• Notes

  from "The Galveston Daily News" 10 Jun 1992 (posted by Robert Hague of findagrave.com) Frances C. Usher, a member of the Houston bar, died last night at his residence in the Fourth ward. Deceased was born in 1843 in Princeton, Caldwell county, Kentucky. He lived in his native town until the commencement of the war, and then joined the Rock City Guard in Manney's Tennessee regiment and continued in the Confederate army until the war closed. He attended a law course at Lebanon, Tenn., after the war, and settled in this city and began the practice of his profession in 1867. In 1878 he married Emily G. Bagby, a daughter of Mrs. Maria Bagby and the Colonel T.M. Bagby, deceased, and a niece of the Hon. Wm. R. Baker, our present mayor. Mr. Usher was a man of fine intellect and but for the fact that consumption , the disease of which he finally died, fastened early upon him and suppressed his energies, he would have rapidly risen the distinction. He was kind in disposition, courteous to every one, and a devoted christian. He was warmly esteemed in all circles that he moved in. He leaves a wife and two little daughter, and their many friends sympathize in the sad bereavement. His funeral took place this afternoon, and was largely attended by members of the bar and citizens generally.
