Surnames: WEBB Classification: Query Message Board URL: http://boards.ancestry.com/mbexec/msg/rw/xhC.2ACE/721.2 Message Board Post: I have a John WEBB who was born in GA -- I have 1834, but that might be off a year or two -- and the last place I have him living is in DeKalb Co, AL in 1850 (also appears in 1850 Census in Harris Co, GA with a sister) which appears to have been taken in 1851. I know very little about him -- he is rumored to have died in the Civil War, but we have not been able to confirm this. We also don't know if he married or not. Other than his father, mother and siblings names, that's all I know about the man. I'm building a database of all John WEBBs who served in the Civil War and then I will start eliminating those who are known to be the children of other people, those who are way too old/young to be mine. I hope this will leave me with a reasonable field of candidates to research thoroughly -- i.e., buy pension records, death certificates, and the like. Think there is a possibility yours might be mine? Even if not, do you have his Civil War Service info (military unit) etc. ! to put him into my database?
