I am researching the family of James and Margaret Townsend of Fayette County, AL. They are in the 1860 census with children Ben, Josiah, and Mary. Ben was killed in the Civil War at the battle of Richmond, VA and is buried in the Hollywood Cemetery there. James Jr and William moved to Arkansas in late 1869/1870. I can find no data on Josiah after the War. Mary J. Townsend married J. C. Jenkins on Oct. 2, 1890. The Townsend family has Aston's Store listed as their Post Office. William married Milly Freshour, daughter of George and Priscilla Williams Freshour of Fayette County. James Jr's wife was named Sarah but I do not know her maiden name. I would like information on the area of Aston's Store as well as information on the Townsend family. ANYTHING you can contribute will be appreciated. emmaparker10@hotmail.com _________________________________________________________________________ Get Your Private, Free E-mail from MSN Hotmail at http://www.hotmail.com.
