I know that you are wanting some answers but I did find William M. Nowlin born December 10, 1829 Died Aug 19. 1905 Buried in the Ethel Cemetery, Grayson Co, Texas - find a grave memorial # is 22481492. I did find that they did marry on Aug 17, 1855 in Hopkins Co. Texas. I also found that on his son's grave William Sherrod Nowlin Born 12-18-1862 and died March 14, 1907 Buried in the Tomerlin Cemetery, Medina County, Texas - find a grave memorial # 5057914 It says that Arzelia Starrett Nowlin died between 1872- and 1880 But I cannot find anything from my computer, however I might could find something at the genealogy Center either tomorrow or Saturday. I will try to find something. I did access a marriage site that said her last name was Itarrett. I don't know if that is the correct spelling cause I did find it spelled different ways. Starrett, sterrett, sterritt, staret, So I don't know if this is the correct spelling or not, but let me do some checking and I will see what I can find out. Ok I will check back once I find something. smith41
I went to my genealogy center and this is what I found; Arzela Nowlin was born about 1832 in Georgia. She is the daughter of John Starrett age 56 Born 1794 South Carolina- his wife Elizabeth Starrett is 55 years old - children J.A. Starrett is 18 years and V.R. Starrett is 16 years. This is from 1850 U.S. census in Dist. 1 Habersham Georgia. J.A. Starrett is Arzela Starrett. But I think it is suppose to be I.A. Starrett. And I also think that her first name is Isabella Arzela Starrett.

I am sorry that I did not write down his age but I can go back and get it. I think maybe this Thomas may be Susan child after she married William but it could be that Thomas was Arzela's child and that she died in childbirth. I don't know but it is a possibility.
