Re: Capt John Wallis, Wallace of Randolph County

Patricia, M. J. Wallis and J. P. Terrell were listed as being executors of a John Wallis estate 1/18/1894 per Dallas Morning News-Newspaper article regarding a court case..Now, he had a son John Wallis so which one is this? Brother or son?

This may be the John Wallis you are looking for, perhaps..

Also, there needs to be a change on the household on the 1880 Dallas Co, TX Census

That is not "Jesse" Jackson listed but "Jerre" Jackson..Known as Jeremiah Jackson (originally from Caswell Co, NC, also) who married Susan Rice 1st and then Malinda G. Wallis..

See this site "Pioneer Stories"--Dallas

JEREMIAH JACKSON and SUSAN RICE JACKSON
