Hi: AL Archives in Montgomery cannot find a death certificate for Harvey Coleman, who died in Eutaw, Greene County, AL in the Novemebr 1978. He is buried at Beulah Baptist Church Cemetery. His birth date is circa 1881, (multiple records have various dates). Is anyone available to look to see if there is a county record, so I can get the certificate number? Paid the AL Archives already, but I guess I will have to send them the certificate number. Maybe he did not get one for some reason. Very confused. Relative remembers date, and Harvey Coleman is on the SSDI for that time. Any suggestions, assistance, etc. would be greatly welcomed. Thanks in advance.

Hello I am seeking info on possible location or holding of one Dr. William Patton (of Knoxville , Greene Co, AL) journal. He was born 10/1794, father was Dr. Thomas Patton, and he died: 4/2/1872. I am given to understand that this journal was quite extensive in its information concerning other family members. Thank you for any help Lisa Coultrup

Thanks, Becky. Here are some names for the roll call. Betty Duckworth, Jackson MS

Researching the Permenter (Pormento) family on the 1860 Greene County census. Robert Permenter married Nancy M. Smith in 1871. Any info would be appreciated. Thanks, Vicki

I am researching my ggg grandparents, Alexander and Elizabeth Brown Thompson of York County, SC. After the death of Alexander Thompson in SC, Elizabeth Thompson moved to Greene County, Alabama, with her sons and daughters. These children married into the families of Gates, McDow, Posey, Webster, Anderson, Means, and Davis. Any information or connections would be most welcome. Dorothy O'Neill in Jackson, MS

George, I've also been looking for a Stuart connection in the Greene/Pickens Co. area. If you could keep these names for future reference as you research Stuarts, I'd really appreciate it. Martha Stuart m. James Davidson b. 1799 in SC. They lived near the border of Greene/Pickens and were probably married there. They had at least one child named Martha Stuart Davidson, b. 25 Dec. 1831 in Pickens Co. (The name of Martha Stuart Davidson's mother comes from her death certificate.) The Davidson family moved to Noxubee Co., MS when daughter Martha was a "little girl." In Noxubee Co., James Davidson was living next to the Hugh E. Stewart family. (Hugh married Elizabeth Cockerham.) James Davidson had these other children, but I don't know if Martha was their mother. (He appears to have been married three times.): 1. William Patton Davidson, b. ca. 1829 2. Rosannah Davidson, b. ca. 1835; m. William E. Bird 3. Rebecca J. Davidson m. John S. Chambers 4. John Alexander Davidson, b. 23 Nov. 1838 5. James Davidson Jr. I have been unable to connect this Martha Stuart/Stewart or Hugh Stewart to any family in Greene & Pickens but am always hopeful...

I am researching the James Henry Avery-Permelia Oliver line. They lived in Forkland in the 1850's and early 60's. Eventually moved to Canton, MS right after the war. Tom Roe

Yesterday, someone wrote about the Morrow Family of Greene co,AL. Cant remember who it was. I descend from the Morrow Family of Greene co,AL. They came to Greene co,AL between 1818 and 1820 with my other family, Henry Storey. Jane (Janet) Morrow, daughter of Samuel Morrow (Rev war vet) married my GG Grandfather, Henry McCrary Storey, son of Henry Storey. On page 14 of the " Heritage of Greene Co,AL" book that Sybil mentioned yesterday is a bit of history of the family. Ophelia Phillips Morrow wrote a book, Morrow COusins, which is the history of the Morrow family there but unfortunately, I do not have a copy. Several MORROW family descendants live in Eutaw, AL today. Harold Wright Madison, AL.

I have no specific evidence that any of my ancestors were ever in Greene County. If any were it would have been before 1823 or so. I am interested in Stewart/Stuart and Davis family that may have come through Greene County. I am especially interested in any connections between the two families. My dead-end has for years been my GG-Grandfather, William Davis Stuart of Neshoba Co., MS. He gives his birthplace as AL (1823) and at least once gave his father's birthplace as KY. I recently matched (Family Tree DNA Project) to the known descendants of James and Mary Lafferty Stewart/Stuart of old Augusta Co., VA. Many of their descendants moved through various parts of KY in the late 1700's - early 1800's. Since the early years of Greene Co., KY included Stuart & Davis families and hoping that my William Davis Stuart got his middle name from a Davis family I am looking here.

Hi Becky, I'm researching Ward, Edwards, McDow in Greene County. Best of luck in your new duties... I've a question for Sybil N. Phillips. I notice you are reseaching Edwards. I'm looking for information about Dr. Achilles Edwards from Kentucky and his life in Greene County, if you have information about my Edwards, any help would be greatly appreciated. I know Ward and Edwards are very common names. In searching for my family line Ward is my "brick wall". Mel Ward ps. Becky, hope I got it right this time.

I'm researching the following surnames: The Bonds and Johnsons/Johnstons lived in Mantua, now part of Greene County but in Pickens County before the Civil War. Bonds: (William Turner Bonds, 1801-1875 and family). He is buried in the Old Hebron Cemetery near Mantua/ Union. Johnson/Johnston: (Elizabeth Johnson/Johnston Bonds and her Johnson/Johnston line) (Also buried at Old Hebron Cemetery. Caldwell: (Martha Caldwell Johnson/Johnston) Otterson: (connected to the Johnstons) Morrow (Ophelia Morrow married Richard Coleman Bonds, son of William Turner Bonds and Elizabeth Johnson/Johnston) Bouchillon/Bouchellion: (Richard Coleman Bonds' second wife was Frances Ann Bouchillon, after Ophelia Morrow passed away). Anybody out there heard of these folks or have any info? I can't get beyond William Turner Bonds (my 3 greats granddaddy) with any certainty. He came from Newberry County, SC and seemed to be familiar with the Lavenders, Morrows, Masseys, Jones, Johnsons/Johnstons, Stricklands, Hollands, Burnetts, etc... May all of you have a blessed 2005, Brantley Bonds

Sybil, Good to see you still on the net and I also want to thank you again for your extensive work on the Heritage of Greene Co,AL book. Its an intergral part of my genealogy library. You helped me write the article for my STOREY family as well as research on MORROW family of Greene co,AL. I am still working on putting a Revoutionary War tombstone in the old New Hope Presby. cemetery for my GGG Grandfather, Henry Storey. He came to Greene Co,ALin 1820 and founding Elder of the Church. May need your help as to who currently owns the Church and cemetery grounds. Thanks again and Becky really got the Greene Co,AL homepage family listing cranked up again. Never seen so many inquiries. I asked her to put STOREY and MORROW families on it.
