Lewis Green Caddell
born: 17 May 1855
marriages: Mary Elizabeth Cranshaw and/or Mary Elizabeth Phillips
there is a marriage cert for Louis and Mary Elizabeth Phillips in Etowah County, Alabama
died:10 September 1954, Aubrey, Denton, Texas
children: Minnie Letha Caddell Haynie

Goal

  1. I am looking for Lewis' parents and birth place. I believe he is buried in the Belew Cemetery, Denton County, Texas with several other Lewis Green Caddell's, all contemptories.
  2. Solve the Mary Elizabeth problem:
  • Dora Wilson, granddaughter of Lewis stated that her grandmother was Mary Elizabeth Cranshaw
  • Willie Haynie, also granddaughter of Lewis stated that her grandmother was Mary Phillips
  • Dawn has a marriage cert for Lewis and Mary Elizabeth Phillips
  • There were 6 comtempory Lewis Green Caddell's living in Denton, Texas. They are all buried in the Belew Cemetery.

What I've done

I have Minnie Letha's death certificate
They can be found on the 1880, Texas census 1
Not listed on SSDI
Not on Texas Census in other years

To do

Check Alabama census for Louis as child
Get copy of marriage cert
Find service records, they may list a wife
Find service records for Bazzie, mother may be listed
Is Mary Elizabeth Phillips Caddell or Martha Elizabeth Cranshaw Caddell buried in Belew Cemetary
