You said you want anything related to Dallas County Genealogy so here is my stuff. I hope it will help me break my brick wall who is my great grandfather, Wesley J. WORRELL b 1811 in NC and lived in Severe Beat of Perry County,AL. I think all the WORRELLS buried in New Live Oak Cemetery are my relatives and descendants of Wesley J. A wonderful genealogist from Dallas County read an inquiry of mine about Calvin DeWitt WORRELL and sent me all this info. Here are my Dallas County Worrells: New Live Oak Cemetery, Selma, Dallas County, AL Benjamin Franklin WORRELL (1878-1944) Laura Ann JACKSON WORRELL (1881-1969) Willie Harmon WORRELL (1902-1984) Henry Avery WORRELL (1913-1964) Sadie R.

Here is my connection to Dallas Co. AL. James Dudley McCULLERS, b. 13 July 1860 in Selma, Dallas Co. AL. Parents: F. Moses McCullers and Pamelia McGRAW. Any information on these individuals will be most appreciated. Thank you, Arlene Hampton AHamptonResearch@aol.com

Hi Herman, I don't have a slave census record of Ezekiel B.Wilson. I do have a copy of a slave schedule from 1860 for Nathaniel, the probable brother of Ezekiel B. Wilson and his son (my gggrandfather) E. M.Wilson. Here it is: Dallas County, Page 79, Pence's Beat Line 6 E.M. Wilson 1 slave, age 33, male, black 1 slave, age 9,male, black Line 8 N. B. Wilson 1 slave, age 26, female, black 1 slave, age 10, female, mulatto 1 slave, age 6, female, black 1 slave, age 2, female, mulatto I hope this helps someone, because I certainly am not proud of it and hesitated to make a copy of it. Patty Taylor Walls, Mississippi

I had a John Meador left Will in Dallas Co ca 1833 , Was told he may have lived around there. Thanks. Virginia

I am interested in Ezkiel Wilson & Nathaniel Wilson. Does anyone have any information on whether they owned slaves. If so, does anyone have a list? Herman Walker

There's a Liberty Cemetery on County Rd. #2 from Orrville to Cahaba. The cemetery is located down a dirt rd. shortly off county Rd. #2. From the map, it looks like the 3rd dirt road to the right from Orrville to Cahaba. The cemetery matches the GPS reading. In travelling down this dirt rd, another dirt rd will be to the right--keep on straight til you reach a fork, bear to the left and the cemetery will be a short distance on this road.

Thanks . It should be near Orrivlle, or on road that goes fron there back toward Selma.Just want an idea about where to find it. Virginia

Thanks I went there and printed them off for use later. Virginia

Virginia Per the cemetery coordinates http://www.prairiebluff.com/algenweb/dallas/dalcem.htm list that Jim Crocker put together for the Dallas County website, Liberty is located at: Liberty Cemetery 321606N 0871054W Can't find my Dallas County DOT map to tell you exactly where that is but it's definitely in the southern part of the county. For the record, you can find any contemporary or historical place by using the Geographic Names Information System (GNIS): http://mapping.usgs.gov/www/gnis/ B.J.

Jim, I see the one your talking about. That put it in the southwest quarter of section 16, township 15 north and range 9 east. There appears to be another cemetery on the left side of this dirt road just a few yard down the road from the one you say is Liberty.

Some one help! Is this Cem near Orrville , Dallas Co. It seems some one told me that one time, years ago. I was looking for Meador's . Don't think marker was found , but was told they live near Liberty Cem. Virginia
