TN.1177 Ed shared the following from "Tennessee Roots: Catherine Stewart of Henderson County" by Richard Cratis Wadley and Eunice Stewart Goddard (Norman, OK, 1987).
This book describes the "pillow slip papers," the story of which is as follows. Catherine Stewart's oldest daughters, Mahala Caroline (abt. 1827-abt. 1881) and Roseanna Margaret (Peggy)(abt. 1829-aft. 1881) were spinsters and lived together. Some time after their death (and burial in the Preslar cemetery), members of the Stewart family were "wrecking out" the old house where they lived, and found in the attic a dirty old pillow case containing dozens of old and yellowed papers which Catherine had saved, the earliest dated 4 May 1837. Some of the old papers were obviously brought from NC, and many were letters written home by the boys during the Civil War.
Amongst the "pillow slip papers" is a three-page document written by Hosea Preslar entitled "A true account of Hosea Preslar's bisness as garddean for Miles T. Little up to the time of my last settlement with the county cort." No other details are given in this book, except that it set forth his expenditures in this connection and stated he "rezined my garddean ship and turned the same over to E.S. Steagall."

Martin Rosales Jr. International Radio and TV personality Martin Rosales Jr., 74, passed away on November 29, 2004, in Austin. He was born December 27, 1929, in Gonzales, Tx. He was preceded in death by his parents, Martin Sr. and Maria P. Orduna de Rosales; and his sister, Blanca Diaz; and one brother, Ramon Escobedo. International Radio owes its beginnings to a man whose voice (he was pinned "La Voice de Oro") is one immediately and unmistakably recognized. His radio programs have been in the memories of many people who live all through Texas and Mexico since the early 1948. His radio talent made Spanish radio acceptable in the competitive radio world which had been dominated by English-speaking programming in Texas for several years before. He has been a dedicated mass media personality that includes radio and television in several other Southwestern states for the past 50 years. The success of Spanish radio in South Texas is attributed to his contributions. He graduated form Gonzales High School in 1948 where he played the position of quarterback for the Gonzales Apaches Football team. While still in high school he started his radio career for KCTI in Gonzales. After graduation from high school, he went to Monterrey, Nuevo Leon, Mexico, to study at Instituto Technologico de Estudios Superiores where he had a chance to hone his Spanish language skills even more. Upon completion of studies in Mexico, he moved to Austin to become the chief announcer of radio station KTXN. He soon became director of several radio stations in Texas, Mexico, California, and New Mexico. Radio stations with call letters KGBS, KSOX, KGBT, KMBS, KIWW, KMXX, KTXN, KXEB, KBOR, and KMMM, AM and FM. In 1968 he and Ralph Thompson went to South Vietnam as Spanish language correspondents on behalf of KGBT-TV in Harlingen, Tx. There they met up with Walter Cronkite. He has been one of the few Hispanic individuals who have had the opportunity to introduce several U.S. Presidents including the Lyndon B. Johnson, Ronald Reagan, Gerald Ford, Jimmy Carter and George H.W. Bush . His influence on Spanish radio carries with it a legacy that will be remembered for many years to come. He was instrumental in launching some of the greatest conjunto artists like Freddie Fender, Ruben Vela, Los Hermanos Banda, and Los Hermanos Rodriguez of Santa Rosa, Tx. To name a few.

Andrew ROSS appeared in the census in 1790 in Anson Co. NC.1219 There are two Andrew Rosses in the 1790 census. Both live near a William Martin. The first Andrew Ross has 3 males under 16 and 1 female. Before him are Gustavus Ross, Phillip Paul, Henry Bluford, Rachael Purdue, David Gray. After him are Margaret Long, Josiah Williams, Walter Ross, Mary Mask, John Davidson, Hugh McDonald, Calvine Martin, Richard Ratliff.
The other Andrew Ross is also within 4 places of a William Martin. This Andrew has 3 males under 16 and 3 females. He is preceded by Humphrey, Richard, and William Rogers; Thomas Martin, Aron Tallent Jr., and Beverley Clark. He is followed by William Williams, Walter Leak, William Martin, Richard Griffin, Melton Ponyman. He died before Apr 1803 in Anson Co. NC.1220 Andrew's will names wife Elizabeth and Walter, John, James, and Martin, with no relationship specified. Daughters may be Frances Duckworth, Mary Williams, and Elizabeth Vining. All information from abstract of will provided by Martha Little. Listed four male heirs but did not mention relationship. Assuming them to be sons.
The natural assumption is that Walter Ross, the RW pensioner, is the son of this Andrew Ross. However, a book published by John W. Ross in 1978 says that Walter is the son of immigrant Walter Ross. In addition, the White pension abstract for Walter Ross says "also shown was: William Marten m Rebecca daughter of Walter & Margaret Ross 4 July 1784 & their daughter Salley b 16 Sept 1785, Nancey b in 1787, a daughter (name illegible) b in Feb 1792." Our Walter, if born in 1761, could not have had a daughter who married in 1784. Would seem logical that Walter and Rebecca were siblings and perhaps their father was a Walter Ross? Parents: ROSS.
