From: <Lecaverjr@aol.com> The Autauga Genealogical Society has arranged a trip to Wallace State Community College in Hanceville, Alabama on Friday - Saturday, June 6-7. Note: The library is only open on Saturday for special group requests - some may want to drive to the library just for the day Saturday. We will be leaving Prattville sometime on Friday, June 6, and will be returning on Saturday evening, June 7. We will be car pooling as a group. Each person is responsible for making their own hotel arrangements. Most of us are going to stay at the Comfort Inn, 5917 Hy 157 N.W., Cullman, Ala. 35058, ph. (256) 734-1240. If anyone would like to join the group, please let Larry know (see email above). We also need to know whether each person going will be driving their own vehicle or will be needing a ride with someone else. The best way to let Larry know is to email. Looking forward to our trip. Larry E. Caver, Jr. ph. 358-5351

Unfortunately, this is not the same Charlie Thornton. The one I've been looking into is Charlie F. Thornton, buried with both his wives at New Hope Baptist Church in Lightwood. I've since discovered (with help) census entries confirming that his father is James G. Thornton. Having said that, the Charlie F. Thornton I've been looking into is not known to be related to me, but is instead related via marriage to some of my relatives. I've been looking on their behalf, and in the hopes that it might lead to my own Thornton connections. My GG Grandmother was Eugenia Thornton, who lived in or near Tallassee in1880. So I'm interested in Thornton connections that I might be able to tie to her. Her parentage is a complete brick wall for me. Thanks, = Steve =

I would love to think that I would have time to transcribe names and scan in pictures to post, but a reality check tells me otherwise. If you believe that one of your ancestors attended at that time, or if you yourself did, then I will gladly check and send you any information I can glean from it on that person, including pictures - however, I must request that you please inquire about SPECIFIC names - not just requests for "a female Martin", for example.
