Jefferson Parks Hulsey died on 31 March 1909
The census records for 1890 were destroyed so there are no record of Jefferson and Sarah during that time period. But sometime before 6 March 1900, they had moved to McLennan County, Texas, where Sarah died. Jefferson Parks Hulsey moved to Taylor County where he died on 31 March 1909. He is buried in the King burial plot in the Abilene Municipal Cemetery with his daughter, Emily Melissa, who married William Lazarus King. Jefferson Park’s gravestone is a Civil War Marker.
I cannot find Jefferson Parks Hulsey in the 1900 census, but
when he died in 1909, his son Thomas Jefferson Hulsey who lived in Abilene,
Taylor County, Texas, applied for a military tombstone for which was granted.
Jefferson Parks daughter Emily who married William Lazarus King was also living
in Abilene. Jefferson Parks was buried in the King family plot in the Abilene
Municipal Cemetery.
I was able to visit their gravesite with my mother in 1990.
