The Autauga Genealogical Society will meet this Sunday, September 21, at 2:00 p.m. at the Prattville Library. John Enslen, Attorney from Wetumpka, will speak on the Poarch Creek Indians. Anyone interested in genealogy is invited to attend - membership in the Autauga Genealogical Society is not required. We regret that we are unable to post or mail handouts. The Society has planned a field trip to the new Georgia State Archives at Morrow, Georgia, on Oct. 3-4. Participants may travel alone or may travel with a group which will meet at 7:30 a.m.- 8:00 a.m. in the parking lot behind Herrod's Chevron in Prattville (across from Prattville Baptist Hospital). We will spend Friday and Saturday researching at the Archives, returning late Saturday afternoon. Most of the group will stay at Days Inn - Southlake, 1599 Adamson Pkwy, Morrow, Georgia, ph. 770-961-6044 or 1-888-757-3297. This hotel is located within two miles of the Archives and offers a special "Georgia Archives" rate, $45.00 for the night, for those who request it. Each person is responsible for making hotel reservations. Please email Larry Caver at [email protected] if you plan to participate. He will have information about the research regulations at the Archives.

I have Bryant Smith and Lucinda York Smith living in Coosa County, in the 1850 and 1860 census. The rest of the family moved to Talladega and Clay County. The Smiths disappear after the 1850 census. Any help would be appreciated. Lucinda Smith was born in MO. Thank you. Cindy Siron

Mary: I have some Smith connection data within the family but no John Griffin or Lavenia. There are some at Talladega Springs Cemetery, South Talladega County on the way from Marble Valley Coosa to Fayetteville AL in Talladega County, but I don't remember a John G. There is lots of listings in the Coosa 1850 Hatchett Creek District Census located on the USGENWEB/AL/ Coosa page.

My great great grandparents lived in Coosa Co. before moving the Fayettville, Ala. are which was nearby. John Griffin Smith and Lavenia Baldwin, Smith I would love to find the area where they lived. Can you help me? Was it Marble Valley? Thank you, Mary Elizabeth Hill

HI Lisa: I have a J.B. Morris b 3/18/1859, d 3/17/1940 and wife C.I at Weogufka First Baptist Cemetery Coosa County. Also there is a W.J. Morris b 6/26/1816, d 12/25/1908 and wife Epsie there. I don't have the dates but there are Morris' at Holly Springs which is near the Pine Grove cemetery, its not on the maps and there is another Pine Grove South Coosa also. The Morris' at Pine grove, Marble Valley, is Jesse P. b 1796 SC , d 1877 AL, wife Mary A. b 1797 SC, d 1877 AL. Son Allen E. b 1/5/1841, d 11/13/1862. The 1850 census list Jesse and Mary with children Jackson, Marion and Francis (M) all born in GA. I want to get back and photo the Pine Grove cemetery but its not been a good year weather wise, hope we have a better fall for genealogy research. I have a one page MS Word doc on the above Morris' that I can send to anyone who needs it.

Nova, Warrren and family were living in Coosa Cty (Wetumptka PO) in 1860. From 1855 to 1877 they had 9 children: John b1855, George b1856, Elbert b1860, Warren Jr. (My gfather b1862, Sarah, b1866, Wyatt b1867, Josephine b1873, Charles W. b1876 and Mary b1877. The family reappears in the 1870 and 1880 Carroll Cty , Ga. census I have not been able to find any record of children in Ala or Ga. The only true records I have are the marriage copies of Warren and Priscilla which Coosa Cty provided. We might be talking about two entirely different Morris families, but in those days, they were probably related. If you find any connection, please let me hear from you. Ennis

Joy: There were some Turners who settled in Calcis (Shelby County) in the late 1880's. E. A. Tuner, Jr. was our neighbor, until he died in the 1970's. Does any of this sound familiar?

Hi Nova, I have tried to locate Turners who lived in the Coosa County area during the 1830s but haven't found anyone. Have noticed any Turners while researching the Morris-Harrison families? Thanks, Joy Turner

There are some of the older Morris' buried at the old Pine Grove cemetery near Holly Springs cemetery. The only way to Pine Grove is from the Marble Valley to Unity road now. These Morris' are listed in the Coosa Census of 1850, this census is on the Coosa USGENWEB page. I had looked at these for someone out of state some time ago. Will be glad to help any way I can.

Hi Ennis, Thank you for answering my post. I am searching for a James B. Morris born 1821 Coosa County, who married a Nancy Harrison born 1821 GA. They were married on the 24 September 1844, Coosa County. I have been searching for them for the last fifty years. I have nothing to go on. I have no parents or siblings for either James are Nancy. I have a feeling that they are connected to the Morris at Marble Valley. They were my great grandparents. Have you ran across them in you search of Coosa County. I have their history from there to Arkansas, to Illinois and then go to Texas. He was a Baptist Minister, yes, I have checked with the church and found nothing to help me there. Do you have an extra James B. that you that could be him? [Grabbing at straws] Nova Morris Wade

My Great-grandfather was Warren Lawrence Morris (1831-1883) who married Amerantha(or Aramantha) Priscilla Hendrix on 17 Mar 1859 in Coosa Cty, Ala. He is buried in Bowdon, Ga. No record of Priscilla's place of internment. Would love to know if we are connected. Ennis Dewberry Austell, Ga. 30l06
