He claimed to have run away when his mother re-married an abusive man. It is very difficult to find other information.

J E Godwin is the person who applied for guardianship of J W & H L Hood, boys noted as 11 & 10 years old. It states the father of the boys lived in Camp County at the time of his death (so prior to 1893). Father’s name is not noted but I believe that to be William Berry Hood.

The Gilbreath family reunion has not meet in several years. I am anxious to hear from those who might be interested in renewing the event. I plan to visit the Gilbreath -Morrow Cemetery in Mt. Pleasant, TN within the next week, the cemetery where many of the Gilbreath, Coffee etc. are buried. I would be anxious in hearing from those who might be interested in renewing the reunion.

I have found a probate case filed in 1893 for minors H L & J W Hood in an index. I have requested a copy but it is only 2 pages so don’t know if I am going to find out much. It appears they were orphaned or abandoned around that time and might be the reason that I can’t find my grandfather anywhere in the 1900 census but he and my grandmother, Winnie, married in 1905 so seems like I should be able to find them in 1910. I haven’t as of yet. Same as you, I have found zero on Lillian Johnson. I am continuing to research and would appreciate anything that you can confirm on William Berry Hood. Jan

G G father Dr. Charles Hood 1872/1937,
GG G father Wm Berry Hood 1847/1922? married twice to Sarah Orr 1851/1880 and Lillian Johnson. I have been unable to find any info on Lillian include B/D dates.

According to public trees on Ancesty, Wm Berry and Lillian had at least one son Henry Lawrence Hood 1885 Newsome TX/1963 Winnesboro TX. I believe he is burried at Symra Cemetery in Winnsboro, TX

I have not done any direct research on Henry Lawrence Hood like census.

Do you have any b/d dates or where Lillian was buried?

I have been told that William Berry Hood and Lillian Johnson Hood are my great-grandparents but I haven’t been able to confirm it. My grandfather is Henry Lawrence Hood. I found a couple of records while searching at the Clayton Gen Library in Houston and I am going to check them out with the Wood County clerk on Monday. I haven’t been to Maple Springs cemetery but I need to go there.
