    1. William Walter Spoon 1878 - 1944
    2. This is a Message Board Post that is gatewayed to this mailing list. Classification: Query Message Board URL: http://boards.ancestry.com/mbexec/msg/rw/RS.2ADI/1525 Message Board Post: Looking to establish parents of William Walter Spoon. He married Elvy E. Wise in Walton Co, Fla. She is buried in Old Dorcas Cemetery, FL. Uncertain of his burial place. They had these children: Horace (Haris); Maggie; Agnes; William (Bill); Clayton; Lewie. We believe he lived in the Andalusia area before coming to Fla at the turn of the century. His mother's maiden name MAY have been Burgess. Any help (or possibilities) you can give would be greatly appreciated.

    1. William & Polly Johnson 1850 census
    2. This is a Message Board Post that is gatewayed to this mailing list. Surnames: Johnson Classification: Query Message Board URL: http://boards.ancestry.com/mbexec/msg/rw/RS.2ADI/1520 Message Board Post: I am interested in a family on the 1850 Covington County census, page 133A: William Johnson - 66, NC Polly Johnson - 66, SC Elizabeth Lawrence - 15, AL Nancy McCormick - 11, AL William McCormick - 9, AL You would think that the youngsters with William and Polly were probably their grandchildren? In the household just before them, is the Henry and Mary Ann Hart family. Then in the household just after the Johnsons is the Carr and Nancy Hart family. I wonder if Mary Ann and Nancy were possibly daughters of William and Polly. I cannot find the Johnsons on the 1860 census anywhere, but Henry and Mary Ann Hart are on the 1860 Conecuh County census. On the 1870 Conecuh County census, page 170A is the following household: James Johnson - 54, GA Susan Johnson - 27, AL Polly Johnson - 85, NC James Johnson was my gg-grandfather. His wife Emily died March 1870 (the 1870 Conecuh Mortality Schedule). Susan was one of their 4 daughters. You would think that Polly was probably his mother. I conjecture that the Polly Johnson, wife of William, in Covington County in 1850 was probably the Polly Johnson with my gg-grandfather on the 1870 Conecuh County census. Does anyone have any info on this Johnson family? Ken Johnson Jackson, MS

Josh m. Catherine Matilda Gunter then Melinda Gunter. Lewis m. Rushing Hall then Cynthia Teal. W. Lewis Harrison( William was known as Lewis) was very "tight-lipped" about talking about his parents but one day sitting on the front porch talking with son, Leroy, he said they were illegitmate children (meaning W.L., Joshua & Mary). He knew his father was a 'SCOTT' but his mother kept her Harrison name. His father SCOTT fought in the Civil War in Kentucky and NC. W.L. said his great-grandmother was a full-blooded Cherokee Indian. Any information will revive me.

Shirley's Daddy, George Ezra McLeod says the old home place is still standing in Opp, Covington County, Alabama. They would like to go to see the place before he dies.
