Hello: I do not have Odom ancestry or connection thereto that I know about. Don't know if this would help you, but in the Pine Level community near Jay, Florida, in 1920's and 1930's there was an Odom family. I do not remember the adult names but there was a son called Joe Buck Odom. Don't know if he is still living, if so, he would be probably in his 80's. We all went to Pine Level Baptist Church. I remember him as having broken an arm trying to balance & walk on a wooden lot fence, which was the enclosure of our barn yard. My father set his arm and it was later reset (crooked) by a professional. A letter to editor of Milton Gazette or Pensacola Journal might help you. Gertrude J. Stephens

Please contact me at canebrakesociety@yahoo.com or conecuh_hs@hotmail.com or give me a call at The Evergreen-Conecuh County Public Library at 251/578-2670 Monday thru Friday. As the Conecuh Co. representative for AL Cemetery Preservation Alliance, I am dedicated to locating and preserving the final resting places of our ancestors. We need your help.

Hello: Jan, I don't seem to have a Daniel Johnson in my family that I could prove. In my books there is reference to Daniel Johnson, with whom I did not make a connection. It seems that my father did talk of a Dan Johnson though. In the family of George Washington Johnson, Conecuh Co AL: 1860 Census: Johnson, George 31 b AL Martha 29 AL Henrietta 4 AL Mary 2 AL James 10/12 AL 1870: " Martha 40 AL Henrietta 17 AL Elly 12 AL Daniel 7 AL A duplication of 1870 census shows: Martha 48, Henrietta 15, Eleanor 9 and Dan C. 6. 1880: Johnson, Martha 50 AL Nancy E 18 AL John D. 15 AL George and Martha lived near Breckenridge and Guice's Old Mill, near Evergreen AL. In the 1970's the homestead was still in the hands of descendants. Records of the Witherington Cemetery in Lyeffion Community, or nearby, show that Henrietta and George W., Jr. are buried there. Nancy Eleanor married B. McMillan and moved to Many, Louisiana, leaving her share of the estate to her brother, "Dan" whose descendants owned the place at that time. George and Martha are buried in Witherington Cem. I kind of think these belong somewhere in my family but don't know where. I did two books on the Johnsons. I am sure there were Johnsons in Conecuh Co that I could not connect because the courthouse burned 3 times. My father had a good memory and the names he gave me, I was able to locate through profuse letter writing in 1960's and 1970's. Almost all the Johnsons who came into Conecuh Co early (1820's, 1830's etc) were from SC. Do you have information on the Stith family? I think I have Stith ancestry from Virginia and into NC, I believe it is. In

Mrs. Johnston: I sent e-mails yesterday to the address for the Library and yours. Both came back. I may have left a letter out but don't think so. I would like to know the schedule of Mrs. Salter. Have been in touch with her and would like to help her if I can. I have both Johnson and Salter of Conecuh Co. She seems to have done a great deal of research which, I know, is difficult when records are so scarce. I believe she said she would be there Aug 5 at 7:00 a.m. Doubt that I can make that. Need to know the schedule to see if I can try to be there at some point. Thanks. Gertrude J. Stephens
