Is there anyone on this list that presently lives in Henry Co.with easy access to the Probate Court?

Georgw W. Pittman b. Feb. 25, 1840, d. Apr. 23, 1892, serv. 6th AL Inf. CO. A, bur. Gordon City Cem. Houston Co. m. Aug. 29, 1868 Dicie Odum b. Apr. 13, 1838, d. Mar. 14, 1914, bur. Gordon City Cem. Houston Co. AL. In the 1870 census Henry Co. AL they have Franklin Gunn age 14, Mary Gunn age 12, and Cora Odum age 6 living with them. In the 1880 census just Cora listed as daughter age 16. I have assumed that Dicie was a Gunn who had m. 1st an Odum. Does anyone have a Gunn/Odum connection? Is anyone researching the Gunn or Odum families? George was the son of Timothy and Margaret Priscilla Evans Pittman. Thanks, Julia

Richard, The cemetery records for Dale County show no Fears at all at Grimes or any- where else in the county. Deo Vindice, Homer

Am looking for burial place of Grizell Jane Fears.Think she may be buried in cemetary @ Grimes. Diedin Dec. 1911. Any info please respond to RTrawick@Worldnet.ATT.net.

Here's an impulsive one, but that's me. It's 11:56 a.m. Eastern time and I'm walking out of the door in Columbus, GA, heading to the Mt. Pleasant Church / "Wiggins Church" cemetery off U.S. 231 right now to check it out for Daniel Wiggins family buried there. If anyone in the area would like to meet me there and look it over with me, COME ON. We can "get together and talk over old times". :) I'll be there today in about around 1:30 (Eastern) or so.

In a message dated 99-10-20 22:05:52 EDT, you write: << I don't have any real 'history' of Pond Bethel, but the plaque on the church reads it was established in 1856 >> Sorry, but I should have included that John owned the proberty in 1856 according to the land records. John's wife Drucilla Evans Glover died in 1859 and he in 1862. If you ever come across these names with cemetery info please let me know. Margie

Thanks, I have been to the little church, it sits in the middle of John Paschal Glover's property. John died in 1862 and the land was sold. Thanks, Margie

Sharon, Checked the Grimes list for Starling's and there are none recorded as being buried there. Deo Vindice, Homer

Thanks. Maybe ours tie in together in Essex.

John Starling and his son Solomon moved to Henry county about 1825. John died in Henry county sometime between 1830 and 1840. He is listed on the 1830 census with several minors who I believe are his grandchildren. He is not there in 1840. I think that he is buried in a neglected Starling Cemetery where Solomon and Sussannah Strickland Starling are buried.(just heard of it never seen it) John is the son of John Starling who left a will dated 1820 in Columbus county NC. John Jr. was probably born in either Northampton county NC or in Robeson county NC. I Have more information if you are interested. The STarlings in Pike county AL descend from Henry William STarling another son of John Starling and brother of Solomon. Henry moved to Pike county around 1840 and John owned land in Pike county, don't know if John ever lived on it.

I have benjamin doswell md Lizze E. Starling b. 24 Oct 1883 d. 18 Apr. 1931 md 30 Dec 1905. In one of the Starling family Cemeteries in Henry, can't tell you where it is located.

Hi Patricia, I just sent off another quick e-mail to Donna and Deborah that list what I could find real fast on my husbands STARLINGS. I missed some of the earlier messages about the Cemetery at Grimes. Do you have a list of everyone buried there.... or is there one available somewhere? Thanks so much for your response and everyone elses, too.

Hi Deborah and Donna, Wow, this is really cool. I ask about the LONGS and get a response from two of you about the STARLINGS. My husband is Robert Starling and his people come from the Henry Co. area. Let's see what I can find real fast. Roberts grandfather was Alfred Jasper (Jack) Starling, born 1900 in Geneva, Ala, great grand father......Alfred Issac Starling, born 1866 in Abbeville, Henry Co., Ala gg grandfather..........Alford Starling Born 1825 in Fairbluff, N.C., ...died Feb 1905 in Abbeville, Henry Co., Ala. ggg grandfather......Solmon Starling, born 1791 in Fairbluff, N.C.....died July 1874 in Abbeville, Henry Co., ala gggg grandfather....John Starling, born @1763 in Fairbluff, N.C......death ??????

Sharon, My husband's LONGS are from the OK panhandle and AR. I bet there are some of your father's relatives buried at Wiggins. There's several STARLINGS in this cemetery. Patricia Long jalpal@snowhill.com

Say, I've got a Starling married to one of my lines. I am researching Doswell & Adams families all born in Abbeville, back to about 1800 and was from VA before then. I'll go look it up.
