I'm trying to find informatin on how my great uncle, Thomas Rosier Fleming, died at such a young age. He was born 22 Oct 1868, the oldest child of his parents. He came with them in 1876 to the Mulberry Baptist Church, joined the church on 20 Aug 1887, and was buried there after his death 3 Jul 1890. His father William Jasper Fleming was a "great pillar of the church" and he and Thomas's mother, Mary E. Fleming, are also buried at Mulberry. Fortunately I knew both his brother, my grandfather Robert Fulton Fleming, and his sister Corderie Ann (Bonnie) Fleming. Unfortuntely I didn't evey know about Thomas until they had both died. TIA, Alice Fleming Campbell

First I want to thank everyone who replied with info on the 1900 census request! I am curious if anyone has access to a marriage index that would cover the years of 1889-forward to about 1910 roughly??? If so could someone check for the marriage of a Melissa/Malissa Gore. My thanks in advance. Julia

Could you please email me off list again. Julia

There are some 28 Gore entries listed for Chilton in 1900, but not for that name. I didn't go through them, however. = Steve = -- Steve W.

There isn't a Melissa/Malissa GORE indexed. Could she be listed under another surname?

If you subscribe to the message board for Chilton County . . . forgive the double-post. This excerpt is from page 264 of the above book: "Left on this road to a junction with another unimproved dirt road 4 m.; R. on this second road across a small creek where gold is sometimes panned. At the fording place occasional tiny flakes of gold may be seen in the creek bottom sand. The JIM COBB HOUSE, 4.5 m., is a three-room, frame structure (L) built in the early 1800's. The original whipsawed boards are still in place in the inner walls. When the War between the States began, Jim Cobb and his brother organized a group of men, unofficially, whose avowed purpose was to kill deserters from the Confederate Army. The families of some of the men that were killed retaliated by organizing a group of their own. They attacked the Cobb house and, after a three-day battle, broke into the barricaded room, took Cobb and hanged him to a crab-apple tree. The tree is not standing, but the bullet holes are still visible in the walls of the house. In the rear of the structure is the old Cobb family burying ground with the red brick va! ult, grass-grown and weathered, where Jim Cobb is buried. The Cobb family meet in this cemetery each Fourth of July for a family reunion and barbecue." Which brother is this story referring to? And maybe I missed it but I never heard about a "three-day battle"? Interesting description though . . . is the house still standing I wonder? Melissa --------------------------------- Do you Yahoo!?

The Autauga Genealogical Society will meet Sunday, November 21, at 2:00 p.m. at Peoples Bank, Main St., Prattville. We are pleased to welcome a well-known speaker ~ Beth Gay of the Ellen Payne Odom Genealogy Library in Moultrie, Ga. Beth is a regular columnist in magazines and newspapers and is best known as editor of The Family Tree, the largest genealogical publication in the world. She has presented programs in many states and Scotland. The topic of her program is "Your Body is Your Best Evidence". We welcome all visitors and hope that we will have a "full house" for Beth's program. Handouts, if any, will not be available if you are unable to attend the meeting.

I understand that Betty Collins is no longer active in genealogy.

Jim Last I heard she was wrapping up the Chilton County Loose Records project to prepare them for filming. I believe she is a member of the Chilton County Historical Society. I don't have her contact information, but I can refer you to a few people in the society whio can probably get you in touch with her.
