Hi, Donna,
Are you still looking for info about Edward Watterson and Margaret Cooper? I also would like to know more. My line is through my grandmother, Birdie Watterson. Her father was John Latham Watterson who was the son of Francis Edward Watterson. His parents were Henry Watterson and Elizabeth Fleshheart of Hawkins County, TN. Francis Edward's brother, Charles Coffin Watterson helped establish a community (called Watterson) in Bastrop County, Texas in the 1850's. I think Virginia Mayo told you about the cemetery there. I have a book, Watterson Folk of Bastrop County. It gives some speculation about how Edward came to America but not anything solid. My great grand father, John Latham came to Texas also but settled near Dallas and his descendants are still in the Dallas area. I live in Rowlett which is in Dallas County. How are you related to Edward and Margaret? Have you found any more information? The Henry I mention was not born until 1795. Did you find the Henry who was in the Rev. War in 1765?
