“I told you, and ye believed not: the works that I do in my Father’s name, they bear witness of me.” “But ye believe not, but because ye are not of my sheep, as I said unto you.” “My sheep hear my voice, and I know them, and they follow me. And a stranger will they not follow.”

The Segrest family originated Saxe-Coburg in northern Germany. At that time they were known as the Sigrist family. Henry Segrest (1757- 1836) and Jacob Segrest (1759-1839) immigrated to America and settled in South Carolina. They settled in the Orangeburg district of that state. Henry married and was the father of seven children. Descendants moved to Alabama, Mississippi, Louisiana and Texas.
