; ED 21, pg 15A
- death certificate: 21 Feb 1934; Mr E Puckett of Gouldbusk
Notes:
Noel's death certificate says his mother was Mary Elizabeth Wilson. Mary's death certificate says her father's name was Wilkerson. Nettie's death certificate simply says Mollie. I didn't find anything that says Pollock. It's possible that she was previously married. There is a C Wilkerson in Bienville Parish in 1870 who has a daughter named Mary E, born circa 1854, AL.
At the end of 1922, she claimed to be 75, making her born in '47 unless she was anticipating her next birthday, making it '48. On census records, she is 29, 51, 62, 72 and 82. Her death certificate gives 1859 but I believe 1848 is probably correct.

We assume that John and family were in Bienville Parish in 1860 but there is no census record for Bienville, it was either lost or destroyed. Since we can't find him elsewhere, it's a fair assumption.
