If you find something that connects to you, you can either post a message to that person in the forum (http://forums.about.com/ab-huntsville) or come to next week's chat and see if they show again.

Looking for information on the following family JOHN JOHNSON was born 1803 in South Carolina. He married FERNATY ALFORD, daughter of ARCHIBALD ALFORD and ELIZABETH. She was born 1813 in Georgia. Place of death for both is unknown. They married 23 Sep 1832. They lived for a number of years in Cherokee/Etowah Co. Children of JOHN JOHNSON and FERNATY ALFORD are: i. ROBERT ANDREW JOHNSON, b. 1834, Alabama; d. November 18, 1897, Hokes Bluff, Etowah Co. Alabama. ii. MARTHA JOHNSON, b. 1836. iii. ADELINE JOHNSON, b. 1838.

MARION JOHNSON, b. 1843. vii. NANCY JOHNSON, b. 1845. viii. BENJAMIN JOHNSON, b. 1847. ix. THOMAS JOHNSON, b. 1849.

John and 'Penatia' are living next to Baldy and Elizabeth in the 1850 census in Alford's Bend, Etowah Co., AL. She is listed as Penatia in Cherokee Co., AL 1850 census, Page 74b.

Need additional info to be sure. The one possible link that this may be my ggrandfather is the child William S? Can't make out the middle initial on the census. Looks like an "S", can also be an "A" or a "C". My grandfather is William C Tolbert. Anyone have anything from this family that list's William's name better than the census did would be greatly appreciated. Thank you for anything you can provide. I'm at a dead end here.

Posted on: Cherokee Co. Al Query Forum Reply Here: http://genconnect.rootsweb.com/gc/USA/Al/Cherokee/10634 Surname: ------------------------- The cemetery is currently known as Fugatt cemetery, but is has been known as Lizar Lope cemetery. Depending on how you are coming into the area, gp to Blanche (either by Al hwy 35 or by Al hwy 273). From Blanche, continue north on 35 and turn right onto county road 103. It shows on the AL DOT map that the road will turn into a dirt road, continue on 103 until it intersects with county road 66. turn left onto 66 and then take the next left onto county road 66E. At the end of this road is the cemetery. If coming from Chatooga Co., GA, take county road 103 into Cherokee County, fork right onto county road 66 and follow previous directions.

Do you have a book of Mrs. Margaret Stewart's called Cherokee County History, Vol. ii, and dealing with officials and government? If not, I have it and will share a few things I found about Riley Cunningham. The only bit about John F. Hogue that I found off the cuff is that he served as Circuit Clerk--as you said--beginning in 1893 (it says here). Riley A. Cunningham was his Dep. which I presume means Deputy.
