I do know that Thomas Strickland substituted for Hugh Hathorne during the Civil War and that Hugh later moved to OK. It has been speculated that Thomas Strickland also moved there but there is no proof. He is not listed after the 1860 census and his wife stated that his time and place of death were unknown when she applied for his pension. Thomas and Lucinda Peeler Strickland's daughter Mary Ann Strickland married John T (Thomas?) Clifton and thier daughter Georgia Ann Victoria Clifton married James Samuel Mitchell. As far as I know everyone stayed in Randolph Co, AL with the exception of Thomas Stickland.

If you can tell me who her parents were I can possibly help you more. Also my great grandmother was a McGlon, could have been McGaultney, as you probably know lots of names and the spellings thereof changed and some dropped the Mc and Mac's. Please let me know if you have anything additional about your Browning that may help me. Thanks Deone

I am looking for a Cemetery in coffee County. It is probably 8 to 10 miles west of Enterprise. I believe it is located on Highway 87. The name of it is Mt. Gilead. The community used to be called Bradshaw. There is a church by the Cemetery yard. I am not sure what the nomination it is. If anyone can help I would appreciate if. Do you know if it is online or if there is an abstract, and how I can obtain one? Jean
