Hi, Richard, thanks for the offer - you are a brave man! :-) Looking for marriage license for Charity JOHNSON to a SHEPHERD around mid to late 1840's, Judge JOHNSON to Mary A. ?, around mid 1850's, Timothy Green JOHNSON to Della, around early or mid 1880's and William Washing JOHNSON, to Cynthia Jane DEESE, around mid 1880's. Thanks so much! :-) Lyn McIntosh-Sherwood

Terri, My first thought was Ray Simmons but since I could not locate any new info in it since the Godfrey surveys, I don't believe it is his work. I also think he would have taken credit for his work. Richard Price SOS 6-3

Richard, I saw your post in the Barbour obits; Worthy J. Grubbs, Jan 1, 1820-Aug 24, 1890; Lt, Co E, 7th Ala inf/Lt, Co B, 4th Bn, Ala Cav/Lt, Co I, Jeff Davis Legion; buried Louisville; was he the son of William and who did me marry? the dates I copied and who he married don't seem to mesh w/ yours. Thanks, Deo Vindice, Homer

Thank you so much. I know there are several other Anderson researchers for Anderson family from Barbour and I know they will appreciate it also. Glenda

Richard, Sounds great. If you do find that copies will be for sale, please advise; I have them for Coffee Dale, Henry and Pike; Barbour would be a great addition. Thanks, Deo Vindice, Homer

John, I don't know if it is available or not. I came across my used copy in a little unorthodox manner. Richard Price SOS 6-3

Glenda, Looks to be probably 80 or more entries on Andersons. I will post it for you in the next few days. Richard Price SOS 6-3

Lyn, One out of four. That is all I could confirm. Here are the only things that come close: Charity Elizabeth Flournoy to Thomas Sheppard, 7 Jul 1870 Eliza Johnson to Harris Sheppard, 29 Apr 1871 James Johnson to Mary Ann Catin, 16 Sep 1841 T.G. Johnson to Della Hagler, 3 Nov 1882 Nothing at all on Deese or Dease - Johnson or Johnston Richard Price SOS 6-3

Richard, Thanks for the generous offer. Is this book for sale? Thanks, John Gilmer

Richard, Please look up the marriages of my Anderson family? I know this is a lot to ask but I can be patient and will gladly return any favor I can. Thank you for your generosity. Glenda

To all Barbour listers, I can now do lookups from the Warrine Sheppard Hathaway book, "Barbour County, Alabama Marriage Licenses, 1838-1930. If you want a complete listing of a surname however, it may take a week or more. I will occasionally post to the list, various surnames without prompting as time permits. Richard Price SOS 6-3

In the old section of Fairview Cemetery at Eufaula there is Confederate Section containing 45 markers; one is an infant and another a lady who d. prior to the war; the remaining are marked mostly w/ CSA and numbers which I figure are keyed to a list of names; a much lesser number had names; the following are those I was able to read: G.W. Gibbons J. Johnson, d. 1863 W. Johnson, d. 1863 J. Linds Geo McNaughton Ben Thorn If anyone has anything re the numbered graves, please post it to the board; I figure there must be a hospital record somewhere that could identify these lost souls who certainly rate something more than numbered graves. Thanks, Deo Vindice, Homer

Homer, My DB shows that Worthy Jordan, s/o William Grubbs Sr. was b. 1820, married Mary A.S. (unknown). He died 1895. They had a son also named Worthy Jordan Jr, b. ca 1856, no further info available. William Grubbs Jr. had a son Worthy J. Grubbs, b. ca 1837, married Sarah Jane Loveless, and died 13 July 1862, I believe in the WBTS. I have also seen his name as Worthy J.G. Grubbs in some records. This is the W.J. Grubbs that after his death, his wife married W.L. Eastridge and moved to Bullock Co. This is the only Worthy I have personally search so it is the only one I am sure of. Go to the Grubbs postings in the BIO section to see what I my DB shows with respect to the big picture. I believe I have one of the marriages wrong on the BIO however. I believe Lucitta Martin was married to John Tillman Grubbs. So many Worthy J. Grubbs, it is quite confusing and I can't be 100% sure my DB is correct. Richard Price SOS 6-3

Terri, These are great!! I have found family for my Confederate soldier's burials on every one you have put up; you have saved me some kind of work and I appreciate it very much. Thanks, Deo Vindice, Homer

In the spring of 1901 he entered upon the life insurance business in which work he canvassed all the adjacent counties. Mr. Ballard has for year taken an active interest in agricultural pursuits.

Terri, Bonnie, Homer and all, I was surprised to find a new book in the Eufaula library today called Barbour County Cemeteries, Cemetery Index. It is a nice hardbound book, 167 pages with 10,684 entries. It looks as if it was put together on an Excel spreadsheet. There is no publishing, copyright, author, or any other credits listed in the book whatsoever. I have no idea where it came from or who placed it there but as soon as I see Mrs. Margaret Slade, I can probably find out. It is nicely laid out by cemetery and should be an asset to researchers. The only problem with it, is that it appears to be the same info as documented by Marie Godfrey in the 60s. There has been several thousand burials in the last 35 or 40 years since Mrs. Godfrey did her surveys in addition to the many graves that were not marked then where family has since placed markers. I do not know about the availability of the book or anything but I will try to find out. Richard Price SOS 6-3
