This is the most likely family, because they all lived in Collin Co. Texas during the
same years. The daughter Sarah, is the right age, born in Tennessee and had a
brother and grandfather named Reuben. Then she named a son Reuben.
However there is still more research that needs to be done.

Note: Virginia Family Histories #3, 1600-1800s
Genealogies of Virginia Families, Volume III, Towles and Clark Families, Page 583.

On October 21, 1708, Stokeley Towles married, in Middlesex, Ann (born August 14, 1693) daughter of Claude Vallott, also known as Claude Champagne, who, on October 6, 1684, deposed that he was 35 years old. Vallott's wife was Ann (nee Jenkinson).

The Towles and Vallot families are original emigrants to Virginia and have had considerable histories written on the families. The most complete Towles genealogy is in the Virginia Genealogist Vol. 8 p. 220 et. seq. and Stokeley our direct line is found thoroughly researched in Tyler's Quarterly Historical Vol. XIII, pub. 1932, article of Towles and Clarks by William Newman starting on page 23 and continuing through several volumes. The Stockley/Stokeley family lines go back to 1609 and the original immigrants of brothers Francis and John Stockley. They located on the Eastern Shore of VA in Accomac County.

Towles' will, of record at Culpeper, made January 15, proved December 15, 1757, named Spencer Bobo and testator's (second) wife Jane executors.
From this will and other records, it appears that he had the following children: I Oliver, II JOHN, born April 5, 1712, III Henry (first),
IV Elizabeth, born December 7, 1716, V Ann, born April 23, 1719, VI Catherine, born July 5, 1721, VII Mary (first), born November 1, 1722, VIII Jane, born February 20, 1726, IX Joseph, born February 23, 1728, X FRANCES, born May 8, 1726, XI Stokely, XII Judith, born April 13, 1735, XIII Lucy, XIV Mary (second), born April 12, 1749, XV Henry (second), born March 15, 1756.
Yes, two named Mary and two named Henry.

THE WILL OF FRANCES VAWTER
In the name of God Amen, I Frances Vawter (widow of the late Richard Vawter, deceased) of the County of Madison and state of Virginia, calling in word the certainty of death and the uncertainty of life after death dothe make and ordain this my last will and testament revoking all other wills by me before made - Insomuch to bequeath my soul to God who gave it and my body to be buried in a decent and Christian like manner and as to my worldly goods my will and desire is that after my decease my Executor sell the whole of my estate and the money arising from the sale those together with that debts as owing to me and all the money I have in hand be divided in the following manner first pay to my daughter Frances Alpha and Omega Shelton thirty six pounds lawful money of Virginia and the balance to be equally divided between by three daughters Francis Alpha and Omega Shelton above mentioned. Ann Vaughter and Nancy Wilhoit and their lawful heirs- I leave my estate in this manner for my conviction that my children herein named have received less from there Father Richard Vawter dece'd than my other children, lastly I appoint my friend Joseph Early executor to this my last will and testament. In witness where of I have set my hand and seal this 11 day of November one thousand eighty hundred and eleven. by Frances Vawter. In the presence of John Harrison Elizabeth (?) and Adam Rouse.

Note: Henry Towles was the immigrant ancestor, who settled first in Accomac CO. He was born in Liverpool, England. His date of birth was inferred from a deposition he gave in 1684, when he stated he was 32 years old. His date of death was estimated from his will which was proved June 6, 1721 in Accomac County, Virginia and lists his children as: Henry, STOKELEY, Job, Thomas and Kendall. Henry Towles was buried in Middlesex county, VA.
An account of the Towles family was published in Volumes 8 and 9 of the Virginia Magazine. Volume 8, p 320-321 indicated that Henry Towles may have come from Liverpool and settled in Accomack Co., that he married Ann Stokeley.
His will was recorded in Wills Deeds and Orders 1678-1682 p/282.
He mentions his sons: Kendall, Job, Henry, Stokeley and Thomas and his "Loving wife" and friends and neighbors, Thomas Jenkinson and Thomas Jenkinson, Jr., whom he designated as his executors.
STOKELEY TOWLES, the fourth son mentioned in his father's will, had resided in Middlesex County for some years before his father's death. This county was back across the Chesapeake Bay from the home of his father. So Stokeley was probably given his inheritance at the time he left his native county -- thus explaining why he was bequeathed only one shilling under the terms of his father's will.
Christ Church Parish Register records (page 81) the marriage of Stokeley Towles to Ann Velott on October 21, 1708. In this record both surnames are incorrectly spelled but there is no doubt as to the identities. This source also records the birth of Anne, daughter of Claude and Ann Vallott as July 31, 1693 and baptised Aug. 14, 1693.
Ann Vallott was just fifteen years old when she became Mrs. Stokeley Towles.

Note: Had nephew called "Oliver Jr."

Note: Virginia Family Histories #3, 1600-1800s
Genealogies of Virginia Families, Volume III, Towles and Clark Families, Page 584.
Towles, who was probably born in Accomac about 1690, lived north of Jamaica in Middlesex county until 1737.

On October 21, 1708, Stokeley Towles married, in Middlesex, Ann (born August 14, 1693) daughter of Claude Vallott, also known as Claude Champagne, who, on October 6, 1684, deposed that he was 35 years old. Vallott's wife was Ann (nee Jenkinson).

The will of Stokley Towles:
In the name of God Amen. I Stokley Towles of the County of Culpeper and parish of Brumfield being sick and weak of body but perfect in sense and memory thanks to God for the same, do make this my last will and testament in form and manner as followeth to wit:
Item. I give and bequeath to my son Joseph Towles my dividend of land beginning at the north of the Little Run and running from thence the several courses up the said run to the mountain ground, from thence up the hollow to John Layton's line to him and his heirs forever.
And the rest of the land which I had from Thomas Walker from the south side of said run and so up the run several courses to the said John Layton's line I give to Isaac Medley (married Jane Towles) his heirs and assigns.
Item. I give to my youngest son Henry Towles the old negro man Charles to him and his heirs.
Item. I give to my well beloved wife Jane Towles and the two children which I had by her Mary Towles and Henry Towles three feather beds and furniture.
Item.

Gayworth; all my hogs and the crop of cotton.
Item. I give to my wife my chest of drawers walnut chest one looking glass three iron pots such as she thinks to choose; also two skillets and two tables and half of my chairs to her liking and half of my pewter and all my tin pans and all my bee hives and all my woodenware and all the fowls upon the plantation and all the beef and bacon that I killed in the house and about four pistoles I have owing to me which I give to my youngest son Henry Towles which I deserve for to give him learning. And two spinning wheels one linel wheel and the other a wooden one and three glass bottles and if either of these two children Mary Towles or Henry Towles should die before they come to man and woman's estate that part of the said estate shall go to the other.
And desire is that the rest of my estate except the above mentioned legacie my be equally divided amongst all my children old and young but I desire that the said estate may not come to an apprisement; And I appoint Spencer Bobo and my wife Jane Towles Executor and Executress to this my last will and testament as witness my hand this fifteenth day of January 1757.

Note: To Jesse Grimes
March 3, 1836
Do me the favor to send the enclosed to its proper destination instantly. I am still here, in fine spirits and well to do, with 145 men. I have held this place for ten days against a force variously estimated from 1,500 to 6,000, and shall continue to hold it till I get relief from my country or I will perish in its defense. We have had a shower of bombs and cannon balls continually falling among us the whole time, yet none of us has fallen. We have been miraculously preserved. You have no doubt seen my official report of the action of the 24th ult. in which we repulsed the enemy with considerable loss; on the night of the 25th they made another attempt to charge us in the rear of the fort, but we received them gallantly by a discharge of grape shot and musquertry, and they took to their scrapers immediately. They are now encamped in entrenchments on all sides of us.
All our couriers have gotten out without being caught and a company of 32 men from Gonzales got in two nights ago, and Colonel Bonham got in today by coming between the powder house and the enemy's upper encampment....Let the convention go on and make a declaration of independence, and we will then understand, and the world will understand, what we are fighting for. If independence is not declared, I shall lay down my arms, and so will the men under my command. But under the flag of independence, we are ready to peril our lives a hundred times a day, and to drive away the monster who is fighting us under a blood-red flag, threatening to murder all prisoners and make Texas a waste desert. I shall have to fight the enemy on his own terms, yet I am ready to do it, and if my countrymen do not rally to my relief, I am determined to perish in the defense of this place, and my bones shall reproach my country for her neglect. With 500 men more, I will drive Sesma beyond the Rio Grande, and I will visit vengeance on the enemy fighting against us. Let the government declare them public enemies, otherwise she is acting a suicidal part. I shall treat them as such, unless I have superior orders to the contrary.
My respects to all friends, confusion to all enemies. God Bless you.

To David Ayers
March 3, 1836

Take care of my little boy. If the country should be saved, I may make for him a splendid fortune; but if the country be lost and I should perish, he will have nothing but the proud recollection that he is the son of a man who died for his country.

The letter to David Ayers is the last known letter written by Travis before the fall of the Alamo on the morning of March 6, 1836.

William Barret Travis died at his post on the cannon platform at the northeast corner of the fortress. He was 26 years old.

Jesse Grimes is brother to Esther Grimes Branch.
