Posted on: Coffee County Alabama Queries Reply Here: http://cgi.rootsweb.com/~genbbs/genbbs.cgi/USA/Al/Coffee/10368 Surname: PARKER ------------------------- Looking for family information on Glenn Theodore Parker
Grant, It sounds very plausible to me that the Shadrick Dykes, age 28, born in GA, married to Eliza, age 25 and also born in GA, is the son of Nathaniel and Temperance Jeter Dykes. Nathaniel, born in 1792 was the older brother of my Shadrick Dikes/Dykes who married Elizabeth Reeder. It would be very reasonable for Nathaniel to name one of his sons after his brother. This is what I will assume until proven otherwise. I've been trying to figure out why my Nancy Jane Dykes, daughter of Shadrick and Elizabeth, was listed in the HH of Samuel Wilkerson/Wilkinson in the 1860 Barbour County census. Now I think I may have figured it out, they were all relatives and I think it goes like this: Nathaniel Dykes (brother of Shadrick) was married to Temperance Jeter and they had a child named Elizabeth "Betsy" Dykes (Betsy would be my Nancy's 1st cousin). "Betsy" married Asa Wilkinson who had a brother named Samuel Wilkinson (who married Elmira Tew). Now, I think my Nancy just happened to be at Samuel and Elmira's house when the census taker came around in 1860, wouldn't be the first time that children were not counted in their own home but were counted in the home of other relatives and/or friends. I have another family in my line where the children were counted twice, once at home and once at their grandparent's house. Anybody else out there think I may be right? (or wrong?)

They had 2 unnamed sons born between 1815 -- 1820 and 2 other unnamed sons born between 1820 -- 1825. The information is from a source I know is reliable and I think it is based on an 1830 or 1840 census. As you know, those census records did not have names or ages of children. They were listed as "Number of males between 0 and 10" or "Number of males between 11 and 20" Shade age 28 born GA fits. Nathaniel DYKES may have been in GA about 1822. I think Nathaniel DYKES was in SC until about 1815 then moved into GA. Stewart Co. GA is oneplace to look. Seems like a lot of Barbour families were there first. However, proximity is not proof. Nathaniel could be on a list of War of 1812 land grants or some other record. I'm not actively researching DYKES but Nathaniel's daughter married Asa WILKINSON. Then Asa and Betsy had a son named David and a grandson named David Nathaniel WILKINSON.

Posted on: Coffee County Alabama Queries Reply Here: http://cgi.rootsweb.com/~genbbs/genbbs.cgi/USA/Al/Coffee/10367 Surname: Holley, Aplin, Bowers, Henderson ------------------------- Robert, In reality all three Holley lines in Coffee,Covington and later Geneva Counties are tied togather even though talking to the Older "klan" none of them admitted kinship or spoke to the others..... NOT Unsusal if you know or knew the Holley's of S. Ala. Elam Quitman Holley was born 21 Jan 1801 in NC, he moved with his family through Alabama to a community in N Miss where he, along with his family and slaves operated a grist mill, the Community that sprang up around the Mill was known as Holley Springs, the present day name for the town is Holly Springs, Miss. When his wife died in 1844 he moved back to Alabama where he operated a mill on what is now Dead Holley Creek near the Old Hosea Holley Plantation about 6 miles from Kinston, Ala. near the Coffee, Geneva County line. He died in 1847. This was taken from the obituart of his son Zephiniah Jasper Holley age 104 in 1934. I descend from this line through his son John and through eronous information given to me early on in my research I am very familiar with all the Lines you are researching from S.Ala. Please feel free to contact me directly at rholley@aol.com Bob Holley

Posted on: Coffee County Alabama Queries Reply Here: http://cgi.rootsweb.com/~genbbs/genbbs.cgi/USA/Al/Coffee/10364 Surname: Holley ------------------------- Dear Bob Bryan, Thank you so much for your response to my post on the Holley's of Coffee & Covington County, Alabama. The information you shared with me has provided me with an additional source of wealth on the Holley family. Words can't express my appreciation. However,I do have one more question for you if you can help. In starting my research in Coffee & Covington County I had to separate three (3) different Holley families. I have found that two of the families are related. I am now working on the third and am being told that Elam Quitman Holley b.January 21, 1801 - d.April 24, 1847 who married Salley Godwin, b.August 17, 1801 - d.July 22, 1844 is the son of James II Holley (b.1774), James I Holley (b. 1750), John II Holley (b.1715), John Holley. If you have any information that will connect Elam Quitman to this line I certainly could use it. Thanking You, Robert D. Cassady RCass5841@juno.com

It's not one of my main interest families, so I don't have a LOT of data on them. You'll want to start with my data base at http://pages.prodigy.net/billpayer/master.htm. This Tew family is the same Tew bunch that comes from Sampson Co, NC. I also strongly suspect that the Tew's, Strickland's & Wooten's all traveled together from Sampson Co, NC to Barbour Co, AL in 1841 ..... but I can't proove it yet. It's too much coincidence they all left NC, all intermarried, & most joined the War together. IE: W.R. Wilkinson, Company E of the 33rd AL Inf < http://www.e-civilwar.com/33rdalabama/companye.htm >. If ya go to the website for the Historical Society for Sampson Co, NC (Rootsweb??) & get in touch with Jerome Tew that runs it, he may also be able to give you some data...... like his paper called "Tews of NC"..... there's also a copy of the Sampson Co court minutes (a compilation) that makes for interesting reading. Like one of the Tew's sued one of the Wooten's in 1814...... <g> (Jerome is a busy boy...... I have year-old copies if yer too impatient). I tie in with Zach's older brother John TEW in Barbour Co, AL (when he marries a Wooten gal he'd have known from the trip from Sampson to Barbour Co) ....... then they (& most of Alabama it seems) took off for Walton Co, FL. Those folks working on the Windom & Anderson families in Walton Co & Haynes family from Covington Co, may also have something to add. Anyway..... go look at what I've got. Gimme a yell if you spot any errors & maybe we can swap GEDCOM's or something. (There's also a privatized GEDCOM at my website). Here's some bookmarks that may/may not be of some help at: http://pages.prodigy.net/billpayer/genealogy.htm (ctrl-F to bring up the search dialog box....... then look for TEW, for starters). Also please notice I've got 2 stray ADKINSON kids living with the Wooten/Peeples family. I can put you in touch with the young lady that has some knowledge about them.
