| Notes |
- According to the 1870 census, John was born about 1838 in Maryland. According to FindaGrave.com, he was born January 12, 1829, which is apparently the date taken from his tombstone. In either case, his wife was much younger than him.
John practiced medicine in Brazoria Co., Texas.
John had no children by Lavinia.
According to a series of articles in The Facts (Brazoria Co., Texas), published on February 11, 18 and 25, 2008, John was a notorious anti-Reconstructionist in Brazoria Co. In 1880, he led a group of 25 men who threatened a U.S. Customs agent named Amos T. Bissell who had made a "Republican speech", critical of Brazoria's reconstruction progress. The articles reference a story in The New York Times on July 18, 1880, which described the incident. That story was followed by several others. The articles said that according to the testimony “of many credible persons” Brazoria County’s formerly dominant class had adopted a plan pursued in certain districts of South Carolina, Mississippi and Louisiana, where labor of the blacks “could not be dispensed with without ruin to all industries.” The article suggested that Dr. Ashcom already had the blood of at least three persons on his hands. Mr. Bissell filed a complaint that was referred to the U.S. attorney, who apparently ordered the men to be arrested. The article does not describe the outcome of any proceedings.
