Another thing is if anyone had an ancestor that was in Alabama prior to it becoming a state, they can get their "First Families of Alabama" certificate - I think from the Birmingham Gen Soc, or the BPL - delilah ----- Original Message ----- From: "Bill and Nita" <azguns@cox.net> To: <marlo7down@yahoo.com>; <alautaug@rootsweb.com> Sent: Saturday, March 10, 2007 8:10 PM Subject: Re: [ALAUTAUG] A Reply to Cindy Owens Taylor Family | Bobbi, | | Do you have an email address for this Cindy Owens.?

Are you connected to | them also? | | Thanks, | | Nita Boirum | | | Families: LEE, TAYLOR, TRAYWICK, SUMMERLIN, SHEPPARD, BARLOW, | | | | | ----- Original Message ----- | From: "Bobbi Chase" <marlo7down@yahoo.com> | To: <ALAUTAUG@rootsweb.com> | Sent: Friday, March 09, 2007 5:26 PM | Subject: [ALAUTAUG] A Reply to Cindy Owens Taylor Family | | | Cindy, I am attempting to learn if any of the persons | in early Autauga Co. were related. Having read your | info regarding Benjamin Taylor and descendants I | noticed some errors that you may not be aware of. See | the following where I have made corrections. | | Your info: .. 3 Susan D. Graves b: Jul 16, 1818 | Autauga Co., AL d: Nov 22, 1846 | | Correction: The State of Alabama was not created until | Dec. 14, 1819. The Alabama Territory (not the State | of Alabama) was established in 1817 from the western | half of the Mississippi Territory. Further, "Autauga | Co., AL" was not created until Nov. 21, 1818 and it | was created from Montgomery Co. of the Alabama | Territory. | | Thus, one could state the following: Susan D. Graves | was born in Montgomery Co., of the Alabama Territory | in the part of the county was cut off to create | Autauga Co. | | Your info: 2 Frank Taylor b: Aug 21, 1795 Autauga | Co., AL d: Bef. 1836 Autauga Co., AL | | Correction: Am not sure if you meant to state that | Frank Taylor was born in 1795, Autauga Co., AL. | | The Mississippi Territory was created May 7, 1798 and | included what would eventually become the States of | Mississippi and Alabama. As stated above, the portion | that became the Alabama Territory in turn became the | State of Alabama, but not until Nov. 21, 1818. The | State of Mississippi was created on Dec. 10, 1817. In | 1795 what would eventually become the State of Alabama | was totally occupied by several Indian Tribes. | Therefore, it appears your Frank Taylor may have been | born in the State of Georgia. | | Your info: 2 Francis Taylor b: Nov 22, 1796 Autauga | Co., AL d: Jan 16, 1873 Autauga Co., AL | | Correction: Regarding the birth place of Francis | Taylor, refer to Frank Taylor above. | | Your info: .... +Joseph Lee b: Oct 9, 1791 m: Dec | 16, 1812 Oglethorpe Co., GA | | Correction: Regarding the birth date of Joseph Lee, | refer to Frank Taylor above. It appears he may have | been born in Georgia. | | Your info: 2 Martha Taylor b: Jul 27, 1797 Autauga | Co., AL d: 1873 Milton, Autauga Co., AL | | Correction: Regarding the birth date and birth place | of Martha Taylor, refer to Frank Taylor above. | | Your info: 2 Ashberry Cooke Taylor b: Jul 23, 1812 | Autauga Co., AL d: 1860 Mulberry, Autauga Co., AL | | Correction: Regarding he birth date and birth place | of Ashberry, refer to Frank Taylor above. | | Bobbi | | | | | ____________________________________________________________________________________ | Expecting?
