In Reply to: Quick Question: James and Pamelia Waller Foster Marriage by Sunshine Schwarz of 1181

Hi Sunshine,
Sorry I can't be much help. I'm also looking for info on James and Pamelia Waller Foster. My husband's line is from their daughter Evantha Foster b. 1832 in LA.

"Judge (Richardson A Scurry) was married to Evantha Foster, daughter of James and Pamelia (Waller) Foster, who came to Texas in 1832 and settled near the site of the present town of Hempstead (Tx). Miss Foster met her future husband in 1836, while he was in the army and she was in a camp in the famous "Runaway Scrape." She next met him in Washington, Texas while he was a member of the Texas Congress and she was visiting the town under the chaperonage of her cousin, Mrs. Sarah Wharton. Mrs. Scurry was born in 1823 and died in Dallas in 1895, and is buried in the Hempstead Cemetery."

They moved to Texas in 1832 and I'm guessing probably died there. They would have been in their 60's by then. I will let you know if I find anything else!

Lisa Luther
