     Posted on Fenrich Family website by LizaJane on September 8, 2003:

I stumbled onto your site and forum today after finding the missing link from my family to Jacob Doom. Have read with great interest the many postings and replies. Here is my connection to all of you: Jacob and Abigail had a son, John born 1785 in Bardstown, Nelson Co., KY, who married Mary "Polly" Kelly, b. @@1789 in SC, on 25 Feb 1810 in Caldwell Co., KY. They had five children that I know: Isaac, Randolph, Henry, Jacob and Jesse. Randolph was born 7 Jan 1811 in Caldwell Co., KY.

He migrated to Texas in time for the War for Independence from Mexico and served as paymaster in the Army of the Republic of TX in Henry Hubbe's company. Upon entering Texas he listed "violinist" as his occupation and stated that he had read law in KY. He was at the Battle of San Jacinto, which ended the war. He is said to have played "Come to the Bower" on his violin for Sam Houston. The violin now belongs to the Daughters of the Republic of Texas, though my own son is a professional violinist. The Colonel (which was more honorary than earned title) was first married to Nancy Ward. They had James, Sarah Ann Elizabeth, Mary Frances and Helen. Nancy died in Austin, Travis Co., TX the year Mary Frances was born. (One year later on 15 Aug 1847 he married Altazera Williams Everitt, widow of Stephen Everitt. They had David, Jennie and Nancy Elizabeth.) Sarah Ann Elizabeth Doom was born 25 Feb. 1843 and wed Thomas W. Causey, born 17 Mar 1824 in MS, on 13 May 1858 in Jasper Co., TX. By that time Col. Doom had served variously in the Republic's Legislature and after Texas was admitted to the U.S., in the state legislature. He also served for a time as Customs Agent for Sabine Pass, appointed by Republic President Sam Houston. He was a plantation owner and attorney in Jasper Co. He was elected County Judge 3 times. He died in December 1881 in Jasper. His daughter "Eliza" and Thomas had seven children, Mary "Mollie", Phillip (a violinist), Nancy "Nannie", Arch B., Helen, Nellie and Frances "Fannie" Causey. Note the naming of children for beloved Doom relatives and also Causeys. Arch B. Causey was born Dec 1869 in Jasper Co., TX and married May Kellie, dtr of Capt Edward Irwin Kellie and Mattie S. Brown, in @@1893 in Jasper. She was born 30 Jan 1873 in Jasper. Their eight children included Leon Bertram, Lexie May, Edgar, Thomas, Gladys, Ruth, Irma, and Archie. Leon was born 27 Sep 1895 and married Grace Musgrove of Merryville, LA in @@1825. She was born 14 Jan 1904. Their children were LB, Jr. and my mother Bety Jo, born 10 Nov 1930. Eliza Doom Causey died 16 Jan 1939.

Arch B Causey died in 1941. May Kellie Causey died 18 Oct 1958. My mother was married to Harold Eugene Evans, b. 27 Sep 1927 in BonWier, TX, on 11 Nov 1954 and they divorced in 1973. LB Jr married Maxine Evans, b. 4 Sep 1932 in BonWier, TX. LB died Aug 2002 in Kirbyville, TX.

Leon died April 1977 and Grace died Nov 1986, all in Kirbyville. I was born in Kirbyville 26 July 1955 and have two brothers, Hal and John. John has a dtr, Shelby Elizabeth Evans, b. 9 Jan 1984. My sons are David Sean Clark (the violinist for this generation), b. 22 Feb 1981, Abilene, TX. and Kevin Forrest Clark, b. 22 Dec 1984.

My sources include census, military, SSI death index, cemetery, birth and marriage records, Daughters of the Republic of TX, TX State Historical Assoc., numerous family bibles and LDS files for support.

Because my mother and I were genealogy buffs from the time I was quite young, we have numerous legends from the ancestors who actually lived into the 20th century. Eliza lived till my mom was 9 and told her about Jacob leaving PA for KY. She also told that Jacob's ancestor was a Prussian soldier. No verification. And she said Dooms are Dutch, which seems to be so. As for the mysterious Abigail Clark with possible sisters Hannah and Elizabeth, I came across those names a while back when researching my husband's family with his aunt. We are scrambling to recover that data. If it is the same Abigail, I have her family tree. Will check and post. So glad to have found the Dooms after all this searching.

By the way, Lizajane is not my given but a nickname from Leon, my grandfather. It's also a fiddle tune Phillip played and it's safe to imagine the Col. did as well. It was one of the first my David learned. Cheers.
