Notes - - From Gideon Lincecum, 1793-1874 by Lois Wood Burkhalter (1965) -- pg. 73:
"On November 9, 1848, M. Austin Bryan for $1,371.00 conveyed to Gideon Lincecum the northeast corner of League No. 5, containing 1,828 acres (Deed Records, Washington County, H, 355-356). The Lincecum land was disposed of, in differing lots and acreages and over a period of time until Gideon's death, to the following (Deed Records, Washington County): ...Leonora Campbell...Mary J. Rutherford...L. J. Lincecum...L. W. Lincecum...E. C. Lincecum...L. W. C. Lincecum...L. L. Lincecum...L. R. Lincecum...Sarah L. Doran...Cassandra Durham...Mary Matson..."
- From Gideon Lincecum, 1793-1874 by Lois Wood Burkhalter (1965) -- pg. 87:
"Lysander, the youngest son, did not marry until 1864. He remained at home, even after his marriage, learned medicine from his father, and practiced in Long point. Lysander attempted several times to enlist in the Confederate Army, but 'his asthma was so bad none of them would let him stay and the poor fellow does his wheezing at home.' But the shy Lysander made himself useful at home during the war -- daily cutting firewood for his sister Leonora's house while her husband was away, consuming all Gideon's shots in killing partridges for his ailing mother, and running errands for war widows. He was finally accepted for duty in 1864 and joined John S. Ford's command on the Rio Grande. A few days before he left Long Point he married Mollie Wood, daughter of Gideon's old friend, Silas Wood..."
