I am seeking information on the William G. LOPEMAN / LOEPMAN family. He was murdered
on 2 Nov. 1934 and is buried in the Luling Cemetery. I have his Obit. Who was his wife and who
arranged for his burial? Perhaps an article from the paper at that time would have information. He
was born 23 Dec. 1868 in Henry, Ill. I am trying to tie him to the Lopemans who lived in that
area. Any help would be appreciated. Wife (was divorced), children, etc. Don Read.

This query is for Caldwell County. Jesse SWEARINGEN was my great-great grandfather. I am
trying to find the Civil War records of all eight of my Civil War era grandfathers. Jesse
Swearingen was in Caldwell County during that time. Another cousin who dabbles in genealogy
says he heard he was a "drover." Swearingen does not seem to have a Confederate record but
may have been in the Texas State Troops, the sort of "national guard" of the time. Can you help?
Thanks. John T. "Terry" Bozarth, 1014 Center St., Lockhart, TX 78644; 512-376-4651.
