SEEKING INFORMATION ON LEWIS CALVIN BAW BORN IN TENNESSEE IN 1857 OR 1858 AND INFORMATION ON IDA ELIZABETH OWEN BORN IN TENN ABOUT 1867, ESPECIALLY THEIR PARENTS. LEWIS' PARENTS WERE BORN IN VIRGINIA AND IDA'S PARENTS WERE BORN IN TENNESSEE.

By the way, I have a question about IDA! I was told a few years ago that the reason she was put in a mental hospital was because because she had walked from Pittsburg Texas into Memphis. Is this true?

I have heard the story about the cemetary. However, his father's name was L. C. Baw, Lewis Calvin Baw. I've heard that he had two families, one of which is in Texas and the one I'm descended from. Virgil was one of his children. I have lists of names, etc. if you want them. I believe Lewis Calvin and my grandmother, Ida, were divorced. I'd love to talk with you via email.

My Brother, "Calvin" found our father, "Virgil Lee Baw" buried in Pittsburg, Texas. I would love to know his brothers and sisters names are and who they married. I came across a man who lives in CA but was born in Georgia who looks so much like my family. His last name is Sneed.

Virgil Lee Baw was my father. I don't know a lot about my family history since I was raised in an ophranage. If there is anyone who can help me with this, I would appreciate it.

Re: Baw {Baugh} and Bullard conections

traintulip — 2005-08-06 02:57:40Z

I believe that L.C. Baw was my grandfather. Ida was his wife. My grandfather was Benjamin Owen Baw, Jr. I know that L. C. had two families. Perhaps one was in Arkansas. I know other things and would like to know the origin of the name Baw. Do you have any information on this. My grandfather, according to my mother, said it was shortened to Baw from a long French name. She also told me that my grandmother (Ben's wife) denied this and said it was shortened from a long German name.

If you have any info, I'd appreciate sharing.

Thanks.

Re: Baw {Baugh} and Bullard conections

traintulip — 2005-08-06 02:57:40Z

Yes, I can give you all these names. I have them on a legal document somewhere which I will attempt to find as soon as I can. I have a lot of information that you may be interested in. Evidently, LC owned some land in Texas that passed to Ida and then arguments ensued among family members. Attempts to sell the land in total produced the papers researching the heirs. I can send you copies of these. Some of the info shared between you and the other lady talking through this thread looks inaccurate and perhaps these papers can clear that up. I'm new to this, so I'm not sure how to get in touch with you other than through these boards. Oh, and I think it's Louis, not Lee.

Re: Baw {Baugh} and Bullard conections

traintulip — 2005-08-06 02:57:40Z

L. C. (Louis Calvin) was Ida's husband. He had a family in Texas and a family in Arkansas, I believe. One of his children, Calvin, finally found his father buried in a cemetary somewhere in Texas. Ida and L.C.'s land was in Camp and Upshur Counties in Texas. I don't know much, but do have a few family stories to share as well as the information about the family members from the search that the lawyer did when a member of my family was trying to buy the land from the others. I'll explain all that to you when I send the records. I'll have to dig for those records and it will be at least another two weeks before I can do this as I'm on my way to Texas for the birth of my first grandchild!!! So excited to finally find someone who knows something about the family. Please email me so I can send these things by email.
Thanks so much!!!!!!

Re: Baw {Baugh} Lee or Louis C

bettybrooks — 2005-08-03 23:31:28Z

I found LEE BAW in Pine Bluff, AR , and LOUIS C. BAW in Texas- both head of the household
They both could have been L.C. Baw's, and are now being confused with each other.
The names of the wives are different, the kids are different and the ages is different, but both Lee and Louis C. are born in TN.,

If Ida was an heir to the land, whose probate was it- I thought you meant L.C. (Louis C. ) had died and she was his heir-

The census said she ( Ida) had 6 children, four of which were with her at the time of the census, the other two must have been older and gone from home.

I would have to see the land record to understand what it is saying-and the dates- can yo scan and attach to a message here or type it out, just the pertinent parts.

What I found strange was the kids born in TX. re: the census but most of them were elsewhere as adults.

When and where did L. C. die, or Ida?

I would love to work with you. I have a few records that Mike a few months ago. We knew they were in Camp Co TX. Then the records showed that Louis C was in Ark. That threw me. Do you know when they left TN and where all they landed and where in TN. The family said Hardeman TN.

More later questions Diane dlaffert@netdoor.com

Betty

Thanks for what you have done. It was from land records that I found out about Ark. Mike ordered them a few months ago. And I think I read on one post that Louis C may have had 2 families. I know Virgil did. In the land record Ida was in TX and Louis C was in Ark. Now why?

Diane, you wrote " Some of the info shared between you and the other lady talking through this thread looks inaccurate "

I really don't know anything about any Baw family other than one initial query which was about Bullard children in a Baw househould in Fayette Co., TN.

What I posted was misc. records from more than one Baw family just gleaned from searching for the Baw surname in legal records and an opinion after seeing the descendency report

1.Social Security Death Records
2.Census records of a Lee Baw in Pine Bluff, AR
3.Census Records of a Louis C Baw and wife Ida in Texas
(The census microfilm )

I think that land records/ and court records are often very revealing as to relationships and frequently better than a will- if challenged-

You asked: L.C. Baw (Does he have a longer name?)
--------------------
I guess this is the same people you are talkng about
Listed as:
LOUIS C. BAW

Louis C. Baw age 52 b. TN parents b. VA VA
Ida age 43 b. TN parents b. TN TN married 24 years, (ca 1886 probably in TN ) 8 children, 6 living - all the 4 children below born in TX
1.Florence age 18
2.Benjamin age 14
3.Cullm age 11 ( ca 1909 TX)
4.Hattie age 4
this is missing 2 children - one is Virgil and 2nd one Luther

----------------
You have listed 5 children:
1.Virgil Lee Baw
2.Benjamin Owen Baw # 2 above
3.Florence Baw # 1 above
4.Luther Baw
5.Dolly Hattie Baw # 4 above
# 6 would be the Cullm listed about as # 3-
===============
Strange that Luther would have been born in eastern Mo
but some of them seem to have been along the MS River -
does that have any connection or is it the flatland areas and farming-

I don't have a clue as to the others, this is stuff I have found searching, primarily ancestry.com for the census-
I would guess there are connections between the families, but finding it will take time.

I don't know much about the Baw's. Just looking to see what I could find. Someone in the family thought this was the family in TN. I don't know. My husband is from the Virgil Lee. Baw, the first family that was in Ark and TN. The second family was in TX.
1840 Census 2 entries both William B. Baw in Hardeman County No Township
listed Index Numbers TNS4a1601150 and TNS4a1601151

Can you give me the names of the L.C. Baw children? And who was his parents?

I don't have access to them here in Hattiesburg, MS We plan to go to the counties in the near future. I can't find anyone talking about Baw's. Even my husbands family does not know much. And does not seem to care a whole lot. Why am I pushing I don't know. They think Hardeman Co TN in 1840. I did not know about Ark until last week. I knew about Camp Co TX. Thanks.

Sorry,
I don't know anything more that I posted in my message about the Baw/Baugh family- or the Bullard daughters for that matter-
You are the first person that has ever answered

Have you checked the census for 1880-1900-1910 for this name - should give the place of birth-

Re: Baw {Baugh} and Bullard conections

2005-05-30 13:51:28Z

Betty, do you know anything about a L.C. Baw that was in Jefferson Co Ark and Camp Co TX? This was about 1910. The word is that they were from TN at one time. And he may have been married to Ida.

Baw {Baugh} and Bullard conections

bettybrooks — 2003-12-16 18:53:51Z

Searching for informaltion on a Mary Medora Bullard and Sarah Ann Bullard, both born between 1830 and 1840- living in the household of William Baw in Fayette County, TN 1850 census. Possible relation. Children of Ambrose Bullard and Mary ___?

Wm BAW was made their guardian in 1842, and in 1845 their mother May requested their uncle, Richard Bullard of Callaway Co., Mo be made their guardian.

Suspect they lived n the ames Plantation area of Fayette Co., TN.
