My ancestor was Larkin John Austin (or John Larkin Austin) born in 1820 in Alabama. He married Edness or Edny or Emily Patterson from TN.

They migrated to Kaufman Co., TX. One of their youngest daughters was Arabella Austin, my g-g-g-g/m, born in 1856 in TX. She married Thomas Christopher Cook.

Any information about these people will be very much appreciated.

Larkin John Austin's first name seems as though it could have also been one of his ancestor's sir name(s).

Thanks,
