hello-- > >I am interested in genealogy of Carter, Davis, Butler, Kelley, Kelly, Singleton and Perryman families in Calhoun (Anniston) and Etowah (Gadsten) counties. >Particularly the Davis of Gadsten. Also the Kelly of Anniston and it's relation to the Perryman family of Anniston. My paternal g-mother, Curtis Lee Carter (born in Georgia -possibly Bowden- about 1886), married George Singleton Kelly about 1900 or so, possibly in Anniston and had son Arthur R, Kelly in 1903. GSK died, about 1910 or so, probably in Anniston and then Curt married Dorsie C. Perryman (also born in Georgia about 1886), in Anniston, raised ARK and several Perryman children, all this at 413 Glen Addie Ave. in Anniston. GSK and DCP may have been cousins. Next generation up from GSK and DCP are my current brick wall. My maternal g-mother, Lena Mae Carter, sister to Curtis Lee Carter, married Henry Law Davis around 1909 or slightly before, had 2 daughters, Dorothy Davis (b. approx 1910) and Edwina Clay Davis (b. 1912), they lived in Gadsten in 19-teens. My older brother recalls that HLD was a lineman, broke his back in job-related accident, prob. in Gadsten around 1920. But I have found him in the 1910 census listed as living in Anniston, employed as an insurance agent, and married for one year to my g-mother, Lena, both living with Lena's mother, Mrs. M. R. Carter, a widow aged 53. HLD is current brick wall in this line. Father of Lena and Curtis also brickwall, although their mother may have been a Butler, possibly in Bowden GA. Any information about any of these would be greatly appreciated. >Thanks, >Mike Kelley
