I am trying to find out any information about Rhoda Baker. The 1860 census shows that she was in the household of Edmund Martin of Madison Station. If you have any information pertaining to Rhoda I would greatly appreciate you contacting me with that information. Thanks. Adrian Baker Sent from my iPad

Author: matchka Surnames: Holiman Halliman Classification: queries Message Board URL: http://boards.rootsweb.com/localities.northam.usa.states.alabama.counties.chilton/2675/mb.ashx Message Board Post: Looking for information on Ose Holliman located in the 1900 census in Chilton county with his wife Rosa. They had married Sept 1889 in Chilton county also. I have found Rosa's line but cannot find anything on Ose. Really not sure of the spelling of the first name or variation of the last. He was born in Aug 1880 (yes missed the census) in Alabama. There are Hollimans in the Autauga county, descendants of Gillis Holiman. Based on DNA links I strongly suspect that Gillis is closely related but I cannot find the missing link. Appreciate any help or ideas here.

Sunday, October 19 at 2:00 p.m. Location: 131 North Washington Street, Prattville, across from St. Mark's Episcopal Church, Prattville. Catherine Evans Davies, Ph.D., Professor of Linguistics from the University of Alabama will speak on "The Southern Accents of Jimmie Rodgers and Hank Williams". This presentation examines accent as a dimension of the Southern dialects of Jimmie Rogers and Hank Williams, who represent two generations of speakers of “Piney Woods Southern”. Analyzing both recorded song and speech, Dr. Davies shows similarities and differences between the vernacular speech of these two founders of Country Music. The personal histories of the two men are considered in terms of the effect on their accents, and the presentation includes sound clips that the audience participates in analyzing. Dr. Davies holds a Ph.D. in Linguistics from the University of California at Berkeley. Dr. Davies came to Alabama in 1989. She teaches courses on Introduction to Linguistics and on Variation in American English. After coming to Alabama she became fascinated with Southern speech and so her research has explored this topic. Information: Vice-President D T Crowley at 365-4713
