Would your Frank's parents have been Seaborn and Susan? And would Lula have been a Tubbs? I can tie the Frank and Lula Shaw I have to the north Chilton County Shaws, but they were married west of Birmingham and that is where I lost the trail. Perhaps they moved down this way to be near other Shaw kin? Any thoughts?

Surnames: Thrower Classification: Query Message Board URL: http://boards.ancestry.com/mbexec/msg/rw/VS.2ADI/22.149 Message Board Post: I found my ancester in the 1860 Census of Coosa County Alabama. Those listed at Wetumpka Prison begins on page 115 HH 833/842 of the 1860 Census of Coosa County Alabama Southern Div., Post Office Wetumpka, "State Prison as Alabama Penitentiary." Prison guards are listed followed by alphabetical list of convicts, age, perhaps the date they entered the prison, and reason they were there. An interesting history of the prison is found at this Alabama Department of Corrections site: http://agencies.state.al.us/doc/history.htm which states the prison was completed in 1841 and ".....Except for a few hardened criminals, most convicts were pardoned for the war. In the spring of 1865, the Federal Troops released all convicts, except one who remained voluntarily at the Walls....." So if your ancestor was a prisoner there in 1865 he was probably released. Does anyone know the district and page number of the 1870 census of Elmore Co, Alabama that lists convicts at the Wetumpka prison ? Thanks Mary L Prewitt

NC in 1859? I know Shadrack got killed by Indians about 1862, but never really found out what happened to the rest of the clan. Speculation has it that Catherine (Baker) Calloway died in 1889 in MO. The last mention I have of Catherine is in the 1880 census of TX where she and her daughter Mattie werre both declared widows while Mattie was raising her son Tom Fitzwater. I appreciate all and any responses.

The Autauga Genealogical Society will meet in Prattville at the Prattville Library on Sunday, January 19, at 2:00 p.m. The program, "Using Vital Records in Family Research", will be presented by local author and compiler, LARRY E. CAVER, JR. Larry has written several books and is very knowledgeable about genealogy research. The February meeting will be on Sunday, February 16. ROBERT S. DAVIS, JR., Director of the Family and Regional History Program at Wallace State Junior College in Hanceville, Alabama, will be our guest speaker. He has published more than 600 articles and 30 books and is a nationally recognized teacher of genealogy research. His most recent book, "Tracing Your Alabama Past", is a comprehensive reference book on Alabama research. He will not be able to sell this book at the meeting but it can be purchased through local book stores or the Univ. of Mississippi Press. He will have some of his other books for sale at the meeting. Copies of his most recent book will be available to preview and I'm sure he will be glad to autograph his new book if you have already purchased a copy.
