I am looking for information on Levi P Geer, born in 1794 in Mass. married Jane McCray in Farifield SC (1826), then migrated down to Georgia, Owned a plantation in Georgia, sold it about 1850, and migrated to Harrison County (Marshall area) Texas. His wife was Elizabeth Pullig, children were: Rosamond F. "Vallie" Geer b.1830 SC, Horatio Nelson Geer b. 1832 SC, Snowdon Geer b.1833 SC, George L Geer b. 1835 Troup Georgia, and Victoria A Geer b.1839 Troup Georgia. I do not know if any other of the brothers and sisters moved to Texas with Levi and Elizabeth, or if they stayed in Georgia. I know that one son, Horatio Nelson Geer was in Texas, and married Mary Bowdry Freeman of Jefferson Texas in 1851. I can find no records of Levi and Elizabeth, and no records of Horatio till 1880 - Have not been able to find any of the brothers and sisters... If anyone can help, it would be much appreciated. Thanks, Alice

Alice, Levi Geer/Gere was my great great grandfather. I have been researching this line for about 15 years.
Horatio Nelson Geer was my great grandfather.
