Their daughter Kitsy Ann married Sion Hutcheson (or variations). Alexander and Rhoda are found in Dale county in 1840 and 1850 census and Alexander bought public lands in Coffee County in the Haw Ridge area in the 1850's. After that they both disappear.

This has nothing to do with any surnames but thought you all might like to see it. <A HREF="http://www.genealogy.com/00000011.html">Click here: Genealogy.com: Word meanings </A> This is what caught my eye, the Jr realy had us going while doing research for the Grimes in Stewart Co., Ga. history book. When we use the words "junior" and "senior," we normally think of a father and son relationship. However, in the past, these words were used much more liberally and could refer to an uncle and nephew, or even to two people with the same name who were unrelated. Christine Grimes Thacker

Posted on: Coffee County Alabama Queries Reply Here: http://genconnect.rootsweb.com/gc/USA/Al/Coffee/10532 Surname: Harrison ------------------------- Coffee County. Homer, This Moses Harrison was the nephew of William Grancer Harrison. Charlotte Harrison, Grancer's daughter, apparently did not marry. Charlotte was living near Grancer and her brothers and sisters in 1860. Her son Moses was probably buried in Harrison Cemetery. However many of the markers were made of wood and have long since decayed.

Posted on: Coffee County Alabama Queries Reply Here: http://genconnect.rootsweb.com/genbbs.cgi/USA/Al/Coffee/10530 Surname: Wise ------------------------- Are you from Samson or Geneva, Alabama perchance? Lisa Parker is a familiar name to me from when I lived in that area, I just can't recall how I know that name! If that is where you are, check the archives at Geneva Publications and meet with the people in Geneva who own the Live Oaks Bed and Breakfast, that house was almost underwater in the flood of (I think this is the right year) 1929. All I can say is I lost my house in the flood on July 5, 1994...which is a LARGE part of why I no longer live in that area!!!

Posted on: Coffee County Alabama Queries Reply Here: http://cgi.rootsweb.com/~genbbs/genbbs.cgi/USA/Al/Coffee/10528 Surname: Thomley ------------------------- I am researching my family name Twamley - would be interested to know where Thomley originates from in your family.
There appear to be 2 Moses Harrisons. One was the son of William "Grancer" Harrison and died between the 1860 census and 1867 when the probate was filed. The other Moses was the son of Charlotte Harrison and grandson of William "Grancer" Harrison. He is listed on the 1860 census with her, age 20. Maybe this will eliminate some of the confusion about conflicting war records for Moses Harrison. Moses Harrison, age 30, son of Grancer, is listed on the 1860 census as head of his own family.
