FANNIE GANDY (TX) Married JAMES SAMUEL FREEMAN (1882)
We are trying to find information about FANNIE GANDY of LAVACA COUNTY, HALLETSVILLE, TEXAS who married James Samuel Freeman. (The 1880 Census said age was 32 widower, school teacher, boarder, sick with a fever, Kentucky birthplace). He married Fannie Gandy in 1882 and they had a daughter OLLIA. Then we found a marriage of JAMES SAMUEL FREEMAN to ANNA EINKAUF (Georgianna) with a son LIBY EDMUND FREEMAN (My husband's father) 1891 and a daughter LEATHA M. FREEMAN on his death date Jan 22, 1894 from pneumonia said to be caused by going in the Lavaca river to rescue packages floating as a result of a train wreck on the tressel bridge in town. We want to know what happened to FANNIE GANDY and OLLIA. Anna Einkauf Freeman remarried three additional times and had more children and step-children so little history was passed down. James Samuel was J.S. Freeman on both marriage licenses. Please let us know if you have any information on this family. Thank You Marjorie Freeman

GEORGE EDWARD PAXTON GANDY
My great great grandfather, (The Reverend James Hunter Gandy born 1825), had a brother who settled in Ireland, as he was in the army there. His name was George Gandy (born 1836). He had five children, two of whom went to New York, and then settled in Washington. Their names are George Edward Paxton Gandy, born December 9, 1873, and Charles William Douglas Gandy, born November 22, 1874. Does anyone has access to a Washington Census that might show whether these guys married and raised families? Any light you can throw my way would be appreciated. Regards,

I come off of a Castoe line out of WV but have not been able to make any
connections with any of the other lines there. My ggggrandfather ran away
from home at 14 and went to Gallipolis, Gallia Co., Ohio. For the next 13
years we don't know what happened to him other than he was an apprentist to
a blacksmith. In searching Gallia Co., I found a 1820 census that listed a
Jonathan Gandy. The reason that this is important to me is that the Gandys
are related to the Castos in WV.
Does this mean anything to anyone? I know its a long shot, but Hey, I'll
try anything to find these loose ends.
Will share info.
Seeking ancestors and information on my line of Gandys from South Jersey (
Peter Gandy). Peter Gandy married Margaret Woolford Dec. 16, 1803. I have
the ancestors of Margaret Woolford but I am stuck on Peter Gandy.

Dear Doug:
I took my notebook of letters that I have received from Gandy
descendants over the last 3 months, and found your B.H. first in a
Butler Co. Alabama Query Page. It said that his name was Brinkley
Hampton (which is what I was looking for since this name was in my
memory). The query was by Deloris Gandy. I had written her about the
Gandy page and she sent me a list of names of descendants from Brinkley,
and there is B. Hampton Gandy listed as a son of Meshack Gandy and Axcy
Whiddon. Meshack was the son of Brinkley Gandy born in 1744. Brinkley
is listed under our First Generation Gandys. The father of Brinkley
Gandy was Edward, but there were 3 or 4 Edwards and the descendants are
not sure which one was the father...so we did not list Edward as first
generation.
Melba Gandy also wrote a book on Brinkley Gandy.
I have added your information to the Brinkley descendants which I am
forwarding to you, and a Later Generation for Brinkley Hampton. Thanks
for all of your help. I have also added your email to the descendants
of Brinkley and to our Gandy Online-Newsletter. Love Mauri Gandy

I have a brick wall at the entrance of
Temperance Gandy in my genealogy search. She is a GGGgrandmother. I do not
know when she was born or died. She married Pharaoh Poppell Senior. He was
born in 1784. Possibly in South or North Carolina. Their first son, Jordan
Poppell was born in 1811 indicating that they may have been married about
1810. Their last son was born in 1824. His name was Brinkley Gandy indicating
that he was named for an uncle or a Grandparent. That is my dilema and if you
can help I would certainly appreciate it. I feel that I am finally on the
right track with the emergence of a Brinkley Gandy.It remains to fit her in
the right family.
Perhaps someone will stumble on that one little bit of information I need.
Thank you for your interest in genealogy and your help
