Notes

Note N69"Eustache did not want his sons to be in the German army and they were getting close to the draft age, so they decided to leave the country. It was not easily done in those days, however they made their way to England. Since Joseph was of draft age, he could not leave with them. The family waited for him in England. It is not known how long they remained there before Joseph stowed away on a ship and joined them."

"Esutache bought 100 acres of land. 40 acres in one track and 60 in another. All were in Isaac Wilkins survey. The amount of the sale was 0.00."

"In 1907 Eustache and Christina sold 50 acres of land to Selestine and Agatha. The land was 7 miles southwest of the town of Emory. Eustache signed his name and Christina made her mark. The amount of the sale was 5.00."

"Eustache left the rest of his land to his children about 1914 and returned to Germany never to be heard of again."

"Eustache returned to Germany after the death of his wife in Rains Co., TX in 1906 and was never heard from again." from Norma Schultz (http://www.rootsweb.ancestry.com/~txrains/Bios/bio.htm)
