    These are children of Thomas L. Brassfield, b. April 1831 KY, d. Oct. 1902 Adair Co., MO. Thomas was son of William Trammel Brassfield and Nancy Lay, so William Jr. was actually the grandson of William, not son.
    Thomas' children by first wife, Maria Johnson, were Mary, Nancy, Rebecca, Reason (Reese), William, Harriett, Isophena; children by second wife, Eliza Howard, were George A. Ell Trammel, Pheba M. Alex, Kate, Albert, Gertie, Solomon (twin), and David (twin). The children were all born in Adair Co., MO.
    Hope this helps! This line goes back to Joseph Leonard Brassfield, William Trammel Brassfield was son of his son James.

    ******************************

    Mary Francis BRASSFIELD b.15 Aug. 1852 in Kirksville, MO was my ggggrandmother. She M. Zara C. POTTER 1866 in MO. They came to OR ca.1887. I have found that she had a twin sister, Nancy Elizabeth who settled in NE and m. Asa Aldrich. Other siblings include: Wm.Jr.,Reese ,Rebecca, & Harriet. Obviously, their father was Wm. Sr. I do have a name for their mother or any other info as I have not had a chance to do much work on this line as of yet. I believe I found the names mentioned above in an obit for Nancy. I would be very grateful to talk with any other descendants or relations and exchange notes. Thanks! Erin in OR
