This is a Message Board Post that is gatewayed to this mailing list. Classification: Query Message Board URL: http://boards.ancestry.com/mbexec/msg/rw/xhC.2ACE/752.1.1 Message Board Post: The original message indicates a residence in Lowndes County about 1850. Although I have not checked the census, Lt. Col. May appears to have been living in Conecuh County in 1860. Of course the man you wish to identify may be any one of those on Ken's list. It seems more likely that he was a militia officer. We would need a first name and middle initial before going forward with this search.
