The Watkins family lived in Desoto Parish in 1850 Census very near her parents, and in 1852 Martin & Salina sold out to her brother Athanase Rambin and Aaron Gandy, and removed to Sabine County, Texas, removing to Nacogdoches County prior to 1865.
Salina was the daughter of Jean Baptiste Azenor Rambin & wife Marie Angelica Carmelite ("Carmella") Palvados . Her brothers Francois Alexis ("Alexander") Rambin & Francois Bertrand Rambin had settled in the Cedar Bluff area called "Rambin Town" in 1846, and her sister Marie Adelaide Rambin Wallace, Briley soon followed, prior to 1860, settling in Briley Town Community, south of Garrison.
Salina was living with her children in 1880 in the Wanders Beat, which is between Briley Town & Cedar Bluff Communities. She died prior to 1900 and is probably also buried (Unmarked) at Old Moss Cemetery, Nacogdoches Co, Texas.
Much of the information on this family came from personal interviews with Aunt Mollie (Rambin) Sparks, 1978-81. Aunt Mollie was wife of Allen Sparks, s/o William R. Sparks & wife #1 Mary A. King, and lived in HH with or next door to, William R. Sparks & #2 wife, Luvenia Watkins Gardner, until they died.-sgs

Be it remembered that on this seventh day of November, AD, 1852,

duly commissioned and sworn, personally came and appeared Martin Watkins, who
declared that for and in consideration of the sum of four hundred dollars, paid
as hereinafter expressed, he had sold and does by these presents grant, bargain,
sell, assign, set over and deliver unto Aaron Gandy and Athanaise Rambin,
present and accepting purchasers for their heirs and assigns with a full and

the same unto the said purchasers, their heirs and assigns, and to their proper

warrant and defend the title to said property against the legal claims of all
other persons, hereon subrogating said purchasers to all the rights and

Rambin by Martin Watkins, the property herein conveyed with all rights,
claims, mortgages or privileges she may be entitled,. whether by virtue of
marriage with Martin Watkins, or otherwise, whereupon I the said Notary did

not only all the rights, claims and privileges herein before mentioned and
described, but all others of any nature or kind whatsoever, to which she may be
