Looking for Bunn of Texas and Alabama Norris of Texas Wallace of Texas Fricke of Texas Germany
My family history starts with Etheldred Bunn from Northampton Co., NC who married Sarah Sykes and had a son, Henry (blind Henry) born in 1793 in same co. They also had 3 daughters. "Blind Henry" married Elizabeth Smith and they had 2 sons, Wiley and Green. That wife died and he married Cynthia Stout and they had 5 more children, 3 daughters and 2 sons. One son, Henry was born 2/14/1838. He married Cincinnati Huffman Yant 5/10/1858 in Lincoln Co., TN and had 10 children, 5 sons and 5 daughters. One of these sons, Travis Ashby Bunn was my greatgrandfather. He married Ola Winona and they had 4 daughters and 3 sons. One of his sons, Henry Dee Bunn was born June 10, 1908 in Laredo, Texas I think. Henry Dee married Madelyn Ward and they had 2 daughters, one of whom was my mother, Clara Dee Bunn.
I am also looking for any information of my Dad's side which is Norris. My first records are John G. Norris, born 1829 or 30. He had 4 children, one son born in TN and the next 3 born in TX. The son, Robert Lee was born on 1/13/1851 and he joined the Texas Rangers on 5/16/1874. He married Mary Mills and they had 7 children: Mattie, Sallie, Ellie Mae, Robert Frank, John Henry (my greatgrandfather), Lewis, and Richard. John Henry married Maude McDaniel and they had 8 children: Della, Henry,Virgil, Lena, Lenard, Raymond, Hubert Lee, and Dorothy.
All I know of my Wallace family is that my grandmother, who was named Maggie Lee Wallace had 11 brothers and sisters: Jim, who lived in Bruni, Texas, Cora , Smith, Lucy, Kitten, Alec, Tom, who lived in Premont, TX and had 2 sons: Miles and Kenneth, Minor who lived in the Fort Worth area most of his life and had a son, Ronnie and a daughter, Monette, Pete, Dora and Brandon. The Fricke family is my husband's family. I probably know even less about them. His grandfather was Fred Fricke who married Eugenia Vogelsang and they had 4 sons and one daughter. The sons were Clinton, Warren, Fred Jr. and Lee Roy (who was my father-in-law). The daughter was Annie Louise Fricke Banik, she resides in Round Top, Texas now and will soon be 91.
