Nelda, I checked, and your John Smith's estate was a barred claim. This meant for whatever reason it was denied/barred from consideration. Usually, it meant it wasn't submitted in time. The disallowed claims give the most genealogical information. What are you hoping to find re your John Smith?

Nelda These claims are available online in two places - Ancestry.com and Footnote.com. At Ancestry.com, John Smith est. is under the "disallowed or barred" claims. It appears the heirs filed the claim indicated that John Smith was deceased, but they did not give a date as to when he died. Filing the claim were John Smith, Tempy Smith, Patsy Smith and Sukey? Smith (this last one is difficult to decipher). There are only 5 pages including covers. The claims was filed on two horses taken when Wilson came through. Hope this helps!

I checked all the census reports, 1850 to see because Jonathan married a Martha Beal in 1852. this was one of problems I had because my ggrandfather Johnny Franklin, would have been a baby, It does show him later at about 13 years old with his daddy and step mother. he referred to her as Fannie, my mom said. Someone had told us the courthouses in some of those counties had burned. We were going to Selma to research and never made it. If you are in Petal ms are you in Perry co.ms? Can't remember, we lived in Ocean Springs for 50 years.There were Perry's living there at one time. sorry I'm not much help.

I am very interested to now if she is Benjamin's sister. Dee Kruse and I tried to figure out her parents several years ago without success. Some Taylor marriage: Perry County, Alabama Elizabeth Taylor m James Harvey 29 Dec 1832 (Have seen her name Louisa) Pleasant Taylor m Jane Weaver 4 Sept 1835 O E Taylor m Malissa Prestridge 13 Feb 1845 Jonathan Taylor m Sarah Jane Perry 14 Jul 1845 Dallas County, Alabama Sarah Jane Taylor m Bejamin F Perry 22 Jun 1846 Pleasant Taylor and Jane in Lafayette County, MS in 1850 with seven children. Onan Taylor and Malissa in Dallas County in 1850 with William Taylor and Mary Harvey age 10 Sarah Jane Taylor and Benj F Perry in 1850 Perry County, Al. Census with Elizabeth J age 2, Mary Angeline age 6/12 and Louisa Harvey age 12 Do you have anything on the death of Sarah Jane Taylor Perry? She is not in the 1880 Census. Also, I have the date on Benjamin but not where he died.I assume in the Civil War It would not be unsual for a Oliver Perry Taylor to be in Bibb County. The County lines of Bibb, Perry, Dallas and Chilton are all so close, at one point it is called the Panhandle because they come togther. My great grandfather was raised in the Panhandle. He was Benjamin and Sarah's son. I lived in Selma, Dallas County all my life until two years ago when I married and moved to Petal, Ms. I loved going to the land where the Perry famiies lived. The old Perry Cemetery was just six miles from my house, but it was destroyed in the 1940s by a farmer. There was a head stone left with the name John Perry inscribed thrown against a fence. You will find very few Perry graves in the Cemeteries becsause they were all buried in the family Cemetery which was destroyed. This makes research VERY HARD... There are a lot of Taylor families in Selma, Al. Thanks, Mary Important Note: The author of this message may not be subscribed to this list.

I wrote the archives of Alabama and got a copy of Pleasants estate settlement, and the will. It is signed B.F. Perry, Sarah J. Perry, his daughter and two sons, Jonathan and Onan E. Taylor. It gets confusing because Jonathan Taylor married Benjamin Perry's sister Sarah Jane Perry.He later married a Martha Beal. I have applied for membership in the DAR, have had to prove all this, don't know whether they are going to accept. it. Really love finding out info of my ancestors.
