BATES, Martha Jane
Bates, Martha Jane Martha Jane Bates born in Ala around 1852. Her mother was named Elizabeth ?
Martha came to Florida and married my great-grandfather Joseph Alfred Lucas on July 29, 1873 in Fernandia Beach Fla. She died arond 1884
Levi BROOKSHIRE. The first reference we find of him is his marriage to Eliza Ellen CRAWFORD on 23 Jul 1898 in St Clair County, Alabama. We know that he fathered three children. Jessie (5 May 1899) Milton (27 Jul 1901) and Lydia (5 Sept 1903). Our next info is that Eliza married Jake Smith on
15 Aug 1906 in Fulton County, Georgia. In the 1960's Levi's grave was
identified as an unmarked grave in the Easonville Methodist Church Cemetery. It was moved to the Cropwell Baptist Church Cemetery before the power company made the big reservoir. So...we don't know where Levi was born, where he died or who his parents were. Cannady, Archibald H. He was born in Georgia about 1818 and died during the was in 1861. He married Clarissa Mahalie(Clearcie Mahaley) Garrett on 3/31/1850 in St. Clair County, Alabama. I am looking for his parents.

Clemons, Alcy If you know about this person or come across information about him or any of
his family (Black or White) please let me know. Thank you. Copeland, Sarah Hanna
I am looking for some info on my great grandmother Sarah Hanna Copeland.
Some facts: Sarah Hanna Copeland brn abt 1883 In ala (According to 1900 census)
1900 Census has her living with a family in DeKalb county Ala
James and Mary E Teague. Sarah is noted to be 16 and sister in law.
1910 Census has her married to Jesse S. Hallmark living in Etowah county (Altoona) Al with children. I have been looking for years for info on her. Cosby, Marion I. I'm looking for information on Marion I. Cosby, born 1889 in Alabama. He married Mary Jane Woodal about 1907-1908. They are in the 1910 census in Tupulo, Jackson, Alabama. I can't seem to find Marion any earlier. I would appreciate any help. They had 9 children. Hugh, Rufus, Loren, Luther, Lee, Estella, Jack, and Harmizick. Davis, Calber (Caleb) L.
was living in Benton County, 29th
Subdivision in 1850. Records indicate that he was born in South Carolina
about 1821. I do not know who his parents were or at what point he moved to
Alabama. He moved away from Alabama some time about 1860 and moved to
Mississippi and then to Dyer County, Tennessee between 1867-1870.
Some time before 1843 he married Sarah (Sallie) F. Unk., born abt.
1824 in Georgia. Ferguson, Ewell Crawford My ancestor Ewell Crawford Ferguson is listed in the 1860 and 1880 census of Pickens County, AL (In 1870, he is just across the border at Macon, MS.)
He is very much a mystery. In 1860 he is listed as age 28, born in AL; in 1870 he is listed as age 34, born in TN; in 1880 he is listed as age 52, born in VA.
In 1860, he is married and has four children, the oldest being born around 1852. I cannot find him in the 1850 census, although there is a Ferguson family with two sons having the initials E.C. Ferguson. The oldest is Emmett C. Ferguson - could this be Ewell C. Ferguson? In two census records, he is listed as Crawford Ferguson.
Emmett C. Ferguson was the son of Mary and Larkin Ferguson (deceased prior to 1850).

Please help! I am looking for any information on the parents of Greenberry T Gray of Lawrence County. He married Mary Brown in 1838. His father was Joseph Linn Gray and mother was Bettie Summers Alexander both from some part of Tennessee. I do know that Joseph purchased 40 acres in Lawrence County in 1834 and got remarried in 1836 to Priscilla Boyd in 1836. I would like to know where in Tennessee Joseph Linn Gray came from and if possible where Greenberry or Joseph Linn are buried.

I am looking for more information on my Great Grandmother, Martha Emma Henry. Here is what I know. She was the daughter of James Henry and Mary Ann Segrest Henry. She was born June 21, 1858 in Macon County, Alabama. She married Master Nathaniel Brown around 1876-1877. (There are some family rumors that say he may have changed his name to Brown when they left Alabama and came to Texas sometime before 1891.) Martha Emma Brown died January 28, 1917 in Polk County, Texas. Her father, James Henry was born about 1809 in Wilmington, North Carolina and died between 1870-1880. Her mother, Mary Ann Segrest Henry, was born about 1828 in Macon County, Alabama or possibly Georgia and died after 1880. Her siblings were Sam, Ann Elizabeth, Charles, George, Lou, John. Any information on this family will be greatly appreciated.

Good luck to you all, James Bryant 8-15-2004 Pearson, John Henry I am trying to document the connection James Henry (Jim) Pearson to the family of Jonathan J. Pearson and Elizabeth Buchanan of Talladega Co, AL.
Jonathan J. Pearson born 1832 in Bibb Co, AL married Elizabeth Buchanan born 1836 in Anderson Co, SC on 26 Feb 1857 in Shelby Co, Al.
Jonathan J. was killed/died of injuries in the Civil War at Vicksburg, MS 6 Jun 1863.
At the time of Jonathan's death he had three children: Mary, John and William. Another child was born after his death which is believed to be James Henry (Jim) Pearson on 7 Dec 1863.
I have the 1860 Talladega Co, AL census which list Jonathan, Elizabeth, Mary, John and William plus another female named Martha Buchanan female born in SC all living in the same household.
After Jonathan's death, Elizabeth Pearson is found on the AL 1866 census of Talladega Co as: Elizabeth Pearson - 2 males 0 to 10, 1 male 10 to 20, 1 female 10 to 20 and 1 female 20 to 30 and l died of sickness (veteran)
I have not been able to find them any where on the 1870 or 1880 AL census. It has been reported that Elizabeth married a Lovett. No proof.
James Henry (Jim) Pearson is my wife's grandfather.
Penny, Eugene Buck
My grandfather, Eugene Buck Penny, born 10 May 1857 in
NY. He died 22 Nov 1911 in Birmingham, AL. He owned property in Hillview
(Pratt City). He had four children by his first wife, Ann Pitts. After
her death he married my grandmother, Mintie Willis. He is buried in
Hillview Baptist Church Cemetery in Forestdale, AL. I would like to find
the names of his parents who were also born in NY. Robinson, Elizabeth My ancestor Elizabeth Robinson (1835-1892) is recorded in the 1860 and 1870 census of Pickens County, AL. In 1860 she is already married to H.G. Williams and they have three small children. The marriage likely took place around 1853.
I have not been successful in locating her in the 1850 census (age 15) or a marriage record for her. In all census records in which she is listed, the state of her birth is Mississippi. If memory serves me correct, this part of Alabama was in the "Mississippi Territory" in 1835. The 1880 census indicates that both of her parents were born in North Carolina.
L Wilson 8-27-2004 Twilley, James R & Pearl 1st is my great aunt Pearl Twilley born 1881 in Al.(sometimes shown as Pearle Twilly) married name Ledbetter (John E. or H.).
I believe she died in Dallas Co. Al. Unknown, Elce/Elsey My ancestor, Mrs. Ewell Crawford Ferguson, is listed as follows: 1860, Elce, age 23, born AL; 1870 Dilcey, age 46, born SC; and in 1880, Elsey A., age 46, born VA.
I have no clue about her maiden name or the names of her parents or siblings. No marriage record has been found for Ewell Crawford Ferguson (or any variation) to anyone. The family lived near Carrollton in 1860. (Pickens County, AL)
L Wilson 8-27-2004 Williams, Henderson G.
My ancestor Henderson G. Williams (1832-1897) is recorded in the 1860 and 1870 census of Pickens County, AL. He was born in 1832 - all census records indicate North Carolina as his state of birth. In 1860 he is already married to Elizabeth Robinson and they have three small children. It is probable that the marriage occurred around 1853. I cannot locate him in the 1850 census, where he should be listed as 18 years of age - possibly H.G. or Henry Williams, nor can I locate a marriage record. L Wilson 8-27-2004
