Terri, Thanks so much; I had read some time back that an elderly gentleman w/ that name had served as Chaplain, Co E, 7th Ala from Barbour; age and location is right, must be him. Thanks. Deo Vindice, Homer

Homer, Do you have anything in your records on John Marion Faulk b. 1840 Barbour/Dale Co. The only info I have says he was killed during the Civil War. He was the son of John S. Faulk and Mary Gilmore Faulk. Thanks Cindy

I've been told that some McKays are buried in a cemetery near the Pea River, north of Ozark. I wonder if it could be the Pea River Presbyterian Church. Do you know if the church and cemetery are on Highway 231? thank you. betty

Terri, Below is a reprint from an insert in a recent "Friends of the Library "bulletin regarding Roquemore Cemetery. I have not visited this cemetery but as soon as the weather cools off I plan to. It sounds like it is close to the Russell Co. line but I believe it is still in Barbour. ================================================= Marie Godfrey searched for this cemetery when doing research for her books. unknown to her - she found it. She recorded some of the graves in her "Cemeteries in Barbour County" but failed to find the ones she was looking for. Somehow, through the years, the broken tombstone was uncovered and put together revealing the Roquemore name and dates from a time long past...Sacred to the Memory of H?P Roquemore, born April 6, 1818, died Sept. 22 1879. The cemetery lies at the north corner of Rocky Mount Road and Highway 431, twelve miles north of Eufaula. Further proof that this is indeed the Roquemore Cemetery can be found in Helen Foley's "Alabama Series-Vol II (Deaths)," Here we find the notice that 'George Douglas, infant son of Mr. and Mrs. Geo. Stovall was buried in the Roquemore burial ground, twelve miles north of town.' Only three other graves have names: (1) Elizabeth Silas-only daughter of J. and M. Silas, born 4-23-1831, died June(?) 1851; (2) J.L. Abercrombie b. 3-30-1831, d 10 -01-1861. The third tombstone is broken but the name appears to be Joh_n-son of J.J. and E.C.F....(?). The other letters are missing, but I think that the name is probably Franklin. The Abercrombies and Franklins were early families of Russell County and had large tracts of land in the area. I have found only one reference to a Mary Silas who married John Stratford of Fort Mitchell, AL. There are six brick and concrete graves made with big double sized bricks. No names are visible. There are many sunken places and some mounds of dirt, indicating other unmarked graves. One of the early property owners was Couric. Later, it was purchased by the Garrisons and the land surrounding the cemetery was planted in pine trees. This corner of the property was left unplanted and it remained untouched for many years. It now belongs to Ronnie Marshall who has bulldozed up to the marked graves. Many unmarked graves were in some of that area. He said he intends to hand-clean the remaining area and mark it as a cemetery. I hope he will! The epitaph on one grave reads: Ere sin could light or sorrow fade Death came with friendly care The opening bud to heavan conveyed And bid it blossom there. Forgotten and uncared for - but the names and families of those buried ther speak volumes about the early history of our area. -Contributed by Ann Bowden Corcoran ========================================================== Richard Price SOS 6-3

THOMAS, Hiram Wade, son of Morton THOMAS, early settler of Barbour Co, who moved to LA. Hiram "Wade" *might* have been the following CSA soldier: THOMAS, Wade MS Cav.

Doris, There was a John Strickland from Pike; appears on the NARA list as John Stricklan; appears in Murphree's Pike list, the Rgt History and Pike Cemetery records as John Strickland. Enlisted about Apr 1861 as Pvt, Co I, 15th Ala Inf Rgt, age 18; Sep 7, 1842- Mar 20, 1888; buried Belser Cemetery, Pike County; There was also a Capt William H. Strickland who served w/ Co I of the 15th and also survived the war, but just barely. Deo Vindice, Homer

I think I might have eliminated most of the AL CSA units as a possibility for Charles E. THOMAS, son of Morton THOMAS, who was an early settler of Barbour County, AL and later moved to LA. There are two other Charles E. THOMAS possibilities listed in the CSA index: THOMAS, Charles E. LA 9th Inf Co F THOMAS, Charles E. MS MS 1st Lt. Arty Co G. There is a web page on the LA 9th Inf Co F at: http://tcc230.tripod.com/9thlainf/Page_9x.html Co F described at: http://tcc230.tripod.com/9thlainf/Page_16x.html THOMAS, Charles E., age 25, resident of Mansfield, LA, private, Wounded in Action 4 May 1863, Fredericksburg, Retired due to wounds. Could this be the son of Morton THOMAS? Anyone have easy access to LA CSA service/pension records? Would be happy to trade for AL CSA service/pension records. Thanks, Terri

I can't add anything to Terri's list unless as she said, you had a MI. there are about a dozen who served from Ala w/ A. plus initial. Deo Vindice, Homer
