Murchison (Annettie's husband) and his father John were from Fayette County. Researching this proved that the Duncan A. Murchison but we didn't know where the Murchison's came from until I found a deed showing that in April 1849 Frank Heller bought 100 acres of land from John Murchison. Frank's daughter Annettie was the mother of my grandfather, John A. Frank is buried in Florida Chapel Cemetery but his first wife's maiden name and place of burial have not been found. Frank then married Caroline Hillmann and had five children by her.

The mother of these three died either at the birth of Frank Jr. (later shortened to Frank) Heller and his unknown wife, as were his sister Annettie, and brother, Frank Jr. Heller, who was the first farmer in Randall County in the Texas Panhandle and the first County Clerk when the County was organized was born in Fayette County to Francis A. I am B A Hyatt and am the great, great grandson of two Fayette County early settlers. Received the following email from B A Hyatt regarding some of his Fayette County ancesters: Rast your request, we have added coverage of Live Oak Hill.
