Can anyone help in researching this man. His father is G.A. (General Arthur) Davis). The information I have says that he was born 13 July 1920 near Enterprise, Alabama.

This is a Message Board Post that is gatewayed to this mailing list. Surnames: Grimes Classification: Bible Message Board URL: http://boards.ancestry.com/mbexec/msg/rw/3R.2ADE/638 Message Board Post: GRIMES FAMILY BIBLE INTRODUCTION NOTES: The original pages of the Grimes Family Bible made be view at: http://hometown.aol.com/claudelo1s/BibleGrimes.htm Translation and notes of the Grimes Family Bible made be found at: http://members.aol.com/_ht_a/eloisegrimesrat/william.htm William Grimes was born 1802. William married Lydia Smith, left Montgomery Co. Georgia, traveled through Coffee County, Alabama and, finally, settled in Santa Rosa County, Florida. This is the family Bible of William and Lydia, and their family. William's sister was Temperance Grimes. Temperance Grimes was born Abt. 1810 in Montgomery County Georgia, and died 1909 in Walton County Florida. She married Solomon S. Hamilton February 20, 1826 in Montgomery County Georgia. Solomon S. Hamilton, son of Stewart Hamilton (Rev. War Soldier) and Clarrisa Stringer was born in 1800 in Montgomery Co GA. The Grimes Family Bible This Bible is approximately 9 x 11 inches in size. It consists of the Old and New Testament of Our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. It was printed (in English) and published by G.M. Davison in Saratoga Springs (New York) during the year 1832 AD. It has been handed down through generations of Grimes descendants and is now the property of Eloise Grimes Ratliff, a great great granddaughter of William and Lydia (Smith) Grimes. The family history section of this book is placed between the Old and New Testament sections and consists of four lined pages. Each page is divided into two columns. The writing was done in ink and in some places it is faded or smeared beyond reading. The writing appears to have been written by several different people over a period of time. The numbering of pages in this report is in accordance with the way the pages are placed on The Grimes Bible website. If the reader is considering using this translation for documentation of linage, they should consider the possibility of error in both the entry of their ancestor and /or the translation by the transcriber. Transcribed by: Wynona Jennings Hamilton with the invaluable assistance of Ron Jones. All notes are by Wynona and any corrections, additions or questions should be brought to her attention at: OQWJH@aol.com *************************************** Page 1 left column of page Mary Graham in the yer was born in the year of our Lord the 11 Oct 18?8 Notes: Eloise has suggested that this may be the "Mary Grimes" who was mother of Martha J. Grimes. This would also account for the "Mary" who appeared on the 1850, 1860 and 1880 census listed with William & Lydia as their daughter. In 1850, Mary's age was 12, making her birth year 1838. The date Oct 11, 1838 would be a practical one for placing her in the Grimes family chain. George W. Grimes was Born 30 th July 1840 Notes: George was the son of William and Lydia Grimes. He did not appear on the 1850 Census with his parents, but...in 1860, he was in Santa Rosa Co Fl with William and Lydia. His age was 19, agreeing with the Bible date. He enlisted as a private with 1st Florida Infantry Confederate Army and served as a wagon master. George was listed as G. W. Grimes in the Santa Rosa County Florida Voter Registration for the year 1867/68. He was the only Grimes named. He married Mary C. -------. She drew a Civil War widows pension. Pension # 313312. Christain Grimes was Born the 28 th day of November 1842 Notes: (Christain) Christian was the daughter of William and Lydia Grimes. She was on the 1850 Coffee County Alabama Census with William and Lydia, her age 9 and born in Alabama. She next appeared on the 1860 census in Santa Rosa County Florida, age 17. Eloise referred to her as "Jayne"in her notes and there was a Jane with Liday on the 1880 Santa Rosa County Census. Her age then was 30 (?) and she was a seamstress. Christian Jayne (Jane) remained single. She had one child, Samuel. Samuel was born December 24th, 1881 (Sorrel family Bible). Christian would have been 39 years old at the time of his birth. Christian Jane Grimes died in 1927 (Florida death records) Lidia Grimes was born Decr the 5 th 1844 Notes: Lidia was the daughter of William and Lydia Grimes. Lidia's death is recorded later as November 26th, 1846. She probably was born and died in Coffee County Alabama and there is no other record of her. Tempy Grimes was born June the 19 th 1847 Notes: Tempy was the daughter of William and Lydia Grimes. Tempy appeared on the 1850 Coffee County Census with her parents. Her age was 3, agreeing with the Bible entry. Tempy remained single and died December 11, 1918 near Milton, Florida, her age 72. (death certificate). Tempy had one child believed to be Nancy Grimes, age 12, enumerated in the house hold of Liday Grimes in the 1880 Santa Rosa Co FL census. Page 1 right column of page Andrew Jackson Towson was born 15 th March 1844 Notes: Andrew Jackson Towson was the son of Fanny Grimes Towson, born 5 yrs after the death of Fanny's husband Wm Towson. Fanny died in 1849 and Andrew appeared on the 1850 Coffee County Alabama Census with William and Lydia Grimes. His age was 6 years, agreeing with the Bible entry. Eloise suggested that Andrew took the name GRIMES which is probably correct. Andrew was later entered in the Bible as A J Grimes. He married in 1865 and died in 1866. (Source Grimes Bible and Census records) Military record? Wife? Children? Hannah Grimes was born Feby 22 nd 1850 Notes: Hannah was the daughter of William and Lydia Grimes. She appeared on the 1850 Coffee County Alabama Census, her age 2 ( date of census was December 15th making her almost 5 months at the time the census was taken). She was enumerated on the 1860 Santa Rosa County Florida Census with her parents, her age 10. Hannah remained single and was still living with her Mother in 1880, Santa Rosa County Florida. Her occupation was servant. She had one child, Robert Grimes. Hannah died March 25, 1927 (death certificate). Ancestor of Eloise Grimes Ratliff. Hannah M. Grimes was born Sept 15 the -?- 1859 Notes: Hannah M. Grimes appeared on the 1860 Santa Rosa County Florida Census with William and Lydia Grimes, her age 6/12 (six months). Her parents unknown. There is two Hannah Grimes on the 1880 Santa Rosa Co Fl census. I am uncertain if she is one of them or if William and Lydia's daughter was counted twice. One was taken on July 17th in the household of Levi (Brown?) as a servant, the other July 22nd in Liday Grimes household as a daughter. Jess :?: Grimes was born July: th 25/1861 -?- Notes: this entry difficult to decipher. Identity uncertain. (Ron Jones suggested the letter(s) not clear may be "I". The date suggests possible "Julia" , daughter of "Mary" and ½ sister of Martha J. ) Martha J. Grimes was bornde March 17 th 1870 Notes: Martha Josephine Grimes was born March 17, 1870. Known as "Jo". On April 15, 1884 (age 14) she married John Ward in Santa Rosa Co FL. Family lore and her death certificate gives her mother's name as "Mary Grimes" (see notes on Mary Graham). She had an older sister named "Julia"(source: Ron Jones, great grandson of Jo ). In a letter from Josephine Ward addressed to Berti Grimes, she signs her self as: "your cousin with love Joe" (source: Eloise Grimes Ratliff) ****************************** Page 2 left column of page Isham Foster was born the 12 th Feb [this could be 17 th 1807 Notes: relationship to the Grimes family unknown. Wm Grimes was aa in the year of our lord 1802 Dec 1? th Thursday Notes: If written today, it would probably read: Wm Grimes was born on Thursday, Dec 1?, 1802 AD. I (Wynona) think the little "aa" means AD. Census records give his place of birth as Georgia. William married Lydia Smith on May 13, 1824 in Montgomery County, GA (source: GAGENWEB Montgomery Co look up). William has Civil War record (Confederate). He has one known sibling, Temperance Grimes Hamilton. Lydia Grimes was born aa in the year of our lord Notes: Wife of William Grimes. Has the date faded to nothing or not filled in at all? Census records give her place of birth as Georgia. Birth dates are inconsistent but probably sometime between 1800-1808. Spelling variations for her name: Lydia, Liday, Ledia. Fanny Grimes was born aa in the year of our lord 182? March the 7 on Tuesday Notes: birth year for Fanny uncertain making it difficult to place her in the William Grimes family chain. (see notes on Andrew Jackson Towson). Delila Grimes was born aa in the year of our lord 1826 Decr 26 on Monday Notes: In the Brackin Letters her name was spelled: Delilia. Her death certificate confirms her parents as William and Lydia Grimes and place of birth as Montgomery Co GA. Her family settled in Walton Co FL early 1870. She maintained a close relationship with her Grimes family re: Brackin letters dated 1882. (source: O.Q. and Wynona Jennings Hamilton; Dana Brackin Troublefield) Page 2 Right column of page Matilda Grimes was born aa in the year of our lord 1828 Nov th/26 on Wednesday Notes: Matilda was the daughter of William and Lydia Grimes. She is addressed as "Sister" by Delilia Brackin (Brackin letter # 1) She married an unknown Smith. Fanny Smith (picture) may be her daughter . The Tempy mentioned in her letter as Delilia's niece may be her daughter. Wm Wilkerson Grimes was born aa in the year of our lord 1831 February on Saturday (My computer will not let me spell this incorrectly. The Bible leaves out the first "r" in Feb.) Notes: Wm Wilkerson was the son of William and Lydia Grimes. He was named as William on the 1850 Coffee Co AL census, age 18 and born in Georgia. In 1860, he was residing in Covington Co AL in the Rose Hill area, living with the Strickland household and working as a farmhand. His sister, Delila Brackin, was nearby. He served with an Alabama Unit (Confederate) during the Civil War as W.W. Grimes. Lucretia Grimes was born aa in the year of our lord 1833 June 18 Tuesday Notes: Lucretia was the daughter of William and Lydia Grimes. She married Martin Thompson. (See marriage entry for "Crecy Grimes") They were living in Pike County AL in 1850 and Santa Rosa County FL in 1860. Lucretia died in 1877 and was buried at Coldwater cemetery in Santa Rosa Co FL. ( Source: Gaylier Nowling Miller and Bill Eoff.) John/ames Grimes was born aa in the year of our lord 1835 Nov th/29 on Sunday Notes: the name is written with one large "J" with "ohn" above "ames". John James was the son of William and Lydia Grimes and the first child born in Alabama (1850 census). He served with a Florida Unit during the Civil War (Confederate) as J.J. Grimes. He is mentioned in the Brackin Letters as "Brother John". There was a John J. Grimes in Walton Co Fl in 1880 believed to be him. The letter names his wife as "Mary" the census as "Margaret". He had children. The "oldest" one (name unknown) died in 1882(source: Brackin letter # 1) ********************************** Page 3 Left column of page Fanny Grimes was married December the 12 th 1838 to Wm Towson Notes: see notes for Fanny Grimes birth. Delila Grimes was married to Mathias Brackin January the 11 th 1844 Notes: see notes for Delilia Grimes birth. This marriage date does not agree with her pension application records (Jan 1845). Mathias died in 1873. Delilia died in 1918 and was buried in the Alaqua Methodist Church Cemetery in Walton County Florida. Her headstone reads: "Grandma Brackin". Her obituary published in the Defuniak Springs Harold Breeze newspaper reads in part: "Grandma Brackins, an aged resident of the Alaqua Community died at the home of her son Mathew Brackins" Crecy Grimes was married April the 17 th 1850 Notes: see notes for Lucretia Grimes birth.

Surnames: Goodson,Leatherwood,Kennington,Pettus, Classification: Query Message Board URL: http://boards.ancestry.com/mbexec/msg/rw/3R.2ADE/635 Message Board Post: Looking for any information on my grandfather's siblings. My grandfather was John Bean Goodson. One brother was W D Goodson(known as Uncle Bud) who married a JoAnna(known as Jodie). The children I'm told are Roy, Charlie,Ruby,Ona,Ora. My understanding was they lived around Opp, AL. I would like to know where they are buried. I have that Uncle Bud died in 1961. The other brother I'm looking for is L Matt Goodson and he married a lady I knew as Aunt Tura. They had a daughter named Mary Emma Goodson and she married a Junior Collier. I understand Uncle Matt is buried in Kinston but I do not know exactly which cemetary. My John Bean Goodson married Lura Pettus(known as Mamie, she was the granddaugter of John W Kennington and she lived at Clintonville, AL. when she married) I find my Goodson families between Coffee and Pike Counties too many times and it's getting kinda confusing.

Hi Shirley, According to an index of marriages in Coffee County, Alabama, the marriage of "W.P. Rudd to Susan Prescott" is recorded in Book 2-378. W.P. is William Penn Rudd and the marriage occurred on april 24, 1881. What other Rudds are you researching in Coffee County? I have two gr-gr-uncles who lived there and died there. Wm Penn is related to me as well though through a different line to an earlier grandfather.
