I would very much like to have a copy. My grandmother was Nannie Olivia Wallace. Her line includes John Leith Wallace, Matthew Wallace and John B. Wallace (a private in the Revolutionary War). They all resided in or around Bibb. Nannie's mother was Mary Elizabeth Pratt if you have any information on her. Her brother, Mathew Duncan Wallace, was, I believe a Presbyterian minister. Thanks for any or all of your help. If you have any expenses with this, I will be happy to reimburse you.

Can anyone tell me when Walter C Duff died in the 1800's. Ingrid

Joe, Have you checked St. Clair Co. and Jefferson Co. Alabama? I have a large McLaughlin family which settled there. It would not be that big a stretch for Charles to migrate to Perry/Bibb from the area since it is fairly close. My family patriarch was John C. McLaughlin and he came to St. Clair Co., through Tennessee but the border between Tenn, SC, & NC changed a few times. I believe that John also had a brother named Daniel but have not positively confirmed it. You might do some searches in that area and Tennessee as well (my notes say Washington Co.) and see what you turn up.

Hello, friends, and families in my tree!! Charles and Serena were married in 1830, according to some information in my files, but Nancy Irene McLAUGHLIN was b. June 22, 1844, and in the settlement of the estate of her grand father, in the TUBB family, she is the only survivor of her mother, without other siblings. This pair of parents were married for 14 years, before any children were conceived. And apparently, Serena expired when Nancy was born. Quite unique, as I see it, but that is what the record shows. Or, do I have some error in my records? Charles is said to have been born in North Carolina, but nothing is known of where, in that state. Serena was b. in Perry Co., where her TUBB family had already been living for some time, having migrated from South Carolina, earlier in the 1800's. I hope to discover older members of the MCLAUGHLIN family, in North Carolina, but I have no idea where to look! Can anyone help? Thanks for any information. Joe DUKE

Also, check the Alabama Secretary of State website for early land records. They have many records earlier that BLM. They also have plats and surveyors notes. It is a great resource. The problem is that they are not indexed. You have to search by township, range and section so you need to know about where your ancestors lived. I had Graves ancestors in Lowndes county who arrived about 1818. BLM only had a few records and nothing earlier than the 1820s. I found their orginal 1818 and 1819 land grants and many additional grants on the SOS site. John John K. Brown jkbrown2@knology.net "Honesty is the Best Policy, but Insanity is a Better Defense."

Ed, Bibb county was not created until 1818 from Monroe and Montgomery Cos. There is an 1816 territorial census for sereral counties in Al. I believe these were abstracted and published by the Alabama Gen. Society years ago. The territorial censuses are in the American State Papers.

Thanks Melanie, I will call and speak with the pastor. Some are saying that there is an African American Cemetery right behind the church.
