I have been researching VEASY (and its endless variations)
in Burleson, Milam & Robertson County. I'm trying to find
AMANDA b. 1860, Burleson Co.(who had a daughter(?) named WILLIE OCTAVIA b. 1881)without much luck because of the
several surnames she is connected with (JONES, DECHERD, EPPERSON as well as VEASY et al).
I do have more information on JOHN WILLIAM VEASY (also, Veasey & Veazey!) from Burleson Co. records. I wish to say
this info provided through the graciousness & generosity of
a volunteer look-up for that county!

Probate birth records Volume 4, page 226 & 227.
