In The Atlanta Constitution Feb 17, 1889, p19: From Mexico, Mo Dispatch:
"Dick Worsham had on exhibition in this city a hen's egg which is a great curiosity. Upon one end of the shell, which is of extraordinary size, could be plainly discerned a number of war ships at sea gliding upon the water's calm surface. Three vessels are plainly visible. Turning the egg gradually over a seaport comes fully in view, resembling the harbor of Apin? The similarity is striking, indeed, and the Samoan matter at once enters the mind on beholding the egg, which is the product of a hen that some German neighbors of Worsham brought from the old country three years ago. The extraordinary figures upon the shell are thought to have peculiar significance just at the time when a war is imminent between Germany and America.
According to the 1900 North Wilson, Audrain Co, MO census, Richard F. & Mary E. Worsham were md for 3 yrs and she was the mother of 3 children and one was living. Therefore, Coleman and Bessie Worsham were children of Richard’s first wife, Lydia.

John Washam served as a private under Captain David Riddle of the 8th Regiment & Infantry and received a bounty land warrant 6 Oct 1818. His brothers, Heines D. Worsham & William Worsham, also served under Capt David Riddle and received a land warrant 22 Jan 1820. John Worsham, Hines & William Worsham all entered service in Salisbury, Rowan Co, NC during May 1813.
In the 1820 Mecklenburg Co, NC census, Branch Washam b 1794-1804 & wife Frances Sloan b 1794-1804 with children: 1m 1810-1820 (John Washam) & 1 f 1810-1820 (unknown). Neighbors were Stephen Archer, Martha Alexander, Miley Williamson?, James Sloan?, Matthew Whitlow, Burrell Cashion & Robert Morrow.
In the 1830 Mecklenburg Co, NC census is Branch Washam b 1790-1800, wife Frances Sloan b 1790-1800 & children: 2 m 1825-1830 (Henry Jackson Washam & unknown), 1m 1820-25 (unknown); 1 f 1825-1830 (unknown), 1 f 1815-1820 (unknown). Neighbors were James Robison, Sarah Gray, Gabral Roddin, Abraham Hucks & Ezekiel Clark.
On 11 Jan 1839 in Cabarrus Co, NC John Warsham served as bondsman for the mrg of Francis Archer & Mary H. Segress. Franklin Archer "Francis" is brother of Rebecca Archer. Interestingly, Francis Archer has been found in the 1860 Monroe, Lincoln Co, MO census as Francis Archer age 43 b NC with his wife Mary H age 40 b NC. Living with them and their children is James M. Segrass age 26 b NC. They are also in the 1870 Monroe, Lincoln Co, MO census. This is the same area of Missouri where John's brother, Hines D. Worsham, settled after he left Fort Crawford, indicating that Francis Archer may also have served in the Army from NC.
Stephen Archer's Mecklenburg Co, NC will was dated 2 Sep 1838, probated in Apr 1842: (Mecklenburg Co, North Carolina Will Abstracts by Herman W. Ferguson, 1993, Mecklenburg Co, NC will bk H, p89, abstract)
"I give my to my wife Fanny the use of my land on which she now lives, during her lifetime, also the negroes Burnett, Arty, Jim, Isom, Pitt, Nancy, and Shadrack, three horses, 10 head of cattle, three beds and furniture, the cupboard, and all the kitchen and cupboard furniture. I will to my dau Elizabeth Hart and to the heirs of my dau Mary Gibs $1 each; to my son Edward Archer if he is alive, or to his heirs, the negro Harriett; to my son Fielding Archer the negro Lidia; to the children of my son William Archer and, to the children of my dau Patsy (husband's name omitted), $1 to be divided among group; to my son John Archer the negro Mariah; to my son Page Archer the negro Amy; to my son Jesse Archer the negro Joe; to my son Franklin Archer the negro Katy; to the children of my dau Rebecca Trout, free from any sale or seizure of her husband James Trout or his creditors, the negro Lucy, two head of cattle, a bed and furniture, a stand of drawers, and a mare; and to my son Wilson Archer the negro Nancy. The remainder of my cattle, hogs, and sheep are to remain in the possession of my wf for her support during her lifetime, and at her demise all of my property, including the negroes Burnett, Arty, Jim, Ison, Pitt, and Shadrack are to be sold, and the proceeds divided equally among my children alive at that time. I will to my son Wilson Archer, at the death of my wf, the plantation on which I live and a mare. I also will to my son Franklin a mare, and to my son Page a colt. Sole exr: Friend James Dougherty. Wit: James Henderson, Jurat, and Robert Henderson."
In the 1845 Mecklenburg Co, NC estate of Stephen Archer are mentioned Branch Washam and Jas. M. Trout. Stephen Archer is the father of: Rebecca Archer b abt 1813 who md John Branch Worsham, Francis Archer b abt 1817 who md Mary H. Segress, Wilson Archer b abt. 1818 who md Violet Irene Washam (d/o John Branch Washam & 1st wife Frances Sloan) & John Archer who md Susan Washam (d/o Bennet Washam & Nancy B. Washam).
In the 1850 DeKalb Co, AL census is John B. Washam age 54 b VA & in the 1860 Broom Town Valley, Chattooga Co, GA census is John B. Worsham age 65 b VA. Interestingly, in the 1850 census his children were named Washam and in 1860 their last name was Trout. Claude Crain, 2003, found the marriage in Mecklenburg Co, NC, between Rebecca Archer and James M. Trout, 3 Aug 1836, bondsman Francis Archer, witness B. Oates. He also found James M. Trout on page 336 of the Mecklenburg 1840 cens (20101-0001), and a John Worsham is on p 343 (00000001-000001001).
The AL & GA census and mrg records of Mecklenburg Co indicate John B. Worsham md 2nd) Rebecca Archer. Her children from her 1st mrg to James M. Trout were: Stephen Trout b abt. 1838 NC (12-1850; 22-1860), Edward P. Trout b abt 1840 NC (10-1850; 20-1860), Sarah Trout b abt 1842 NC 8-1850; 17-1860), James A. or Jane J. Trout (6-1850; 14-1860). The names James vs. Jane are inconsistent between the two census records, however, James doesn't seem to be anywhere in 1860 or Jane in 1850. We assume they are the same child.
Claude Crain, 2003, has a Jane Irene Trout from Rome, GA; born in NC, and she's probably the Jane J. in the 1860 Census. Claude writes: Rebecca's children, "found online Civil War records that showed Edward P. Trout and Stephen A. Trout enlisting the same day, 14 Aug 1861, in Cedar Bluff, AL. They went into Company G, 19th AL Infantry Unit, as Privates. Also, in Gadsden, AL, 13 Aug 1861, P.G. Trout and Benjamin Archer enlisted in Co. D.
