gto250us Posted October 7, 2005 Share Posted October 7, 2005 Ina Young Nash's mother was Ann E. Compton. She was first married to Warren H. Madadue, on 28 Sep 1844 in Brazoria Co. TX. Warren died in early 1850, probate filed 9 Mar 1850. She had a daughter Leila Manadue. She then married Overton Young sometime before 1860. Leila Manadue, step-sister of Ina, married George E. Vallade in Harris Co. on 28 Sep 1871Do you all give up or do you want more? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
brucesw Posted October 8, 2005 Share Posted October 8, 2005 Do you all give up or do you want more? I am somewhat hesitant to post this, but I asked the question half-jokingly, not expecting anyone to reply (ducks behind brick wall quickly). I have the three references from Creighton's Narrative History of Brazoria Co. but I presume you already have them since you know so much about this family. Must be one of your lines? I spent 15 years working on mine but didn't have much to do in Brazoria Co. The Nash's were well connected; I suppose you don't get the former governor of Texas coming around to rent your place by placing an ad in the Greensheet. Were the Wright's the ones who owned the Chevy-Olds dealerships in West Columbia, Freeport and Angleton? If so, my dad bought several Olds from them. Thanks for all the info.

Sorry, I really do not know mauch about the Nashs or Brazoria county. Genealogy is a hobby of mine. I was following the thread and decided to see what I could dig up over the coarse of a couple of hours. It was rather interesting. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
