Comments:
Widow Bacon the 4th wife of Elijah Bailey.The last child was born after Elijah passed away in 1866, Not much is known about this family except that the 2 children were taken with other family members to Cooke Co. TX per records from the Upshur Co. Courthouse, Gilmer, TX. One got married in Cooke Co. but I do not remember which one. The exact whereabouts of the Bailey burial grounds are being researched now but will require travel SW of Pittsburg,TX
