I am very interested in this Steven Baxter Splawn as just tonight I was out at our friends whom we have known all our lives. Their father was Stephen Baxter Splawn and I had asked them about their genealogy as I wanted to help them find more info. The dates are not the same. The Stephen we are looking for was their father. He was born 11-8-1885 (Oklahoma) and died 10-14-1951 (Gresham, Oregon). He married Willie Logan Rushing on 11-6-1909 in Oklahoma. Stephen's father was John William Splawn who was born in Missouri 11-12-1853 and his mother was Mary Cam Jaye who was born 9-5-1855 in Illinois. Do you think that your Steven Baxter Splawn might be a brother to John William Splawn? John William Splawn's father was listed in their papers as Mayberry Splawn of Missouri and only showed the name Caroline as Mayberry's wife from Kentucky. Stephen's family settled in Gresham, Oregon I think in the 1930's. He owned a restaurant at the State Fair, but had other work. Their family does have more information, if you think we are on the right track. Stephen and Willie (mom Splawn)had a large family here. Several are still alive. We worked for their son, Floyd, a number of years. You can reach me at rox61@hotmail.com

Mayberry Splawn Jr.
Some of this information (I believe) came from Sammy Duncan, Splawn
genealogist, 2424 Oaklawn Blvd., San Angelo, Texas, 76903. (1983)
An additional source of info for this fgs comes from Diana Enz, 15515 SE 322,
Boring, Oregon. 97009 (503) 668-6229, April 1989.
An additional source of info is Roy. L. Splawn, (1985) 4901 SW 100th Ct,
Miami, Florida 33165. This is the source for Elizabeth Splawn. I assumed she
was the daughter of Mayberry, but this is not proven.
Another source of information is Norma Corey. She lists as an additional
source, the 1850 census of Gundy Co. Missouri. She also lists a marriage lic
for Mayberry and Frances. She also lists, obituary of Jeremiah. She has, as a
birthday for Mayberry, Abt 1814.
