Email from Thomas L. Waldrop, 6 Apr 2006 - A person from Texas contacted me concerning the Waldrops in Texas. My Gx3 grandfather's brother, Martin, is alleged to have moved west from TN somehow, even though he is believed to have lived on the Waldrop Homestead in Giles Co, TN, from 1838 till who knows when. There is no known burial place for him or his wife. The [his]two brothers are there [Giles Co.]in the Waldrop Cemetery. Some names the contact gave me fit with his descendents. But he never kept in contact and I lost his e-mail.

The two grandsons in Martin's house in 1880 are probably children of his daughter Samantha and his daughter Margaret or Josephine. Samantha was the only child out of the house in 1870. John Bearden would have been born in 1868. Margaret and Isabella were missing in 1880. The six year old Patillo child would be one of their's it seems.--CW
